A bit before I traded. I got rid of a loaded 2010 Tahoe. It was the nicest truck I've ever owned and was a dream to drive. However, the SS is in a leave of it's own

it was odd leaving my 07 MONTE SS behind. that car was fun as hell, had a nice 5.3L V8,
and (believe it or not) turned heads and got remarks! but...

look what i got INTO.
plus, the monte was in such good shape / low miles, they sold her certified preowned and she didnt last on the lot even 2 weeks!!!

Mines only a focus, but I'm still a little attached to it. The payments I would be getting on The camaro are fine. I just plan on getting rid of My current car far away so I don't have to see it again

I had a 2007 Audi that I loved, but it was seriously having mechanical issues... Don't really miss it and love the Camaro...

Nope not one ounce. Just had to find the right place to take my 99 TA for the right price. Even though I promised myself no car payment for another few years.

It was a little sad to see my 03 Infiniti g35 coupe go. I bought it right off the truck and babied it for 6 1/2 years. The sadness didn't last long - my LS3 SS took care of that for sure!

I also loved my 04 Inifiniti g35 coupe. It was starting to show its age. I really did love that car though.

the car I traded was a 03 grand am, trading it was tough because when I purchased it I didn't know if I could pay for it at the time. I went through a couple tough years after my job was elimated and I was out of work for over a year. I finally found a job in the banking industry and had to drive 45 minutes to work and the car I drove at the time was a 89 Cutless that was not in the greatest of shape that my parents had as a spare car. I had lost everything before I landed the job, all my savings, what property I had, my new Nissan Altima all gone. I needed a dependable car and somehow I was able to get the financing and I bought a 2003 Grand am. I paid that car off but it meant more than just transportation. It was one thread to normacy that I clung to for a couple years, it was one of the few things I could depend on. So trading it in was hard. Luckily I now work about a block from work so I can pamper my Camaro. Life goes on but I will never forget that GA

06 2.2L Cobalt LT. Don't miss it at all the 2 and a half months it's been gone! It started getting lots of weird noises so I figured trade it in while it's still semi decent, plus my camaro was on sale in the saturday paper for way below sticker so I said yoink!

I have 04 Monte Carlo SS that belongs to my wife, she refuses to get rid of it, it is Signature Series and I STILL get looks and stares and comments on it everywhere I go.
I also have an 02 Avalanche that has been an awesome ride but if I have to I WILL trade it in on a new SS/RS Camaro I can always buy a good beater truck anywhere so that I will still have something to haul stuff and possibly pull a boat.
