ran into a friend today that bought a 2011 LS camaro years ago. the day he bought the car he kept telling me how happy he was with the car... i was like ok dude i hope so you are paying for it.. he kept telling me he did not want leather fog lights 4-pack gauges cluster and it was fast enought for him.. i was like good for you i can tell he was full of crap fast foward to today.. he was asking me how hard would it be to add leather fog lights gauges.. i said i thought you where happy with out all that stuff he tells me he never said that. i was like really how long have you been looking to do all this he tells me for the last 2 years SMH.. why do people say they are happy with what they bought and you know they are full of crap i see it and hear it all the time. i just told him good luck and take care.. now i know people will say anyone can add or change their mind on their car i get it.. but dont stand their and be so Adamant about it like i am the crazy one.....

I have a friend who bought a 13 rs. he found out mine was an ss. added the nighthawk stripes, ss badges, ss spoiler, ss grille badge thing, brembos, some stuff on the inside etc. I said either drive a ss or crush your car.

It looks like a case of buyers remorse denial.

same with hifi..many people claim to have found the ultimate sounding system then a few months later want to change it.
the honeymoon period soon wears off with most things then reality sets in..that's why buying a v6 if your serious about cars is gonna be a big mistake

People are seldom honest with themselves. I have had buddies like that..

NO but now wants headers PTB TUNE... i just walking away and told him good luck.. thats one less liar in my life i have to deal with......

I didn't want a V8, leather, fog lights, etc... OK I'm lying, I wanted all of that but it came down to price. Actually I wasn't looking for Camaro, I wanted a new car that I liked for under 25K.

The 1LS is a good deal for the money. I would love to have a Z-28 or SS but I would rather have my car and my GMC Canyon. I got both for the price of a 2SS

I went down the mod rabbit hole with my Mustang Gt when I was kid. I kept adding to it to make it faster but it was never enough. I agree with you all that you are lying if you say you don't want those things on your car. Just be honest and say, you can't afford those options.

If I could afford it I would have a c6 vette. (Not crazy about the new vette)
