Default Possible new car

Well my car is still in the shop getting my transmission done. I haven't heard anything from my mechanic yet, so today I'll more than likely get the skinny. I have a warranty by AAA so that's a plus. As I've stated before, if I had another transmission issue with the car I will be getting rid of it. I have came across two cars (I'll get my flame suit ready -_-) a 2006 Charger R/T fully loaded for 14k with 60k miles on it and a 2005 GTO 6.0 with 33k miles on it. I don't know what the price was on the GTO but the salesman will let me know today what it is. I test drove the charger and it rides nice and it is very clean. I won't do any heavy mods on it if I do go with the charger besides exhaust. Just wanted to give you guys an update.

Salesman just told me that the GTO is priced at 18,900. way too much for me considering i still owe 11k on my Impala. it all comes down to what they are going to give me as a trade in value (probably nothing since ive seen these cars get jerked out of their value)

Agree with everyone above on the GTO. If you buy the Charger, you'll be bent the first time an LS4 whips your *** in a race!
