I don't have a 5th gen currently. I've owned 2 2010 2SSs though. I had a black M6 that I got in 2010 and traded it in a year later for the car in my sig. I never should have sold that car. I got rid of it when I got the Avalanche. One of those decisions I wish I hadn't made.
I work at a Chevy dealership so I'm getting employee pricing and rebates and I have a $1000 private offer. I'm getting really good pricing on both cars. The leftover 2011 is over $5k off of sticker and 0% for 72 months. It's a great deal on the car, I'm just not sold on silver or the automatic. |

Go with a Smart car. http://www.smartusa.com/models/passi.../overview.aspx
0% for 60 Mo. 15000.00$, great gas mileage! Convertable & I think 15 inch tires. You will still be the talk of the hood. Lol |

The 2SS is a leftover 2011 so I get all of the dealer cash, plus the employee discount and rebate and I have a $1000 private offer. MSRP is 38,250 and I'm buying it for like $32,XXX plus tt&l. With 0%, it's the same payment as a 2012 2LT that has an MSRP of just over $32k since it has 3.9% interest and no dealer cash. |

Sounds like you might as well go with the 2SS to me then if you can deal with the color and automatic transmission. Personally I would not go with an automatic, and it sounds like you would rather have the stick as well.
Maybe Memorial Day will bring some incentives/financing on the 2012's? |

I searched and finally found my white 2SS which was exactly what I would have ordered. Drove that one for a while and decided to get the Avalanche because it was a great deal and we were talking about getting a boat. My commute was shorter then too. I ended up switching jobs and making less money so we decided the boat was a no go. I figure if I'm going to get a car that's more fuel efficient, that's also in my price range, I might as well get another Camaro. |

Can you have the dealership buy you a used SS at an auto auction for cheap and sell it to you for pretty cheap?

If the right one came along with really low miles, I would consider it. I've even called dealers on Autotrader to see if they would wholesale a car to us but the price has always been higher than what I want to pay. |

Can you find a dealer within a reasonable distance with a 2011 in a color you would like better and with the LS3 and trade the silver 2011 for their 2011?

Save your $$ and keep your avalanche.
