I have a 2000 silver Z28 with 119,000 miles and I finally need a new rear end…Yes I beat on it…Sac the works…Basically stock Headers, filter, lowered, maf, CAT Back-skie:) I have never done anything but mods to the car, barely even change the oil and runs like a gem. I guess I got one of the good ones. So if anyone knows an End for sale please let me know.

Yes, it is better to buy a car with low miles. But every car (if it makes it) will eventually have 100,000 miles on it. And as for you saying that they have problems, well your wrong!! These are very good cars!!

i know they are good cars, thats why i am in this forum! when i say problems, I mean replacing things.... but i guess thats just normal, taking into consideration that most of the people in this forum have gone WOT most of their life.

My 99 T/A has 114,000 miles and the only thing done to it other than regular maintainance is a new knock sensor. I replaced both of them and added an LS6 intake to it.
