Default 2003 z With Supercharger

What do you think about this 2003 350 I found? Seems a bit expensive due to the mods.

eh, not really into the modded look with a Brickyard, nor would I trust how someone else installed and ran that SC engine.

But 45K is not really a lot of miles for an 03, kbb.com says the average should be 59k for an 03 by now assuming average daily driving, I bought mine with 25k and now have 45k without one major problem.

Get one without the sc and have it done where you know it will be done right. Need the peace of mind.

Before you write it off completely, get additional info. Who installed it, was it tuned properly. Theres a chance a very repuitable shop installed it, then again maybe not. Talk to the tuner shop themselves. Then if your not comfortable, pass. BTW +1 on ugly wheels.
