[QUOTE="SHOtime, post: 671218, member: 541919"] Stay far away from the third gen SHOs. Most have never had the cam issue taken care of. The sprocket walks and crunch! Your 3.4 V8 is now toast, and you have a $15K replacement cost for the engine. If your girl can find one, a 1994-95 SHO auto would be the way to go. If she can handle driving a stick, then 1989-1995 had those. Watch out, though. The SHOs can cost an arm and a leg to keep in good condition if the proper maintenance wasn't done over the years.
