Tonight I have officially sold the Camaro. Wednesday the car went back to 99% stock and now the check does in the bank tomorrow. It was my first new car. I per ordered the car and got it back in April 2009. It was a pretty cool experience to own one of the first. Over time it became apparent that the car just couldn't hold up to what I wanted to do with out major (expensive) drive train mods. I will still argue that they are decently fast and I still hate the new 5.0

The DarkSS is no more. On to better and faster. My motto for 2012 is lighter cars and lighter women. :jg:

I'm going with an 07 A6 because of the deal I found. More info to come shortly.

Carmax gave me an OK deal. About a grand less than what I wanted but I saved that in not having to make payment through the winter.

LS2 and a auto? That's going to be a turd.

Aren't the 08+ LS3's under 30K? When I was looking two years ago, I found some nice LS3's with low mileage in the 31-32K range.

A deal is a deal. If you could score a "turd" that makes 400hp and has 2 less forward gears in it for say 7-10 grand less you wouldn't? I know there is a 2 schools of thought on this and a big difference in price between an LS3/6A and a LS2/4A, but if your not looking for that last tenth of a second or even say a second because you just want it to cruise, wouldn't that 7-10 grand look a lot better in the bank or a a reduced payment?

They have kind of leveled out depending on the model. LS3's are holding pretty steady and if I wasn't buying a place I would probably get one. LS2 and C5 Z06's have dropped a bit. If you really hunt you can find an 08 LS3 for 29-30K, LS2 are as low as 23 and C5 Z's can be had for less than 20.
