Hm...question.

Would it be worth it to sell my 1997 and get like...a 93 z28?

Cause i figure i can sell my car for a little over 4 grand, and im sure i can find a 93 Z for around that much...considering ive found several 95 Z's for 5 grand.

Comments?

maf- mass air flow sensor.

I wouldn't recommend getting a 93 Z28, they kind of have their own set sof parts just for them cause their so different from the rest of the 4th gens. IMO just save up and keep on moding the 97.

I would recommend a 94 or 95 Z to buy if you are lookin to do a lot of performance stuff. They have a little less emissions BS to get around and are a little cheaper as well.

I picked up mine for 5500 but I was very particular in what I wanted. I saw several Z's go on ebay for around 3 grand or so- they would make a good platform to start with.

i dont know i've been considering this for a long time. if your parents dont care how much insurance is. GET A Z!!!!! thats the only thing stopping me right now. my dad will only pay my insurance if i have a v6. so i'm screwed till i can afford that. but you, i say go for it. and a 97 can get about 6 or 7 thousand...my friend payed 12000 for his 97 that he crashed...yes, he overpaid, but it shows you can get a lot more than 4 grand.
