Default I love used car ads!

http://houston.craigslist.org/ctd/1756979900.html

Being that this is already one of the "fastest street cars in Houston" I am going to get it, put NOZ and a nitro on it and start counting the prize money from the 5th Gen Shootout!

FYI LMR you have some competition.

It is a sweet car, but out of my price range.

Good find. I've been wanting some cornering lamps in a car with "great relativity and drivability.". Einstien would be so proud.

My thoughts exactly. I was negotiating with Parkway Chevy in Katy over a 2010 Camaro and when they got stupid, I just thought screw this... for that kind of money I'm going shopping for a slightly used '08 ZO6.

No kiddin, after Taxes and the tint fee, you are looking at 45K+ I just can't see that kind of money for a camaro. A used ZO6 maybe.

In 2003, Parkway had a 2002 SS priced about 2K under a 02 black vette right next to it. I was like um something is not right here...

Yep. yep. There is way more than $45K invested (wasted) in my 2002 Z28, but I just can't see paying that kind of money up front for a Camaro when minty ZO6's are to be had for about the same price.

My '02 Z28 is just waiting for the day I come up on a Ferrari or some other high priced exotic on the open highway... and smoke that ***.

(Procharger FTW )

But... it's still a Camaro.

Unless you need the back seats, it doesn't make sense. If it was my ONLY car, a 5th gen would make sense, but for a toy, you can get a clean super low mile '08-09 for the cost of a new 2SS car
