Thanks again for all your help.

We are all different - but I found it very useful trying to make a "options"list for the ideal car... then did research here and on the www - revised the list including the questions pr. item... searched again and the called a few dealers.

Funny enough I ended almost were I began - but have been a bit around.

It has been a long long trip - and at some time you "pull the trigger"... and then you can "upgrade" later

But to give you my biggest questions:

SPF or BDR: BDR - like the Butt better - and I'm 6"2
Engine: LS7 (I'm in Europe) or Roush/Keith Craft: Ended with Roush 427 sr/tw - upgrading with Dynatek 8 stack polished EFI ($ 9' - but like the look and the much better running - and self tuning engine)
Engine size: 427 or BB : 427 (do NOT go below 427 - think of the badge and resale value)
Version: r or sr/tw: sr/tw you can drive down town without problems
LSD: yes
PS: no (same reason + keep it simple/light)
Brakes: upgrade for the look - and extra security feeling
T600 or T56: T56 with Steeda Tri-ax shifter

...but that's was my wish list with my questions.
