The first 5 dealerships I called had no idea what I was talking about when I was inquiring on purchasing one. It wasn't until I decided to call the largest Corvette dealer in the STL area that actually knew what I as wanting and had been selling them successfully. They were able to source me a black one with the 6MT.
Added some better pics.
I was tempted to sell the WS6 to get an SS but couldn't do it. Just would miss it too much. When I saw the Caprice I figured next best thing and it allowed me to keep the WS6. I couldn't justify it when I have the truck, trailer, wife's Malibu and would have picked up a beater car as to not drive it in the winter. At least the 14 and up Caprice basically have the SS dash, it just doesn't have the floor [censored]. They moved it up to the dash to free up space for police equipment.
Changing the badges to the Holden stuff is the best thing you can do. I was glad I did it. I love your SS.
I don't blame you. I would have keep the WS6 as well. I always loved the look of the last gen of that car and wanted one really bad when they were available but couldn't make it work at the time. Still one of my favorite cars when it comes to looks. Just something about them that just oozes awesomeness
