I'm starting college in September at UTI to become a certified BMW mechanic and I need some help making a decision, I know I want another and I'm determined to get one I just have one problem should I be a little more patient and find an SS? Or should I just pull the trigger ASAP and get a pretty sweet v6 again? I need help brothers and sisters

Edit: my old camaro was an RS/LT v6 I test drive the supercharged SS and WOW! My srt8 is a monster in my opinion and I'm not sure if the v6 with satisfy my needs but I know at my school ill be able to do loads of stuff to it
The saying "good things come to those who wait" really does apply in your situation. Just be patient and look for the right SS to come around.

Good Luck.

If you can't get a ZL1 fast enough then get an SS you can get them anywhere your dealer should be able to find you one and have it delivered to your area pretty quick!

Be patient save and find an SS that you like. From what you are saying you won't be happy in a V6.

For the record, Carfax gets records from states, insurance companies, dealers, etc. They do not get accident records from the previous owners. I've seen cars that were almost totaled, that had perfect vehicle history reports. Don't buy into the carfax bull shit.
