D's Hawk

There is a 2ss/rs for sale at the dealer up the street from me. I got pre-approved at my bank already. The camaro only has 3400 miles and is GM certified on top of the 10yr/100,000 mile warranty. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my car now, I just turned over 80,000 and could still get good money for it. What do y'all think?

In my opinion, I would def. keep the 'Hawk, but I'm a little biased lol. I see the new Camaros all the time out by me, but never a Firehawk, and to me the Camaros just look big and clunky next to my T/A. I like the low, sleek look of the T/As and 'Hawks. Also, the warranty is nice, but for the amount of cash you'd be putting up for the Camaro, I'm sure you'd spend a lot less to maintain/modify the Firehawk, whereas if you modified the Camaro any more than basic bolt-ons, you'd most likely void the warranty lol. Once again, this is just my opinion- the new Camaros are nice vehicles to DD or modify, don't get me wrong for a second- but my personal preference lies with the 4th gens lol.

I would keep the hawk, but then dealers are giving really good trade in value right now with the used market the way it is. I would pick one up if your getting a good price on it regardless of if your trading in or not.

Keep the Hawk. It's unique, desirable, and increasingly rare. The 5th gens are everywhere. Search the site on this topic and you'll see a couple guys who have regrets after they went to the 5th gen.

I also forgot to mention I have a set of kooks headers and catted ypipe in the box still in my garage for my t/a. Just waiting to get a little more money for plugs, wires, and motor mounts. That should wake it up a little bit. Maybe help me get out of this "I need a new car" thing.

keep the hawk please , spend some money on it and it will bring the spark back . Maybe take out a small loan , do heads cam and some rims and suspension and it will be a brand new car the way it drives.

How much are they asking for camaro if don't mind? if want newer fast car used c6 z06 can be bought for under 40k now checkout autotrader.

They are asking 33995 for it. I can only dream of getting a c6 z06, but can't afford one. The only way I can justify this camaro is because I am putting 7 to 8 thousand down.

yeah man it's not worth the car payments right now, i'd put 7-8k on maintaining your hawk or minor upgrades and pocketing the rest

Your car is paid off (im assuming), jus hold onto it for now untill a nice z06 comes around or a zl1 like i said earlier.

Two questions:
1. what is your current car payment...?
2. what will be your new car payment...?

If you want it, get it. Simple as that. For those that are saying to keep it because you see hawks less often don't have there head in the game.

Cars aren't about turning heads, they're about having fun. If you think you're going to have more fun/enjoy yourself more in the new camaro, get it. It doesn't matter if it comes with a car payment, or increased insurance rates, or anything else doom related. What matters is, does it fill that void we all feel when we don't have that "thing" to make us happy.

I say go for it if its the next big thing for you
