Looks great Tony! Love the drop top lines.
Sold my G8 too soon I guess. Your Cyber Grey SS is going to be a fine addition to somebody's garage!

Her Audi was automatic too. I don't see the big Camaro as a sportscar, it honestly isn't that much fun to shift a tank. The 6-spd auto is much better than the 4L60e crap, they actually drive very nice. No complaints about my auto CTS-V either. But, for cars like the Corvette or Viper, I'd NEVER buy an automatic. Not even a 4th gen automatic, unless it was some silly stupid low price.
JUISSD, the Audi was traded in at Buckalew Chevy in Conroe, TX. Ask for Eddy Cotton, I'm sure he'd love to sell it. The car was immaculate, and had the 3M clear bra since the week we bought it. That is one reason the trade offer was so good.

Wow, I am surprised your wife did that. 2010 Audi S5 is a sweet *** car. Personally I think you down graded big time. That Camaro convertible is nice but a year from now, you will see many on the road.

Audi had 18K miles on it. Bring about $60K, because I bet they list it for that. The S5 is indeed a better car than the Camaro, but you also have to consider the huge difference in price ranges. Audi was $66K new, Camaro stickered for $43K. Even with a nice down payment, the Audi was still $1K/month. Fun factor is the same, the Camaro is quicker. Besides, I customize my cars, our Camaro won't look like the others on the road.
