The stares are just too cool. I can never get enough of that.

So, when it comes to getting the 5th Gen, I don't have the same "bond" w/ the SS as I did the Z28. I SERIOUSLY don't want to see it go. My wife already said we are going to try to work it out so we can keep it. But, I know it's going.....just no way to afford it. Right now, she's in perfect shape. If they mess w/ the 5th Gen too much, or they don't offer the right options for me, I'm going to hold off. I'm VERY happy where I'm at right now. So, I know exactly how you feel, Ed. She's part of the family.

I'm in a similar boat as this too. This car has gotten me in more trouble with my wifey than anything because I love it so much. It's just not going to be practical to keep it though; I wish I could. If I can get the car I want from GM, the sting won't be as bad, but I know I'll miss her. I've kept her up like I've been planning to keep her forever but I'm sure I'll be forced to sell her in order to be in a position to get the car I want (or will have to make.) I feel your pain and it's heartbreaking for me to think about...
