OK the RS V6 is gone
Am I a nice guy or am I a nice guy - traded my daily driver to my neighbor. They had bought a 2012 Buick Regal GS last year loaded out with Turbo and 6 Speed Manual. He owned it for over a year and drove it one time. So he comes over today and starts talking about how he wished he had a Camaro like the black one you have there. I told him he could own it for the right price. He then offers up his Regal with 184 miles (my Camaro a 2013 had 23K and change) and says hey since it is a standard I will through in paying the transfer fees and yada yada. So I ask him if he was sure and he said yes and I told him the Camaro needed tires - on my list for today as a matter of fact and he said he would take care of that. So I am now the owner of a white tri coat Regal GS Turbo. Nice car and bonus it gets better gas mileage than my Camaro according to the window sticker lol. We will see. Dealer got everything transferred over for us. So to celebrate I waxed the SS tonight to show it still had a place in the garage.

Nice trade, two automotive extremes for sure. Never knew a Regal could be had with a stick. Pics when you have them.

Nice choice. It'll be a change for sure but Regal is a much more refined and premium product. I think you'll be pretty happy with it.

Looks good. The 2012s had some minute changes from the 2011 models but they made a pretty big difference.

I took it for a drive today before I traded and all I can say is the car will be a nice daily for me and the bonus is I am getting a little more fuel mileage and have a slight sleeper here.

I really like the regal and i think it has a very sporty look yet still retains some class. Up the boost add a cold air and some high flow cats and it will really wake it up without getting crazy.
