Meet Jaws!!!
(I love the movie).
This is my story. So after 2 weeks I left the offer on the table at the dealership. My grandmother passed away from cancer the week I was gonna get the car I got my degree in the mail that Monday and went showed it too her I told her I had a surprise and she's like "Is It outside??" I'm like "No...". So, 2 weeks later (This Monday) I got a call from Progressive Chevrolet in Ohio (hour away from me). They had a exactly what I wanted. The general manager John wanted the car off the lot I told him for how much, he pitched 32,635 without taxes and trade in. I took the offer thinking that something was fishy about it. I drove a hour away to look at the car and all of a sudden my transmission in the Cruze started slipping and the heater was turning on even when it was off...car only had 64,500 miles on it?? I was on my way there kind of doubting that I would get the Camaro. I went to Wendy's to get food, and when I was getting Gatorade, I found a penny heads up in front of me. (I'm not superstitious but I know it means good luck). I get to the dealership Thursday, they had the car detailed for me. (An okay job). I test drove it, went over every inch of the car trying to look for issues with the car. Couldn't find a damn thing. I sat there and starred at it and the more I sat in it, the more I looked at it I knew that this car was THE CAR. So, I put a decent amount down I worked my ass off for a year and a half, this is my first new car, first Camaro, and first loan in my name that I will keep forever. IN LOVE. What is she? 2017 Chevrolet Camaro 2LT V6 RS. Hyper Blue Metallic, Black Leather. 22 years old and saved my pennies worked 50-60 hours a week and went to school instead of going out to the bar every night like some of my friends. I had a dream, and I went and I did it. Insurance isn't that bad thank gosh, 108 a month 250 deductible. (Girlfriend Drives a 2016 Mustang V6 but she loves both of them). |

Beautiful car OP!! Love the hyper blue! I love hearing stories like yours. Seems so many younger people today think that things will just fall in their lap without doing anything. Nope...if you want something you gotta work for it!
Enjoy your new car man! |
