They are awsome. With the addition of a good exhaust, chip and intake, plus some good Bilstein shocks you could give the newer ones a run for their money!

1999 and 2000 Lightnings are selling at reasonable rates these days. Most are falling in the $25K to $29K range, depending on mileage and condition. The HP difference is due to the 90mm induction upgrade on the '01 and '02 models. The newer models also came with 373 gears, a 5.5 inch aluminum driveshaft, clear tail light lenses, and Bilstein shocks.

On a personal note, I prefer the rims on the '01 and '02 models over the ones on the '99s and '00s.

RUNVS?
