My new car !!!
I lost my '09 Pontiac G8 GT to an impaired driver 2-months ago....
Still hurting & injured from it :( But I just bought & took delivery Friday evening of a '14 Camaro SS coupe in Crystal Red Tintcoat with dual matte black stripes, & black interior. I really wanted a '14 Chevy SS sedan (from Australia) with a LS3 & 6L80 transmission; but they are only available in the US in limited #'s (like maybe 5000?). http://www.chevrolet.com/ss-sports-sedan.html GM Canada had 0% financing over 5-years on the in stock '14 Camaros. I jumped on it! I found the only '14 Camaro SS (with a 2SS option group, a RS package, & sunroof) coupe in Crystal Red Tintcoat colour in ON available for sale There were only about 11 various '14 Camaro SS (with the 2SS option group) in ON left on the dealers' lots 2-weeks ago. & I heard there are now only 2 in black left in ON after this round of promos. While my car was being displayed & stored for me last week at Wilson Niblett... 2 people wanted to buy it :eek: 1 ended up doing a factory order because they really like how the colour looked...& skipped out on the 0% financing promo. I guess, I lucked out But unfortunately, this is my daily driver; like my G8 was too :( For the winter... Got some RSSW 19"x8" rims with some Pirelli Scorpion Winter tires in 235/55/19" 105H & with it's winter shoes on. the 19"x8" rims just (barely) clear the Brembo brakes

Awesome looking ride Mike! I love the CRT with the Rally Stripes..just beautiful! Did you get the L99 model or the LS3?
BTW, im curious why you didn't reuse the 18" Winter rims and tires from your G8? I only say this because I see you're selling them. They have the same bolt pattern as the 5th gen and I know they won't clear the front 'roller skates' on the factory brake pads, however a set of front pads are a lot cheaper then a full set of wheels and tires I'd think? From what ive seen and researched only the factory pads have the roller skates. Beautiful car...maybe we can take some pics soon since mines my daily too
