I have to say the hardest thing to decide on is the color. IMO most of the colors I have seen so far looks awesome. I would like to get the Bumblebee paint scheme if GM offers it, but it has to be that yellow. No matter what color I choice I would likely get stripes with it. Plus, I want to get the sharkfin painted the same color as the body color. It's an eyesore. It's too bad they can't design a paint that can change color at the push of a button, maybe someday with nanotechnology?

The only other thing I am thinking about is should I get a Z/28 or an RS SS? Since no details are available on the Z/28 (The biggest thing being if they will offer an automatic, it's fuel economy- hoping for 20 MPG or higher, and the price) I can't decide on this yet. If it comes in below $40k fully loaded I would buy, if it cost much more than $40k I will probably go with an SS. I don't want to be making car payments until I am 30.

What I do know is that I will find a way to own this car, it will be fully loaded, and it will be a V8 coupe. With the sunroof and automatic tranny of course.

MY Dilemma is figuring out what options I can afford without breaking my budget.

Really my only dilemma is do I want a hardtop SS and have to pay for premium gas (with worse MPG's) and insane insurance or do I want a really well fitted V6 RS 'vert with lower upkeep costs?

Amen, I learned on my brand new 'Stang with no lessons whatsoever. I just had someone who knew how to drive it come with me and drive it away from the dealer then, once we got to an empty parking lot, I took over. It kinda sucked not being able to drive it off the lot myself, but it was still well worth it. Plus if I'd have messed up the clutch or anything, it still had a full warranty.

That's my dilemma. I think getting the SS with the RS package will suffice for me. It means I'll be sacrificing other luxuries, but all I want is my 400 horses.

I think the $40,000 I have will be enough for a loaded SS/RS LS3 Coupe.

That's my dilemma... my wife isn't going to park her Trailblazer outside, so do I have to park my 96 Camaro outside or the new Camaro? I would hate to leave either outside... So, I will likely have to move in order to get a 3 car garage or build another garage at my current place.

Do I go ahead and place an order from Afghanistan so I have it as soon as I get back? Do I pay off my old loan so I have money for aftermarket parts? Do I want HUD? Can I bear to wait until I can order one with exactly what I want? Orange or Grey? Or maybe Silver?
