"Should trade it in for a 5.0..."
... is what some dude at the Auto Craft shop said when I mentioned I was trading my 2011 for a 2012. "Stock, with just drag radials, you'll be in the 11's! A shot of nitrous and you're in the 10's!!!" So I say...
"Oh yeah! And my mother-in-law has a Mustang, too. We'll be twinzies!!!"

The glory of that 1/2 - 1 second victory at the track in NO way makes up for downright BADASS sexiness the Camaro brings to the table.

Why are you trading in your 2011 for a 2012?
Color? Steering wheel? FE4? 45 yr edition?

Mainly for the 45th Ann. Edition. But the Rear Vision and FE4 didn't hurt the decision. I went through BeckyD @ Rodgers and she gave me a deal that kept my payment the same to the dollar.

With Transformers bringing the Camaro up there, the Mustangs are like GTOs these days... long and forgotten. Everyone and their mother own a Mustang and it's just boring when you see them on the road. Unless it's a Boss, a Saleen, or Shelby. The rest is cr@p!
I love my 2SS!! After I saw Transformers 3 last night, I'm so glad I got a Camaro.

Hope your mother in law doesn't call you out, that could be embarrassing.

Yeah, it'll add 4-5 months of payments, depending on when it's delivered. But I can live with that. I've known several people that have payed on a car for years, then trade it in "for the same payment" on a new 72 mo. lease.
One reason this was possible was because my loan APR will drop 1.3% with the 2012. That's thanks to Becky as well!
