Well my dream is over. I sold my 2010 yesterday. Guess I should change my sig now....

On a brighter note. My wife said in a couple of years she will be willing to reconsider learning to drive a stick. Sweet! She also says the ZL1 is a hot looking car. So time will tell.

Happy trails and keep enjoying your rides. I will still be drooling when I see a 5th Gen Camaro.

Bummer, what did you buy?

BackinBlackSS/RS · 08-19-2011, 07:06 PM

So you sold it because she could not drive a stick? Man, I am sorry to hear that. :(

Exactly what I was wondering.

If she couldn't or wasn't willing to drive a stick...time for a new wife!

Let's hear more details, OP!

trade for a automatic duuuur lol

Bellringer · 08-20-2011, 10:20 AM

I sold it because I weighed my options. New boat and truck or my camaro. Figured I can have more fun on the water for a couple of years and then get another car when my son stops wanting to hang out with his old man.

No regrets. I did take my wife out for a test drive in a 2011 2ss stick and she was floored at the difference! That's why the next one will be a M6.

later all.

Not sure I would want a wife that was willing to crush my dream.

1Camaro2SS · 08-20-2011, 10:42 AM

good luck man, and enjoy that boat. I thought about trading for a boat but I just don't have a place to store it at the house and summers are too short here in Chicago.

I bought the auto so my wife can drive it but I now sort of regret it because she hardly drives the Camaro. I am really considering the ZL-1 if the price is not too steep and I told the wife it would be a manual and she would need to learn to drive it.

He said he wanted a boat instead. His wife also doesn't want a selfish husband.

Kathie63 · 08-20-2011, 10:52 AM

I would never tell my husband he couldn't have the car he wanted! I got the car I wanted and he can have what he wants. I don't think that is selfish on his part. Could be selfish on her part or maybe jealousy.

sounds p.w.'d to me !

Who's that standing next to your car in your picture? Your wife? As a consolation, after today, you'll only be suffering in silence.
