May be trading. Z28 for WS6. Opinions wanted. Hey guys. Well like the title says i may be trading my car, in for a WS6. Anyhow here are the specs on the cars.
2001 Mystic Teal Metallic Z28 Camaro
T-Tops
A4
Black Leather
Steering mounted controls
Electronic seat
41.3k miles
Flawless condition. No CD Player.
New Tires
Warranty
2001 Red WS6 Trans Am
T-Tops
A4
Beige/Black leather
Steering mounted controls
CD
Electronic Seat
New Tires
Warranty
Pretty much just a basic breakdown of them. I have the Z28. The red WS6 with that interior is my dream car besides an SOM WS6. Thats why i want to trade. Not to mention i have a high interest rate on my car compared to what i would have with this one. Mainly because i had no credit to begin with and my mom co signed. Well i guess 9% isn't bad. So either trade or refinance my car is my situation haha.
Anyway i talked to the dealership today and they want my car on a trade in and are even willing to come down on their price of the WS6. Which is 15,000. I said i want to come out better than what i owe now. I owe 17.6k with the interest on mine. He is calling for a pay off for my car on monday. My question is if everything turns out right in my favor, should i sacrifice the 10k miles for my dream car?
It will be daily driven, like mine is, and on the brightside i can delay my first payment a couple months, haha. Also i forgot to mention my friend has looked the car up and down and has told me it is in FLAWLESS, FLAWLESS condition IN and OUT. What do ya guys think?

crucial information....how many miles on the T/A?
You said sacrifice the 10k miles so the T/A is at 51,300ish miles?
Remember T/A's did retail for slightly more than their z28 equivilent back in the day....its because of our snazzy seats

^Yeah the T/A has 52k. The dealership already told me they will come down on the price for whatever works best to get me better than equal. Mine books 2 grand less than the T/A does right now in everything. With 10k less miles. Haha.

given that info i say if it puts you in a better financial situation do it, but dont do it if it at ALL puts you in a worse position....its the same car with more miles after all....
The t/a does look MUCH better than the catfish tho.....never liked 98-02 camaros....

After talking to the dealership im going to stay right where i am at. On another note, yes you did read that, i had no credit to begin with when i purchased this car so the interest rate was a little high, even with a co signer. Interest + dealer fee's + no credit = large sum of money. Its ok though, i am glad i bought her! I have no regrets.
