I find fault in your logic. First off, while not priced as a supercar, an SS is still not all that affordable to the average guy or gal. And, if you want to keep it nice, many have one as a "fun" car, not as a daily driver. Some of us have children to raise, so we put it off for a while. We were not "doing anything wrong" with our life. As mature adults, many of us realize where priorities lie first. So now that I have one, yes I am glad and grateful and proud. I keep it like new and enjoy every it time I'm in it.

Priorities aside, he's not totally wrong. A low mileage SS can be had for 20-25k, that puts it cheaper than a new Malibu and cheaper than the top of the line Cruze.

Yes all I do is look at pictures of my car thinking I can't believe I got this for free how I can't believe my mom went out looking for the best one

I wouldn't say lucky... Its a mass produced, economy priced car.

Nice, but nothing special

Wow. It only costs 1/2 again as much as a Sentra but you think it is economy priced? What are you smoking?
And that doesn't even count the maintence or insurance.

Yes, this car is economy priced. There is no smoking, its simply priced that the average person can buy it. And I think what you meant is that it is double the price of a Sentra, but a top of the line Sentra is like $27k, so not much cheaper.

Chevy is an economy brand, don't try to make it something it isn't.

As for Maintenance, it is hilariously low compared to our other cars and my Camaro insurance is cheap even with $0 deductibles.

The base Camaro costs $26K. Top of the line is $60,000.
And $85US for a LOF is not cheap.

Your point about $26k? All I'm saying is a Sentra can cost as much as a Camaro, and the $26k Camaros are much more common occurances than the $60k Camaros.

And keep in mind, $60k isn't that much either when it comes to economy built cars...the average joe's truck is $50-70k. Heck, you can't get an F250 diesel worth having for under $65k anymore.

And $85 for service is pretty cheap. That's 1 hour of labor. You're paying 1 hour just for pulling into the garage.
