Wow! Your story is a lot like mine! I sold a 2002 Vette Convertible to my best friend in NY. I traded my 2004 Grand Prix GTP on a new 2011 Cadillac CTS Performance Coupe. Getting down to one car was the purpose of all this! After only 2 months, I got very bored with the CTS Coupe and worked a good deal on my 2011 Camaro SS. The Caddy was a beautiful car, but not very much fun to drive! And yes, the gas mileage on the V6 Caddy was less than my SS LS3.

CARS
I use to be the person that would trade my car in every 24 months. I did it to my last 3 new cars I purchased. I didn't even keep them up to the 36 month time frame for the bumper to bumper warranty. I could trade my 2010 camaro in this upcoming January since I owned it for 24 months but I have decided to keep it for another year and get every penny out my factory warranty. Why give your factory warranty up to a complete stranger?? After my heater core died last month and now I have another warranty part on order a relay switch for my brights I'm going to continue to milk my bumper to bumper warranty even though my suspension part has been voided since last November the majority of my car is still covered. She only has 15,000 miles on her, been accident free, and I already spent too much money customzing her to my unique needs. I think though I will buy her a sinister hood next year and maybe a set of rims. It's a lot cheaper than going in and getting another camaro again and starting the modding process ALL OVER AGAIN.

I ended up buying used, but i'm glad I did...
I was going to "settle" with a '12 1SS... my price range was in the $32-34,000 range and I knew I couldn't get a 2SS with many options(if any for that)... my plan to pretty much get a stripper 1ss with the RS package, which was still going to be around $34,000 after it was all said and done... luckily, I ran across my car, which has every available option minus the GFX(which I'm not a fan of anyway) with only 5600 miles on it and I paid less than $34,000 for it(in fact only financed $32,800 and that is with GAP insurance thrown in)... even though I bought used, I was MUCH happier not settling than going out and buying something I was just going to settle with

33 k for a 2SS Vert is a steal... almost too good to be true! I traded a month old 2LT/RS Vert with 2400 miles and the dealer gave me 34,600.
I'd go over that car with a fine tooth comb. But if it checks out JUMP on it you can't loose... it will hold its value... not too many used verts around yet and there won't be in six months either. |

I can't imagine buying a car with the intention of only keeping it for 6 months. I get too attached to my vehicles. Regardless, I would wait until you get what you really want.!
