I have all the papers ready to go and signed,if order is put in now i should have it by oct 15th as they arent even being built until sept 3rd, if i do demod im assuming i will get just reg trade in at 32k. Im a ase tech and all the mods i have done myself so i wont lose install money but im still unsure of what to do.

I wouldn't do it unless you plan to take the 1LE to the track.

Yep. $35,800 for yours? That is very hard to believe, even with you paying msrp for the 1LE. Did you miss a $1900 doc fee slipped in somewhere in the deal?

So you gonna answer the question? You gonna use it for the track and drive the car or just spend money to keep collecting dust? I mean my car is a garage queen, doesn't touch snow, avoid bringing it out in rain and I don't drive it to work but I got about 10,000 miles on it over the year from "spirited driving"... Not trying to bash you, just trying to help. It's a lot of cash if you're not gonna use the car.

i would prob take it to the track but im a mechanic days and firefighter/paramedic nights so the use of it is limited. I prob will hold off due to the fact wife is bugging about having a car payment for the same thing i basically have just 2 year newer.

Good call and after awhile you're gonna realize you made the right choice. You have a wonderful car and to lose so much money for a few upgrades isn't really worth it, unless you're a hard core racer... And every year something new comes out and people lose tens of thousands of dollars just to be in with the "new". Enjoy, you got a top of the line ss with a 6.2 v8.

What I'd like to know is when the hell is the 1LE going to be available,and yes take that trade if you know that is what you really want to do!I still hate the day I traded my 02SS 35th I only got 15000 and it was a good car never a problem for five years,only replaced the water pump.

I'll keep it. Why trade in for 2013? U already have the Camaro plus mods. I can see if it was a 2lt trading up for a SS. But what do I know it's your money....
