Thinking of picking up a 1LE car for some roadracing. Anyone have any direct experience with both 3rd and 4th Gen cars? How do they compare? Which is the better car for a novice? Which is lighter, faster, easier to drive? I suppose a Player's Car will always keep its value for 3rd Gens, but the genuine 1LE 89-92 cars rarely come up for sale.
Thoughts? This post has been edited by Russ: Nov 3 2010, 05:48 AM |

theres no reason to buy a 1LE for anything other then collecting. youll be paying alot of money for things youre going to change anyway. theres nothing an 8K 1LE can do that a $1500 3rd gen with 1K in parts and work cant.

That's a bargain compared to $33,000! (Heck, $14.5K is a bargain in comparison, too.) Best of both worlds: 3rd gen with an LS1.
