All good, no offence taken. Every Camaro I’ve owned has had T-roofs or sunroofs. The two are a together thing for me.

I do love my Carbon Fibre Insert, it gets a lot of compliments. Really glad I got it.

I know I’ve posted this like 100 times but I should’ve kept my yellow 2SS when I upgraded to the ZL1. As for switching my ZL1, hell no. Crush Orange for me could not get better ever. So I’m stuck with her. Lol.

That $70k might be better invested in US Steel (X) stock |

Also, if he had a SS and was upgrading then I would say go for it. But he already has a ZL1 that I'm pretty sure he doesn't owe $70K on. So it wouldn't be prudent right now to trade in for the same thing just because his was a used car purchase and this one is brand new and it has a few extra electronic features and apps. |

So - As the other fellow said, I thought this was an informative, knowledgeable based forum for gathering facts and especially car information about 6th gen Camaro etc etc...? It seems to have gotten of track and turned into a thread about finances, and the state of the economy, as well as soap box preaching about the pitfalls of loans, and buying vehicles with cash / loans , scratching head ...???

As far as the OP, he works hard has $ and wants a new car, with a longer warrantee. I see nothing wrong with what he wants to do. |

Had an SS, then a Z, & probably soon another one. All my only DD at a time. Maybe I have all those other things, or not, doesn’t matter. Maybe I don’t want to wait to take advantage of other people’s misfortunes because I don’t define myself by that, or what I own, but by my works & what I provide for people & how satisfied they are with those works. In return I am blessed with being able to afford my very first new personal car. Not my business’s, not my wife’s, but my own. For the record I could easily pay cash for this car & keep mine. Seriously. That would, however, set us back on other things that I I have planned to use that financial liquidity on to make more money, or pay off my house faster, or… on & on. To finance $30K on a $70K vehicle is, as a model of percentages, no different that <$15K on a $30k, or <$10k on a $20k one so I’m quite comfortable in doing so. Thank you for your concern of my financial stability, but it’s not your call. Quote:
Funny story; When I got my ZL1 my employees were checking it out & one that’s quite cheeky told a story “A boss came to work one day with a new car. He looked at his admiring employee & said, “If you work hard every day & dedicate yourself to doing great work, one day I might be able to buy another one.” I looked at his grinning face, cracked a slanted smile, raised an eyebrow & said, “Maybe so. Now get back to work.” |

All I can say is congrats. Getting a new ZL1 is something few get to experience, and the Cherry colour is top notch. Enjoy

I don’t know - honestly, I’d rather have a really nice house over a bunch of cars and stuff, but to each, their own, makes the World go round.

However with the crisis on our hands from this Pandemic there are many people who bought houses or multiple houses and are about to lose them. This is not really a good time to be a home owner. I know at least 7 people who are about to lose their homes. And more who are losing their businesses. Such a shame. It is a bad time in this country for sure. Reports are already calling for record breaking numbers of evictions, foreclosures, and repossessions. |
