it is going to be tough because i have a lot of time, money, and fun into my car. it has been a blast but when a cavalier beat me on the highway i said that's enough. i am upgrading to this, although it will never have the looks of a 3rd gen, it is close.

your nuts i got beat by a minivan on the hiway and i didnt go all haywire. these cars suck top end. tpi anyway plus my gears without speedo gear shut my car off 20mph sooner hang onto it. buy the 4th gen to

91z 2 8

minus the hood that cars sexy keep it and get the SS. love those wheels on your third gen

camaro8811

are you kidding me? the hood's the nicest part of the car. i cannot have both. i have no money. it's one or the other. i just want to try something new, i'm only 17.

JUST so everyone knows, i am not selling it because i got beat. i just said that, but that is not the reason. i mainly want a manual. also, i thought i'd try the newer style.

JesterHead1651

....how did you get beat by a cavalier....

Tobias05

it may be faster, but i think you'll regret it down the road. theres a few 3rd gens on the road but everyone and their uncle has a 4th gen.

nothing wrong with an LT1 either, but you're already at a disadvantage compared to an LSX when it comes time to mod.

that 3rd gen would be really nice if it had the black door handles, but good luck with the 4th gen, it may be uglier but at least it wont loose to a cavalier!

I can't hate on you for wanting to go faster but your 3rd gen is nice (exept the hood IMHO). Hey at least you're gonna get another Camaro so its ok.
Hell in the end as long as you're happy with it, it's all that matters.
Still, hope there was a way you could both. Good luck with the SS.

first off i suggest keeping the 3rd.


second, if you want a 4th, that one is way overpriced. At least in my eyes. I see good LS1 cars for only $500 - $1000 more around here

Wmoyer2006

it's always hard to say goodbye to your first car, i know i'm having trouble doing it.

camaro8811

it is as underpriced as a 4th gen can get. it is a 1 of 2499 made ss. 1st year of the ss in 24 years. it has the even rarer option of factory slp exhaust. it's got leather, t tops, power everything, etc. the average book value for it is 11,500.

but i agree, overpriced.

TorqueTilla

yeah hes right, its deff overpriced it has over 100k miles on it, i could see if it was around like 80k mabbe hed get what hes asking, but i just bought a 95 z28 with 68k miles on it for 4300.

camaro8811

double

camaro8811

IT'S AN SS!!!!! with the factory slp exhaust it has more hp than an ls1. it's 1 of 2499. i can get it for $6000. you show me an ss for cheaper and i'll shut up.

Stephen

IMO, just get a LT1/T56 & put those in your 3rd gen. 4th gens have power, stock, but traded in styling/looks for the extra power.

Pretty simple swap. WAY wasier than a LS1 swap.

man you guys don't read do you? i said i have no money! it's one or the other. i don't have 2 grand for a lt1/t56 swap.

mesterz2889

i say get the ss but you should be banned for betraying us also thats quite a bit of miles on it granted its nice buts thats 100k miles of beating. i say give the guy $100 to hold on to it and look for something else

Stephen

I said IN MY OPINION. Don't bead a ........

You have the $6000 to buy the SS, but not the $2000 for a LT1/T56?

Yeah....You can sell your car...You gonna get $6000 for it? No.

here you go http://nashville.craigslist.org/car/732359485.html buy this and get a new motor and trans and save $2500 there are good deals out there.

And what the hell man your car is sweet i love the hood (i wouldnt put it on my car cause of the way it looks straight on) you have obviously put a lot of time and money into your car, just dont race anybody for a little bit save and get a 6 speed

freestylzz

Sweet dreams!

camaro8811

i'm finished with this, but be my guest. keep trashing me!

irocz28boy

I agree with everyone, and Stephen. Your 3rd gen looks much nicer and you're not going to get $6,000 out of it, so with the difference you'd have to pay for the SS, you could do the LT1/T56 swap. Better decision, IMHO. It's up to you though.

TorqueTilla

noooooo you didnttttttttt

Frozer!!!

Even when the Camaro loses, it wins because its a camaro. And that 4th gen is almost in LS1 price range as the others have said. Keep the thirdgen!

84 maro

im not trying to fuel another argument but i saw two posts that said its car 1 of 2499 or whatever but doesn't the add say 101??? or do numbers start at that? cuz it seems like your hung on that car number 1 when it says 101... but i could be a complete idiot and don't understand it

irocz28boy

It is 1 of the 2499 made is all he's saying. It's actual number that it is, is 101.

goomaan

So how much are you asking for your third gen?

Don't hate on the guy because he wants to try something new. Enjoy the SS!!!!
