Wait till 2012? - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Go ahead and buy the 2010 or 2011 SS and modify it to suit your fondest desires. Waiting for a supercharged 2012 may be a disappointment; it will
not be equipt with a twin screw. Get yourself a KB and go faaast.

wait till 2012

I actually drove a 1SS/RS A6 yesterday just to see how it felt. I was surprised to find that I did not get blown away. First of all, it was very quiet compared to my car due to the stock exhaust (Flowmasters are great on the V6 by the way). Now, don't get me wrong, I know that car is much faster than mine, but it did not seem to be that different during normal driving. I'm sure it would be different at WOT, but I don't go WOT very much. Bottom line, I didn't feel like the the engine upgrade alone was worth the money ($10K or more over what my car is worth now). So, I'm going to wait until the 12's come out and see how I feel about it. Nothing really to lose. If the 12's are nothing special, I should be able to pick up a remaining 11 for a much better price. Thanks for all the comments.

The Mayan calendar "runs out" after 2012, thus predicting the end of the world. The last year of their calendar......................as far as they chose to make it.

Also a recent movie on the subject simply called 2012.

You seen any Mayans around lately? Maybe they figured their civilization would end in 2012. Looks like they made the calender a few hundred years too long.

There are millions of Mayans living, speaking their own language, immersed in their own culture in the Yucatán, though they no longer inhabit their erstwhile cities in the jungle.

My deepest apologies to any ancient peoples I have offended with my remarks. Gotta go, I have a lunch meeting with a Toltec.

Then there is no need to wait till 2012 unless you want to wait for cars that they might make like the Z28 or SSX. Buy your SS and enjoy !

Hang on for the 2035's they're going to have wings and be powered by Pratt & Whitney. at least that's the rumors.....

If you can afford to trade in a car after a year and a half (or so), you can afford a $45K car.

midnighter · 11-23-2010, 03:25 PM

Get one now, and get a newer one then.

KeeBee · 11-23-2010, 03:28 PM

The SS may have more HP and the updated interior. Hopefully new colors as well.

Too many ifs and whats on the Z28 right now. Might be hard getting a hold of one.

Not if you still are making payments on said car.
