    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I wonder if mine would pass emissions. The two stock catalytic converters and muffler suffered catastrophic failure on the grapevine pass coming out of the Los Angeles basin while I was towing. So I replaced that with a magnaflow catalytic converter from a 94 Supra turbo and magnaflow muffler. Technically it should be a better cat than it had originally but I don't know how emission stuff works where you live we don't have any of it in Washington

    In Pennsylvania it would, because OBD1 vehicles are generally only a visual inspection due to most mechanics not having an OBD1; I know a guy who got a JDM 1993 Mitsubishi Delica through PA emissions since all of emissions equipment was intact, even though that Delica never had an OBD system. In California, your Cruise most certainly would not pass emissions...

    Which is funny because mine is a California model that had the extra big cats originally and the EGR temperature sensor. Not a California model anymore

    Yes. You can find a 2009-2013 ZR1 Corvette. You might not make it, so COD.

    I have these saved on my autotrader account.

    ZR1

    Z06

    Now I really like this one. Not sure it would be a good purchase for this guy since this is a collector and I'm a driver.

    https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for...tBy=relevance&numRecords=25&clickType=listing

    This one is exactly a drivers car. Heads fixed, built, 630HP to the wheels....about perfect. One of my buddies had a 730 HP supercharged C6 and it was just scary. All motor...every time.

    https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for...tBy=relevance&numRecords=25&clickType=listing

    This is the same color as my last C6 and same problem is this is a collector...but a real weapon on the track.

    You know on second thought, you pick up the $70k car. You scratch it first. Then I’ll come visit and take it for a spin :laugh:

    Didn't have a price on it and has been sitting in the same spot for at least a year. It's a stick shift too!
