So I know alot of you thought I should keep the olds, BUT

I talked it over with the wife... The olds is for sale, she is going to keep my 03 SS silverado ( her car is junk ) and I am going to use the olds money for a big down payment on a Black SS!!!!! I just dont see me getting a camaro without doing this, we are having kids soon and owning 4 cars is not on the list! So I will be a one car guy, so cheers... your looking at a new member hopfully soon! Anyone intrested in the olds or knows some one who might let me know.

Keep the Olds. It's sweet. And just like everyone else said, you put your hard earned money along with your heart and sole into that car. Hang on a little longer and buy a used '10 Camaro or something.

If you have any doubt about it keep the Cutluss!

I am going to pretend I didn't read this post.

Please tell me it was a non numbers matching beater or something. Still nto the move I would have made, but come on. I have a thing for the '70 GS though. That 455 is just sweet.

Keep the Olds. I have a 66 Tempest/LeMans that I have had for over 22 yrs and I have a lot of memories. Im currently going through a ground up rebuild but is on hold for a couple of years until the Camaro is paid for. I have often though about selling her but I know I would regret it in the long run.

Just remember, they produce more Camaros in 1 month than Cutlass' in the entire '70 model year.

Don't get me wrong, you will have alot of fun in the new Camaro.

I'd keep the Cutlass, love my Camaro but i'm an old school girl. Anyone can go down the street and buy a 2011 Camaro, it will never be rare or unique.

Bad70supreme · 10-21-2010, 06:05 PM

Belive it or not, since the camaro came out... I never see them, not around here. I see maybe 1 ss a month at best and a few v6s, I know loosing the olds is going to hurt! But the truth is I have been driving an oldsmobile for 15 years and I am getting bored, you guys might not see them alot... but go to the olds meets and olds races every year, see the same 150 cars is getting old. I kinda want to get involed with a new car comunity, get into this new muscle car war. I will really miss my cutlass down the road... but there is a new road ahead for me, the keep up, the gas, the trailer, the tools, its alot never ending work! I am sure one day I will build another one, hell it was my 6th cutlass

! Anyone wanna buy it

I can understand that. I have a built '72 Jimmy, love it to no end, but the driving is limited, upkeep expensive, and let's face it, it's a pain in the ass sometime because it's 38 years old. You'll love the Camaro no doubt, there's nothing like a new car, even if they are more common.
