This is when I realized you were yanking our chain.. you're too smart to pay that much for that car

After ogling it for some time, it didn't take me long to realize what I was missing-- I mean, it's SUCH a huge difference between the V6 and the V8. Seriously. You just can't even compare the two; the V6 is *so* inferior.

So it took very little prodding from my male companion to get me to sign the paperwork, and I'm now the owner of an AH-MAZING car, instead of my poor old dog turd of a V6. I'm not concerned at all about the huge money I'm losing with all of my mods, or the big hit I took in depreciation on a car less than a year old. Or the fact that my daily commute is 80 miles, and gas prices suck... It's ALL WORTH IT!!!!! Especially since I got SUCH a good deal on the car. It was only $39,550!!! So with tag, tax, etc, it was about $43k. Talk about an AMAZING DEAL-- Of COURSE I paid asking price!

I KNEW you were:

You had me going, cause I saw your "All most summertime" album on FB and it showed an SS in the pictures?

LOL! That's actually someone else's Camaro, not mine. We decided to do an impromptu photo shoot after a road trip

haha nice one. i admit you had me going for a few posts. but glad your not leaving the v6 crowd

Dealership here has had two IBM's just sitting on the lot for awhile now. Took me awhile to realize they were IBM. No offense or anything but I seriously thought the dealership had two very dirty black ones for the longest time.

I like to go visit the dealership Sasuke came from and see what they have. It seems like the majority of what they get is black, SW, CGM/AGM, SIM, and IBM. Ive only seen one SGM and IOM since we've lived here sitting there.
And my god the price tag you posted.

Belle, that was good. I was ready to take the hook until the last two lines. The $$ and the statement that you paid FULL price just gave it away! Good job!

She even had me going.

Like, DURRRRRRR dumb.

Forgive me if any of the math is incorrect or a little off-- I was an arts major

My Trans AM WS6 payment was: $329.13

My TBSS payment was: $550.17

My Camaro SS payment is: $657.36

I GUESS YOU CAN SLAP A HELMET ON ME AND CALL ME A RETARD.

LOL! No, not really-- it may be financially feasible for you! Which is totally cool. And if I wanted to, I could afford it-- but why trade a $300 payment for a $600 when I don't need to, kwim?

I'd rather use that money for other things and keep my V6 daily driver. It would be dumb for me to do otherwise, in my opinion.

Beautiful car by the way
