Sugar and water in your gas.... talkin the big bucks to fix your engine. no thanks. steal my wheels and key my car, but stay the hell out of my gas tank.
perfect example: when i was in highschool, all the seniors cars in the lot had tires slashed and sugar put in tanks, thanks for my locking gas cap, i just get a lovely key treatment. I spent 2k replacing my racing tires and painting, but much better than losing my big block (or facing expensive repairs).
Im just saying, this is the big 2000's, we shouldnt even be using gas anymore, but since we are, LOCK IT UP. We spent a lot of money on our car. we want it LOCKED. everywhere. my damn 02 mazda 6 locked. lets go chevy.
Didn't they put all kinds of stuff (sugar, water, ammonia, etc) in a car on Mythbusters a few years ago and it didn't hurt the car one bit?

Yep that was me in the drivers seat in Fred's video... Here's another video of the SS rumble...it was sweet. I have over 100 pics that my buddy and I took so if anyone is looking for anything in particular PM me and let me know and I'll see if I can find it.

The best part was that after awhile everyone pretty much just walked away and we were there to pick through the car and see whatever we wanted. I was impressed with the interior- not cheap and feels very solid. That was my biggest concern seeing as how I've seen the car a few times now but was never able to get in it. We looked it over inside and out and didn't find one thing we weren't pleased with. It only took like an hour to calm down after we left lol...

Here's another vid of me starting the car....

Man, I shoulda made the drive. Sooo jealous. Can you post some more pics of the trunk, back seat, and anything up close of the cloth? Also, how did the cloth feel as compared to other GM cloth?

The cloth was nice...I almost wish I got it....although not in that color- I think it will show a lot of dirt...here's a few pics of the seats/trunk and the seat folded down.

Why does it show in thread 133, that the tires on the car are P275/40R20 and your picture shows that the size of the snow tire are P255/55R18, so which is the correct size that is on the camaro Heather is driving?

Thanks! I think I'll stick with the 1SS. In that last pic, is that grey thing above the aux plug where the USB is in the 2SS? If so, it looks like it would be relatively easy to add that myself. I wonder if that would be locked out in the PCM or deck on the 1SS. If they don't do anything crazy to prevent it, that could be done for $20 easy.

Next question, how did the stereo sound if you heard it? Pump any jams?

P245/45R20 front and P275/40R20 rear for the LT/RS and SS cars.

P245/55R18 for the 18s (1LS, 1LT) and P245/50R19 on the 19s (2LT, option on 1LT)

Heather also stated that these snow tires are not stock and not offered by Chevy as an option. They were put on the car since she had to run through some serious snow on her way out of the great white north.
