I bought another car to keep the miles lower on the s2k, 24k+ miles a year is expensive on tires and gas so i got a faster 2nd car for daily driving.

hehe anyone wanna race lol

Is that the new 4WD Camaro GM's been talking about?

Joey, that's a huge GAP between the fenders and wheels, right?

Congrats on the second car, but eeeewwwww, a domestic.

Just kidding. . .

Now, you will think your S2K has no power at all once you drive that for a while. Did you get 6 speed or Auto? Also, you need to get a flowmaster exhaust if it dosn't have one

Man, are you in for a shock. LOL: (although I think u were J/K) I usually get around 17-19 MPG on my Formula, and a set of tires is around $650. I tried the cheap tires, but the sidewalls are way too soft. Just like driving a Buick.

its a 99 Z28, 20k miles, 6spd, leather, t-tops, and monsoon system. Person before me already put a flowmaster on there not sure what series though sounds like my friends 80 series. the passlock system fuggered me over last night and will not let start, gotta check on that key probably went bad, oh well.

the gap between the fenders and wheels closes quite nicely when getting on it

ill post some vids of it later tonight from friday

I couldnt get rid of the 2k even if i tried; too much of an attachment to it and theres nothing like it.

Well, don't try to justify the Camaro as a 2nd car to alleviate tire and fuel. I don't buy it. A gas hungry V8 is going to wish it could get the impressive fuel mileage of an S2000.

I really don't understand the purpose of having a Z28 for a 2nd car if you are trying to save on fuel and tires, but maybe that's the line you used for yourself. If you were really concerned on those two points, a nice Civic LX would be the ticket.

hmmm itll save on tires for sure cause the s2k loves some tires for some reason, i get about 10k miles per rear set, and 16k miles with the stock s02??? dunno bout that

but i guess its more or less, 1 for the twisties 1 for the straights
