Camaro is gone...

Well...I wasn't really planning on getting rid of my 2011 SS..but I had a deal come up that I couldn't refuse.

Now I am the proud owner of a 2008 ls3 vette.

I love it! The lack of room sucks but the this thing is amazing and what I probrably should have bought in the first place. It's faster stock than my full exhaust, and tuned camaro was. I'll still prolly visit here from time to time just to see how some of you guys cars are turning out.

It's a pretty car. Unfortunately will need to take your Camaro card...


But you can replace it with a Corvette card. Honestly when I bought my car I had driven two hours specifically to buy this car, barring some major problem with it once I saw it. And when I got there, there was a Grand Sport right in front of my truck, black, brand new, and shiny. It was tempting.

At least a treasonable offense of turning to the blue oval dark side wasn't committed.

I love vette's. Congrats. I'm starting to lean toward a stingray in place of my ZL1. I just not sure if I'm ready to give up the back seat which means someone is staying home or going to need to follow in another ride.

I have three little ones and my Camaro is out 9 times out of ten because a cruise night or show takes a support vehicle for the family to go along. I'm a diehard and will stick with the Camaro because I love them too much and know as the family ages the problem goes away, but if the Camaro keeps you out of this predicament, keep it! It sucks sometimes never getting to do any of the fun stuff with the car. Nobody wants to sit home. We actually brought the minivan behind to C5 Fest IV because I couldn't bear to attend without the car.

OP - nice car. Congrats!

Thanks guys! I love it..It's usually only me and my gf..no worry for kids yet. By the time I have kids I will probrably have traded this off by then. I never thought I would own a vette. After my first car (a $800) 88 Camaro. I have been buying and flipping cars since. Making a little here and there. Nowhere else to go up from here except to a zl1, z06, or zr1..but thats gonna be awhile.

It is nice to be able to fit a bucket of kfc chicken threw the window.
