Well the Camaro has gone................

Despite having almost every problem most owners will ever encounter and having fixed all the problems to the point where I consider it fixed, it was time to trade it in.
Despite all its faults it drove well, quick enough as it was and everyone loved the look of it.

So with that strange feeling you get when you think "should I keep it, have I done the right thing" ringing in my ears I bought this;

Avatar and profile blurb are confusing. Did you used to have a Gen 5 and traded in for a 2016 (Gen6)? Cause pictured in the post is a Gen 5.5...

Yep, it’s a 2014 or 2015. Definitely not a 2016...

My original was a 2010 [in my avatar] and this is indeed a 5.5, however it was first registered in 2016.

'Upgrade' is subjective.

Well you have the year correct, now you just need to fix the "Camoro" part. lol Nice looking car though, congrats! (and it most certainly IS an upgrade, 14-15 refresh FTW!)

I was referring the the 6th generation not necessarily being an upgrade.
