What would you do?
here goes, I currently have a 2004 MC LS. I picked it up about 4 months ago for 4k. It was in excellent condition and only had a shade under 47k miles on it. An SS just showed up on CL for a really great price. Its an 02 but it has 133k miles on it. I really want an SS but all the ones I've seen in my price range have mileage that high or higher. I'm open to suggestion.

Don't do it....you know your car, and you know it's issues and lack of issues....the ss has a lot of miles and may need an engine/tranmission soon...all high priced items, not including what else maybe wrong with the car...If you want more power, I say save up more money and buy either a newer one, or one with less miles and less wear and tear...
JMO good luck and let us know what you decide

Wouldn't doing a top swap be cheaper?
If it because of the appearance, all of that stuff can be changed on your LS.
Spoiler, fog lights, rockers. etc..
*edit*
Forgot to ask, what's the reason behind wanting an SS?
47K miles is great for an 04 trust me. I wish mine that that many, so far mines up to 115,xxx
and to have paid 4k sounds even better to me.
Look and ask around, there are plenty of info/people here that can help guide you in the right directions if its performance the reason you want an SS.

I want an SS mainly for the performance but I also love how they look. But I traded my police package impala for the LS so I knew what I was giving up in performance from the beginning. I think I probably will just keep it. Thanks guys for your replies.
