Great looking car and congrats on kicking the habit! That dual mode exhaust is sweet. I really wanted it on mine!

I quit drinking 2 1/2 years ago and was able to bump to the 2SS Camaro and buy a Harley Electra Glide classic to boot! Amazing the money I spent on alcohol! Cigs at $6 a pack can add up fast!

Dang, Camaro and a Harley. The little lady would slaughter me! I've been living in Madison WI for the last 2 months (Work thing) and it was $9 a pack up there. Doing that math was easy haha. I love the look of your SS.

Congrats on the improved lung function and the beautiful new ride! The

how many packs a day you smoke. here on long island a pack goes for 11 dollars or so.

$11?! That's obnoxious. I was up to a pack a day. Life is good and I haven't stopped smiling since I drove her off the lot.

Congrats on the nice ride! PermAGrin is right! I too enjoy the occasional cigar. Cigs are whack though, don't go back!

Great move! Congrats on both.

Congrats on quitting smoking and using the money on the upgrade.

I did the same thing 2 years ago. Figured 1 pack a day, $10 a pack for $300 per month. That's a car payment. It was a no brainer. I won't even smoke a cigar for fear of going back. It is so worth using the car as an incentive to quit.

Looks like I need to pick up smoking a couple packs a day and then quit in a year, then I'll be able to upgrade to a ZL1
the drug addiction will teach me to save money for what my body thinks is important... then I'll be able to do anything!
