Re: 2014+ or 2013- ? Which year do you prefer?

I just found the files section on this site and what a gold mine of information. I hear you on the cost of the backup cam but I am looking at a few cars on the market with prices ranging from $ 11k to near $15k (for 13 and 14 year models, the few 15s I have seen are $16 to $17k) so the small add on ...

Re: 2014+ or 2013- ? Which year do you prefer?

Thank you for your much needed reply. I will take a close look at both the 13 and a 14 within the next few days. I too want a backup cam but I gather this can be added with a mod from Chris White. I think I will call him to confirm that. I don’t mind the diy add ons, but a complete DOD delete is som...

2014+ or 2013- ? Which year do you prefer?

There are many discussions about the different features of these 2 ‘generations’ if you can call it that but my question is, all things being near equal other than the year, which year do you prefer if buying now? 13 or less vs 14+. I know some prefer a floor console shift but I have not heard any t...

Re: Caprice video (ideas/comments please)

I think I know the answer to my earlier confusion. I just saw another YT video of the Austrailian version. So obviously the cars were exported throughout the world as civilian cars except the US. Sorry for my confusion but it is an eye opener for me. Again, I would love to hear your comments and cor...

Caprice video (ideas/comments please)

I ran across this Caprice review on YouTube that appears to be from Saudi Arabia or somewhere near their. This Caprice also appears to be 100% civilian. Maybe that will not be of a surprise to some of you but my understanding was a 2011 Caprice was never made as a civilian car? I left a comment ques...

Re: New member from Georgia

Thanks for the comments and education. I can see there is much to learn like any vehicle. I don’t think I would buy a PPV without this site. This forum makes all the difference. The next few years will be interesting as more PPVs become available to us civilians, I.e. 2015s etc. I can see this forum...

New member from Georgia

Hello everyone. I am currently a CVPI owner and am looking to make the jump to a PPV. I am scheduled to look at a 2012 next week and might buy it. It is a 9C1 and looks to be bare bones, straight from the government. Carfax lists 4 accidents, 2 or 3 are documented as superficial damage, one is not d...
