it means 1 @!#$ty vehicle.. check the GTC post.. actually.. its just as base as you can get.


the car looks really good, I always wanted to do an 00-02 swap on my 04 but its an automatic so nahh. I liked it with just the carbon fiber hood b4 it was painted.. anyways keep up the good work.

fart can is hanging way too low, rear lip or maybe an 02 LS rear swap with the lip would be killer, like the paint idea on the CF hood. Painted handles, skirts, lip, and mirrors and it's gunna be beautiful. I do love those wheels though, SO glad you didn't sell the old POS with them on.

the muffler will be tucked once i get a new rear end, which my take awhile b/c i cant decide between 02 ls sport and 03+ ls sport. thanks for the comments guys, and yes everything will be painted this winter.

doesn't RK have a cool rear lip for the 03+ base model? I would consider that too if you wanted to go a little different, but if you want to match I think 02 LS rear lip either on your stock bumper(seen it, doesnt look terrible) or on an 02 bumper.

Those are some big upgrades. From the first pic you posted to the last couple is a huge difference. The new car looks a lot better.

Looks very hot! But I am partial to the amber corners, and yellow fogs and the painted hood...

1SV = special value package (cheaper than base model)

no tilt steering
no mirrors in visors
no ABS
no onstar
no premium sound option
no sunroof
no power windows
no power locks
no power mirrors
no automatic transmission option
no sedans (coupe only)

it DOES come with a/c though.
I've read they aren't supposed to come with CD players, but mine has one.. not sure if it was put in after the fact tho and I can't remember if my ex's 1SV was an am/fm only until we put a cd player in it

basically the 1SV is the lightest 3rd gen you can buy, they only come with 5 speeds, they never have any options (other than a/c) and they're all coupes. brand new they could be had for under $9k with tax and tags

they did however come with front sway bars (that became a standard feature in 2003 ALL jbodies came with some form of front sway bar.. ls sport bars were thicker I THINK but I could be wrong)
