The ws6 has been my dream car since I first saw the then new 98 trans am. I love the looks and curves of these cars. I would own one in every color if I could.
I started my search for my car knowing exactly what I wanted, a black on black ws6 with a 6-speed. After much searching and dissapointments I found my car, a 2000 ws6 in almost perfect condition. It had everything I was looking for. I bought it in April 2004 bone stock with 35,000 miles on it. I didn't even test drive it.
Today she's a weekend cruiser,a work in progress, and I am slowly doing upgrades to make her an all around great car. There's not too many mods in her now but when she's all done i'm hoping for a 400 rwhp range street car that can handle the strip. I am also hoping to dip into the 12's N/A here at my local track but being at an altitude of 5320 FT and DA's of 8,000 doesn't help.
I don't want to go too crazy with the WS6 cuz I have other projects planned (see 92 camaro). Anyways thanx for looking at my page. feel free to leave me a comment.

so it was about time something happened. the unofficial diagnosis is bent pushrods but we shall see. I'll be tearing into her when I get a chance but for now she is sitting tight in the garage, awaiting winter.

I LOVE it looking stock !!!

Lol too true, I started with a 1990 Camaro RS as my first real car lol and I started to mod that and then after I got my T/A all I wanted to do was mod her. haha.
I love Coheed and Cambria, Its a bad ass song, you should check them out, they're reall
Yeah always gotta have a to do list huh? lol It's hard not to mod a car that you know has awesome potential...
I like your ws6, she's pretty and you have some nice mods
Love the Ws6 What i want !!!
Very nice!!
Great car, that is all I can say.
Oh damn, you shoulda said hi!! I'll be back not this weekend but the next!!
Thanks!! I ran a 12.21@113. The converter is setup for nitrous so it's hurting the NA performance. Should be back out in a few weeks on the nitrous looking for around a 10.0.....maybe a 9.90!!! Were you parked next to me in the staging lanes once??
