Sad day for me yesterday...

For the first time in almost 16 years I am now Camaro less...
I sold my last Camaro (2012 2SS) as I moved to a C7 Z51..
I still can't believe BEE is gone... I will always love Camaros and I'll be on the forums as usual, who knows, maybe another one in the distant future???

I was contemplating trading my 2012 for a Gen 6 and the new prices have put it so close to C7 range that I started to think about getting one if a great deal was available and after about one year of looking and looking I found one and pulled the trigger.

Rock on Camaro friends!

It was a very happy day when I got the C7 a couple of weeks ago, but was sad yesterday when I had to let BEE go..

I agree Alex the Gen 6 is barking in the C7's price range now. I too looked at some C7's but alas I do love my fat a$$ed girl so I decided to stick with her. Congrats on the C7 beautiful ride!

I'd rather have that than a 6th gen Camaro any day. Sweet ride.

Let's face it unless we can afford to stash our 5th gens in a barn somewhere, forget about them for 30 years, and fight to keep the mice out of them most of us have to part with them sooner or later. They are all just "pre-loved" used cars now.

I've had my V6 5th Gen for 2 years and 2 months now, have 32,300 miles on it, and still get excited every morning when I fire it up to drive to work.
