Welcome back...

I've kind of got the same dilemma. I have a 2SS, but found locally a HBM '18 ZL1 that I can't seem to stop looking at. I haven't pulled the trigger and not sure I will, but it's very tempting.

Do it You sure know the price delta between 2SS and ZL1, it won't shrink substantially no matter what you do these days.

I have my eye on a ZL1 not above sticker. So they are out there.

Not sure of the op is still looking but ill throw this out there...
We picked up a used 2016 m3 in May of 2020 for a little under $40k with 38k miles Wife was pregnant and the m6 civic si wasn't up to par for her. Car is fun and quick, rides great and the dct is pretty cool. 4 doors with decent room and a good size trunk as well. Not charger big, but big enough especially with only 1 child so far. Something different to look at, doesn't have the v8 sound but the twin turbos spooling and throaty sound is alright. Only downside so far is everyone and their mother wants to race you.

If anything happened to my Camaro I would consider a Charger 2 door and a 6 speed manual if they made them. Since they don't I would also look at the Challenger. I just hope nothing happens to my camaro.

I currently have a TRX on order. How long will I keep it? Time will tell. I think it may be fun for a bit, but I'll likely get back into a car in the relatively near future.

Yeah, the M cars have been on my list for quite some time. I don't think that I would want to own one without the factory warranty, or at least CPO'd. I was saddened when I learned the M cars were dropping their V8's.

I missed having my Camaro off and on, then getting a Raptor I don't miss it even a little anymore. I figure it'll be the same with the TRX, they're sweet. Only Ram I'd own.

The nice thing about getting a Mope is you can lease it out for rap videos.

And I could drag race the TRX against cars like you in between. It'll be a little embarrassing to be beat by a pickup.

Don't think the TRX is going to bother his ZLE. Still a nice truck though.
