Hey, you got your car and she got hers. Gotta have peace in the house. I gave up a few of my "toys" so the wife could have what she wanted to drive. Be happy you kept your "toy".

No flames dude, you spend your money the way you want. The important thing is when you and your wife get in your cars you enjoy driving them and if getting the SHO is what did it for her, all the better. Good luck with the new car but if I read you're trading the SS in on a Stang I'll UPS you a flame retardant suit because you'll be in real trouble...

given a choice between v-6 camaro and SHO. id go with SHO as well.

obviously there is a 10k price difference thought.

i loved the SHO when i drove it. i wish i had the money.

can you post some pics? id love to see what color you got.

and thats the first camaro trade in ive heard of. i bet there are less than 50 used camaros on the lot nation wide.

I'd rather have an SS and a SHO than two Camaro's. It just seems redundant.

Your wife made a good choice.

Thanks we picked it up on sat. and took it to hershey park that night. It is a great car . Wife loves it and didn't even drive it yet. Except for the test drive.
One good thing about trading a camaro is we got a good deal. I would post pic's but I doubt anybody would care on here.

I would like to get the same tune that made it run in the 12's as posted on here.
But, I don't think its for sale yet. It really doesn't matter though that's what my ss if for. It's completely loaded and really as long as my wife is fine with it as so am I. I would like to take some pics and post, but I really don't want to get flamed. It's really just a family car when it comes down to it.
