Turn your key on - but do not start the car. Look at all of the warning lights on the dash. If you have ABS - there should be an ABS light on.

I have a 99 Camaro V6, i wannna put a good exhaust system for under $300, any suggestions?

I know one easy way, but be careful where you do this. Drive real fast, and then slam on the brakes. If they lock up, and you slide, you don't have antilock brakes. If you can feel the brakes pump as you stop, then you do. Look at the skid marks when your done. If there one solid line, then you have old school brakes. If there broken up in to little patches, then you do.

Take a tire off. If you see a ring of notches or small gears surrounding the wheel hub behind the front or rear brake rotors you have anti-lock brakes. You must take these steps to be sure. If you have ramps or a floor jack you can raise the vehicle and look at the back side of the rotors. and you see this ring of teeth also. Use Jack stands If you plan to do go beneath your car.
