    Excellent. I really really want one of those, after driving them occasionally at the Caddy dealer (my summer job during college). I could never shift smoothly in them, but otherwise they had a ton of power, rode well, and sounded like sex. Very comfortable seats, too, with the alcantara.

    Nice score! Where in Georgia did you find it. Been looking for one on and off and not finding anything local. A friend just bought one last week and now yours, both in Georgia.

    If you try the creative-steel diff bushing an block do a review for us please.

    I found mine in South Atlanta. There are some listed for sale all across GA (some in SC as well).There were a few Redline/Infrared cars here in SC going for $15-17K, but I was looking for Raven specifically. There's a Raven in VA for $16.5 with ~80K and a list of warranty repairs done, but those guys never called me back LOL!!

    I plan on doing the diff and trans mount as the engine mounts have been replaced by the dealer I got the car from. I will review once I get em done.

    I see that the 2004-2005 cars came with the LS6 while the 2006-2007 cars came with the LS2. Is one much more attractive than the other?

    According to which owner you talk too, this what you will get

    04-05

    • Z06 engine 400hp @ 6000/395tq @ 4800
    • Lumpy idle
    • More top end pull

    06-07

    • Broader tq curve (bigger cubes) 400hp @ 6000/395tq @ 4400
    • GenIII and GenIV differential
    • Better axles (I think)
    • Steering wheel radio controls

    Tongue in cheek . . .

    Best advice . . . buy the best example you can afford. I approached it with this in mind. However, I knew would have to do mounts from Creative Steel as they are known to work better than all other OEM and aftermarket solutions.

    You should call this car the Timebomb.

    Nice car. My sister has one and she really likes it. My wife hates my sister. We won't be getting one.

    Now that you got a awesome car, do you want to sell the E36 318?

    Nice ride! If I had found a decent used CTS-V, I probably would have bought one of those instead of my Mustang.

    In reply to DukeOfUndersteer:

    You are the 10th person that has asked me if I wanted to sell the 318. For the last few weeks, Mrs. Zero has been getting notes and request to sell the "LadyBug".

    Since it's her DD and gets 25mpg combined, she said "Hell to da nizzzzah . . . "
