Should i keep my 2011 camaro or buy the cts? help please

I dont know what to do i need help. I have had my 11 camaro for almost a year now and i like it alot, its a great car, but theres just not much room at all i hate trying to reach out the window, and theres no room in the backseat. My sister said she would sell me her 2003 black cts coupe with light tan leather with sunroof thats in great shape back seat hasnt been sat in since she has had it. I owe some money on the camaro and if i got her car i wouldnt owe anything. I just think having a car with no payments is a big weight off ur shoulders. Need some help on my decision, should i keep the 11 camaro or get the black cts? This is driving me crazy lol. fun or practical? payment or no payments? Im looking to get a place soon too but i feel like i cant have both i guess im just thinking practical what do you guys think? i owe about 13,000 on the camaro.

IMO, i would way the gas mileage/cost of gas/ how far i drive. in my case even though i would have payments the more cost effective choice for me would be to keep the camaro, but if it was a CTS V....i would totally pick it and drive the $,hit out of it lol

First, they did not make a CTS Coupe till the newer body style.

Nice car, no payments but if it breaks it is out of warranty too.

I would keep what you have an pay it off. sacrifice comes with owning anything..

If something breaks on her cts then ur gonna be stuck with a repair bill. If u keep the camaro u won't have to worry about problems as it's under warranty. I would keep the camaro as the cts is too old in my opinion. I'm sure the gas mileage is horrible too. Does it require premium?

Man, hard to believe a 2003 vehicle is almost 9 years old now... that's crazy! For that reason alone I'd keep the Camaro. The CTS is a great car but those early redesign models are starting to look dated to me.

As many have said, a nearly 10 year old car is going to start to need repairs, I love having the security of a new(er) vehicle, and knowing that if there's anything wrong with it I only have myself or the manufacturer to blame.
