    Dont know much bout the LS, but as far as i know they are not that reliable, just search the new for reviews, like edmunds or somin. My mom had one from the dealer when they were working on her car, it drove like shit!

    :jerkit:

    The ls is a very nice car. If you are going to buy one try to find a 03 or newer car. I use to work at Wixom Assembly (the plant that builds the ls) and can say that overall they are a very good car.

    well when it comes to the quality, and durabilty of its parts and interior it sucks compared to its competitors in its price range.

    well getting a car with a bigger engine like the LS wont help much. If thats what you need you need something like a camry, corolla, or hell an insight!

    Shit, if you get the LS get the V8 in the 5spd. That's what I've been thinking of doing.
