Default 2008 C6 SLP ZL465 Inquiry - Help

I'm interested in a 2008 Coupe with the LS3 engine and LT3 trim package. The car has 19,300 miles on her and is an absolute cream puff. I love the car but I'm concerned about this non GM upgrade and if I will have issues with it. There's not much out there on this package and that's what concerns me. I'd like to hear from you experts on this package and whether the car is worth the $26K asking price or should I just move on to another vehicle that is stock in the same model and year. I also wonder if the exhaust system is really loud. I'm not a fan of real loud cars.

On an LS3 it's an intake, exhaust, and tune, for a whopping 35 hp over stock. SLP has been making GM cars faster for 30 years, I wouldn't worry about it.

$26k seems like a reasonable price, not a steal.

It's definitely going to be louder than stock. Too loud is subjective.

Looks like a good deal to me based on the details. I looked up the package and its nothing but simple bolt on's. I would jump on it with only 19k miles.

I had an 05 SLP car a few years back. I really enjoyed that car. It was pretty quick too!

Trim package is 3LT, not LT3.
