And I say rock on! I've taken real losses to have it my way now. You pay to play.

I think you've made a great decision as you would have to dump hella cash to have gotten your v6 to perform like your ss. But I'm sure you won't leave the v8 "alone"

Congrats!!!!

I have always made bad deals and never made out well. Sometimes we just get the urge and have to do what you got to do! so as long as youare not starving yourself and your happy then good for you!
Enjoy!

Might just take a ride down to my dealer today and see what they would give me for mine! I want to do the Ported throttle bodies, manifold, isolator, tune etc... but was thinking that maybe all that cash added up would be a nice down payment applied to a trade in\up!
Would hate to find out I could have been in the ball park if I had $1k-$2K more etc...

So tempting!!!

Oh, hell with it! I'm heading down now!

Hate you guys!

Do you hate the 'old' steering wheel versus the one you had in the 12?

Congrats on the SS upgrade.

Thats what happened to me.. instead of spending 2k+ to add headers and tune.. just dropped it as a down payment for a newer car with 120 more horses.

Congrats to the OP..

Just got back but no go for now! They only had autos and that is a deal breaker for me plus nothing in my ball park used. Need to find something for around $27K-$30K tops and put $1k_$2K down to get where I can afford it. They said they would keep looking and if one comes in they will give me a call.
Were giving me $19+K for my base LS.

Oh what to do?
