you sound like a poser bro. your trying to convince us that lexus is better. for the v6 lfx, it does damn good for a 6. Better than the 60's, 70's,80's,90's and 2002 v8 camaros. your already convinced, so stop trying to convince us and sell your camaro, drive your lexus and head over to lexus5

I am not a poser. I sell cars for a living and have never had one for more than 2 years. I always flip them and make money because I can buy them at what the dealer pays for it.

The lexus gs350 is by far a better car than the camaro and I am not talking about speed. I'm talking about build quality options and technology. With that said I still really enjoy my camaro and honestly could go either way which is why I asked for some opinions. You are entitled to your own but there's no need to call me a "Poser".

The payment assistance thing sounds like a way to talk yourself into something that you don't really want. Nobody does quality (production) like Mercedes Benz. Good luck!
I am not spending that much. I currently pay $400 a month on my camaro(48mo loan). I won't have it until it's paid off. I'd be paying $200 a month for the Lexus for 36 months which is only about $7200. At the end of my lease I should be in equity position as the GS's coming off lease now and under miles are. I only drive 5000 miles a year so that wouldn't be a problem. I would actually be saving money by driving the lexus provided that I am able to retain my car allowance.

At least he's not thinking about getting a stang. Kinda honored to be the runner up to Lexus, but would love to see a Camaro on their lot.

I went ahead and did it. $550 a month with $0 down on a $60,000 car is hard to pass up especially when I get a $450 car allowance towards it.

Goodbye C5 it's been real. Still loved my camaro but I couldn't turn this deal down.



My mods are now for sale. Check them out!
