I am staying right where I am at. the car is paid off and now I can spend more money on it compared to making a payment. oh and my car will be a lot faster when all said and done.

First of all: Wrong Forum.
Next: There is not going to be another Firebird or GTO.
Next: The Camaro is a 2010 model not 2009.

I really do not like the 2010 Camaro.
I think I would get a G8 GXP if I wanted to leave it stock (which is against my religion). I would rather get a G8 and put an APS twin turbo kit on it.

But for now I will hang onto my 1999 Formula.

I'll be staying with my current Z28. I don't want to make a new car payment. Plus my wife will grab my shotgun and make sure I have a "gun cleaning accident" if I get rid of the car after buying thousands of dollars worth of parts.

Don't believe everything you find on the internet. There are tons of photoshopped pics & peoples renderings, but there will NOT be a new bird of any type comming out. GM executives have already confirmed this. Not to mention there are already several threads on this topic already.

I'm stayin right where I am. Car will be paid off, the LSx scene is huge right now & plenty of parts to replace anything on these cars from top to bottm & front to back.

To me mileage is just another number. I will replace any part that needs to be replaced when the time comes & enjoy not having a car payment along with a fully modded car.

I am keeping my GTO, yes you can easily fit a Baby seat back there as well as a booster seat for you 4+yr olds. I am not to conserned about mileage either as with all the performance work I have done on the car I will need to put in a new motor anyways as well as all new driveline. Yeah the body may end up with high mileage but nothing else on the car will.

This is exactly the conclusion i have come to. I checked out the only G8 within 40 miles of here, and yes it is badass, but not worth it imho. I wont have my car paid off for awhile seeing how i just bought it. But with only 38k miles, i have along way to go. Ill end up keeping this til i have spent so much on it im in debt.
