1st time GM buyer and they're off to a great start in terms of keeping me as a customer.

It's strange how that works sometimes.

I can remember going to a dealership (or 4) to find an allocation for my '13 Shelby and most of them were either uninterested in listening to what I had to say, or weren't interested in getting themselves an allocation in order to sell to me while doing basically NO work period.

Most Ford dealers aound where I LIVE wont even let you sit in a 5.0 unless you have something to trade in or they run a credit check first lol...

If Ford hadn't uglied-up the new Mustang, I might have had one. Hunter Green. Like Frank Bullit's. I really like the previous-gen Mustang's looks.

I asked myself at the Ford dealer in 2012, "Would Steve McQueen own that car?" and of course, he wouldn't.

BMW M3 or a Z06. I was pulling wrenches at a GM store at the time and needed a back seat so Camaro it was.

Might be a Vete in the future.

Either the WRX STi or Evolution GSR... instead I fell in love with the 45th Anniversary edition.

i always been a GM person, and the camaro was always a consideration coming off a 98 Firebird. my only delima was color and coupe or vert. i liked black and wanst sure about maintaince, and was curious about verts, but had concerns for a while. but i ended up with a new 2 LT black vert, as dealer had it and was able to get rebate and discounts and after looking around, still liked the look of the black vert. had it a month now. its fun but getting too cold now to drop the top.

A Pontiac G8 GT... Red with red leather seats. Sharp looking car that I wish was still being produced

AGM 1LE · 11-12-2013, 08:27 AM

WS6 or C5Z or first gen Viper. Really liked the 1LE package and the 14 redesign so I decided to order one and it is awesome!
