go with the camaro. The BMW requires a mandatory How to drive like Douche class and if you haven't already enrolled, it's totally worth the hassle of selling it.

Bonus is long term maintenance will be easier since two camaro's will share much of the same required tools and such despite the different engines.

The v6 is an amazing car. I thought I would not enjoy it much since I did want the v8. But due to not be able to afford the v8. The next best thing was the v6. I didn't even test drive the v6 yet when I decided I wanted the v8. And I am glad I did. Because the v6 is still an amazing car. I kind of thought it felt slow. But when I go on road trips with my friends. Every time I take off, to them it's really fast. I guess it's the design in the car that makes the cabin feel stable? Well anyways. It's an amazing car. Just hoping for a turbo or supercharger soon to get it a more of a thrill like the v8.

I thought the LFX was pretty amazing. Can't imagine the LGX!

What you could do is you could slap it up on AutoTrader Kijiji since I do see it's a 2013 you never bought it new. and see if you can make a buck or two on it put it up for a thousand bucks more than you paid see what happens if it sells then so be it if not then drive it

My second question would be how much did you pay for that BMW that you're trying to sell. Or more importantly how much can you get for it because I'm wondering if you have to settle for an ex daily rental Camaro or can you get yourself a nice RS with a few extras including the NPP exhaust that you'll enjoy a lot more than a base LT

As far as fun goes I think you have a hell of a lot more fun driving the Camaro over the BMW
Ha ha, all good points and ideas, but really it comes down to... do I really want to trade already. The BMW really is a great car, and in spite of the excesssive maint costs I really like it. I bought the BMW right, so I'm pretty sure I can recover everything I'm in to it for, or at least not lose much. I'd probably have to throw another $5k towards the Camaro to get one with any goodies, and that's part of the problem.... I'm a guy that likes the extras so it's hard for me to buy a basic LT! That's why my SS is a loaded 2SS!

The V6 Camaro is 100 hp bump from the 328, weighs less, gets better fuel economy, burns regular grade gas, has more technology, costs less to maintain, and comes with a long warrentee! Lol....what am I waiting for? Ha ha!

I bought an SS. Awesome car and I love it. But if I'd waited a year. I'd have seriously considered a V6 1LE.

I could've bought a V6 1LE for what I paid for my car, lol. But it wasn't out yet and I didn't want to wait. Oh well, I'm still happy with what I got!

I have 26,000 miles on my 2016 V6 M6 and I still love it every time I get behind the wheel! I have 335 HP and get 24 MPG while cherping the tires in every turn.

It's worth its weight in gold brother it just sounds ridiculous like a car that would be in a much higher bracket in this car honestly like a Ferrari. I hope GM keeps this exhaust for a long time into the future I would definitely spring for it again. You can always look for the aftermarket to see what they can do for you I'm sure there's some pretty awesome stuff out there.

I forwent the NPP on my V6, added the GM/Borla performance exhaust and personally I enjoy that sound even better than the NPP. It's more of a lower pitch growl. Can't go wrong with either, just personal preference.

Sweet! I'm so glad to hear you say this!! I didn't get the NPP either and am getting the GM (aka Borla S-type) Performance exhaust later this month, can't wait!
