Auction Won! 2012 w/100k miles

Post by WesCramer »

Hey guys, I just found this group and what awesome timing. Went to my local county auction in Georgia on Saturday and drove home in a 2012 Caprice 100k miles for 5 grand. I've been interested in them when I first heard about them back in 2011. Finally got one! I wanted a sports car and the wife wanted a family car, I figure a pretty good compromise!

I was creeping around on here last night getting info and research before joining.

We are planning to the civilian interior stuff. G8 center console, G8 front and back seat swap for the rear arm rest/trunk access. (maybe front G8 door panels if they fit)
Pull the push bar and LED spot light off and wrap it all black (for us cheaper than painting it) and when ever the brand new tires wear down then getting some wheels and tires.

Vengeance Racing is actually our local LS performance shop, having them clean up the tune and reprogram some other stuff is a must!

Good find there, you can do pretty good at some local auctions if they're not well publicized. Nice looking car at a good price.

Take care, and welcome!
