Still would want a 5 speed over the L98, but man is this car sharp! Wish there were some more pictures.

Nice car...

I think having a car in Km would always bother me a little, but if it was the right car I’d get over it...

Performance rear end... 3.27 axle

some of the other cars had more fuel efficient options but were not as quick.

In the 305 cars G92 was a 3.45 rear and a better Cam.

So cool. I love that color. I think the km speedo would drive me nuts though.

G92 is the RPO code that shows the car has the Performance Ratio, but not the actual numerical value of that ratio. Then GU6, for example, is the RPO code that provides the numerical value.

Three RPO codes(for Camaros and early Firebirds):
G80 Limited-Slip Axle
G92 Performance Axle Ratio
GU6 3:42 (the performance ratio available to that specific car)

A grey interior that isn't faded. Actually looks nice. That is my favorite color on these cars next to white.

I've got one for sale like this but aged a little bit more HAHA. Mine's probably slightly better optioned as well.
