I know how you feel, Ed. I felt the same way about my Z28. It was special ordered EXACTLY how I wanted it. It was very special to me. Heck, even my wife said I loved my car more than her (which, of course, isn't true). But I spent a lot of time in the Z. I put a lot of miles on it and got compliments everywhere I went. The stares are just too cool. I can never get enough of that.
So, when it comes to getting the 5th Gen, I don't have the same "bond" w/ the SS as I did the Z28. I SERIOUSLY don't want to see it go. My wife already said we are going to try to work it out so we can keep it. But, I know it's going.....just no way to afford it. Right now, she's in perfect shape. If they mess w/ the 5th Gen too much, or they don't offer the right options for me, I'm going to hold off. I'm VERY happy where I'm at right now. So, I know exactly how you feel, Ed. She's part of the family.
