Sounds like you already made up your mind then.

Cully77

No, I made up my mind that I want a Camaro or ditch the idea and keep the Monte. I do appreciate the input, helps me to talk it out.

Amen, feelings are mutual

the new camaro is a little heavier than what was expected but none the less are good cars. I dont care too much for the look of them but they perform well and they turn heads even though they are a dime a dozen.

....and I got dibs on the hood!

If you are getting a crappy appraisal on your MC, you might want to think about this. I could swap my hood + cash, you could swap rims + cash with Shocker, and the dealer would probably not give you any less for trade in.

BTW, my Monte is the same color as yours.

Why not a G8? a lot of ex LS4ers bought one...not too many people have them as well.

agreed, there are about 4 G8GT's in my city of 40,000 people. There are a ton of new camaro's. Hell why not as G8 GXP since you seem to have the cash (assuming since you said they would be paid in full)

I say get rid of the monte and get the camaro. I sold my GXP and miss it because of how unique it was but Im starting to fall in love with my new charger. Im not a fan of the new camaro I would rather get the mustang (I just got smoked by the 5.0) but if you like it get it its better then the monte.

SSCoop

How is that Charger treating you? But to the OP do what you feel is best for you. If you want the Camaro get it.

Cully77

Redrocket I'd definitely consider that if I pull the trigger. Where are you located? And a g8 gxp would be nice but I did a search and there are very few available, and some of those had more miles than id want. While the gxp might be the better performing car, am I honestly going to have any less fun driving the camaro? Doubt it. Camaro just has that sports car look and feel that would be a blast to experience. I can buy a sports sedan when I have kids lol.

Anyway, thanks... I hope to make my decision soon so I don't waste away the summer.

Errr....the Camaro is a pony/muscle car, not a sports car. It dont even look like one either.

my thoughts exactly!!! I guess I dont understand why there are all of these single, w/ no kids guys driving GXP's and ISS's. If I didnt have a daughter and GF hell I'd be in a vette!!

Room for friends, the look on peoples' faces when they get skulldrug by a sedan, "fo dos equal mo hos/four doors equal more ******," etc.

Four door cars or also known as sedan's, have more adequate space for multiple promiscuous women.

Cully77

Whatever, I'm not going to claim any car I drive is or has to be the fastest, best performing car out there. And, I can make more of an argument for it than the Monte Carlo "Luxury Sport Coupe".... But the camaro checks off all the boxes I want it to: quick, manual, v8, sounds good, looks good (subjective yes).

I'm not going to be track driving it so I might as well have a Pony car.

I'm sure most vette owners have another car they could drive in the winter. And I know it's not the most comfortable, but at least I can fit a passenger in the back of the Camaro if need be.

Cully77

Getting closer to pulling the trigger. Dealer is trying to locate the car I want.

PM me if you're interested in wheels, hood, or headlights.

It's going to have to be local because I'll need your stock parts. So please make your offer part + cash.

Here's what I have into each for your reference:
Hood - 1550+
Lights - 185
Wheels - 450

I jumped ship and dont regret it, I dont think you will either. I'd love to own a new camaro, pig or not!
