Hater999 has it right. I had a 2002 lumina SS back then and LOVED it. So the LS motors are also pretty familiar.

LOL! Im laughing my socks off! Baby rolls royce! Its true! And the SRT8 in black is a real sweet car. My only issue with another HEMI is they are supposed to change the looks of both the 300C and Charger next year... Im kind of waiting for the new ones if that were my way to go.

The CSV... it is fast! I remember racing a manual when I had just my heads and it still inched away. It still got a 1/2 car ahead. So the new one has slightly better TQ and HP numbers. Its a monster. But Do I need another monster?

All your points Hater999 were valid, but sadly left me with even more confusion! lol.

130 kilos? That is impressive if you are talking about muscle mass.

Oh, btw, I've decided that I have a project, that I will continue working on till I hit 1000 bhp... which isnt really far off now... In a few year, and 2 turbos, Ill be there.

So I need a nice, sort of luxury, sort of powerful car, that has a decent resale value... So Im going with a Nitrate silver colored Caprice SS. Gonna get all the paperwork finalized tomorrow.

Thanks everyone, especially hate999.

Im just sad that the caprice looks really bad in black... I'd love another black car. lol.

One question: Why didn't you choose a Lumina SS?

He got it. The difference in Lumina SS and Caprice SS is that Caprice is way Luxuries, offers same power, same performance, yet almost same price.

Yes. Same exact motor, same exact transmission. The Caprice weights just 200 kilos more.

So for a difference of 20K I get a really luxurious car with a Lumina SS motor.

I had a 2002 Lumina SS, and it was a very cool fast car. But as I said, I have a 600 bhp charger, and I have plans for the next few years to hit 1000. God willing. So now I wanted a nice luxury-ish car with some power.

6 speed auto, 6.0 liter V8, 360 hp... Very nice I think. for the price range as well, you cant beat it.
