Hey guys, I'm going to be picking up a 98 next week. I got a real cream puff. Red with crome 2000 wheels with only 16,000 miles on it. Can't wait to pick it up next Saturday. Happy fathers day to me.

Pics

Thanks for the welcome guys. I never thought I own a Vette, well it's not quite mine yet, but soon. Is it next Saturday yet.

So what's the best Cat-back for this? It has one on it now but I don't care for the duals. I like the 4 outlets a lot better than just the 2.
