My daughter bought a new BMW 325 coupe years ago. Ate up tires every 5,000 miles driving it like the adult she was. Never again.

My buddy has something 05ish M5. Centri blower and is pushing almost as much HP as I am. Thing has almost 200k miles on it now and never been rebuilt. Been thru 4 transmissions until the lastest upgrade to a t56. Car is a beast, 4 door, about the same weight as our gen 5s. We are trying to get together for some racing. His parts are way more than mine for sure. I think he spent $8k on the exhaust alone... compared to my $2k

Third compared to my 2011 Camaro its like going into the future 25 yrs not 4. Its much faster, sounds better, handles better, quicker off the line, more customizable to how you want it to ride, and it feels like a luxury car on the inside. Much of the comments really come across as jealous. Don't be such haters.

But no sweat on my back! And yes my wife likes it much more, that's not a bad thing.

My main reason for switching was to have something a little different to change it up a bit. This does that completely. My Camaro was great and I enjoyed it but this is a totally different experience.

Good luck everyone, stay safe!
Do you think if someone has in the garage this...



So will we envy you this...?



Really not bro




But otherwise I wish you many happy miles and a trouble-free ride

Why let it go? Just add more cars.

If you see my car available on here it is because I am dead and the successor trustee is selling it.

Oh it's staying in the family. Getting handed down to my son. Still, thinking I'll just not say anything and maybe no one will notice lol.
