Another cancelled order...for an upgrade - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

L. James · 11-24-2008, 03:51 PM

In bad news, with the problems with GM and bigger issues with my dealer I was forced to cancel my Camaro order. However on Saturday, I took this home: a 2007 Chevrolet Corvette with 10k miles on it for a screaming deal. I'll miss the Camaro, but I must say I am VERY happy with the purchase!

very nice man. . . I am considering a vette now too, but i love the Look of the Camaro.

rolnslo · 11-24-2008, 03:54 PM

Nice! Have to ask...more or less than the 2SS MSRP?

L. James · 11-24-2008, 03:57 PM

This Vette has the LT3 package and the Z51 performance package, both tops, the chrome wheels, etc. And I still saved several thousand over the price of my 2SS I had ordered. How could I resist?

I just got a email from my dealership stating they are giving away 47" LCD's if you buy a car off the lot.

And now, a post from far left field....

franknbeans · 11-24-2008, 04:25 PM

the post was an addition to my first post. . . about buying a car off the lot instead of waiting for the Camaro. .

Might be in left field but it still has a point in the thread.

Nice vette, was never a big fan of yellow though, i saw a yellow ZR1 yesterday, and I thought it looked good, but its' not cgm or black.

Legend · 11-24-2008, 04:34 PM

Congrats on the Vette!! Enjoy!!

If I could snag a 2008 or so for a "few thousand" less, I'd consider it myself!

Maybe...

jesserayjames · 11-24-2008, 04:38 PM

Nice Corvette, I have thought along those lines as well. I am trying to be patient.

*The_Blur* · 11-24-2008, 04:42 PM

I've been struggling recently with the same decision. The market is terrible, and my car might not last long enough for me to save for my Camaro SS, so my alternative is buying a used C5 Corvette. They're sexy, and the aftermarket is strong for cars built for such performance.

I'm really struggling here with this decision.

Obviously, I'd still be on this site, saving up for my 6th generation Camaro.
