New Car...
Ok, so pretty soon, I will be in the market for a new car, Im thinking about possibly selling the Camaro, or keeping it as a side project with the TA. Not completely sure what to do with it yet. I had my eye on the new 2010 Camaro 1-SS, but its a lil too pricy and Im not likin the markups that the dealerships are doing. I test drove the new 2010 Mustang GT after my friend bought his, I liked the price, and pretty much everything else about it. I was thinking about a used Cadillac CTS-V, like 06 or 07. The most I am willing to spend is about $30,000. If you guys have any suggestions, feel free to chime in.

If you like the looks of the GT go for it...however the performance is putrid compared to other vehicles in that price range. I'd spring for a V6 Camaro or a G8 GT before even thinking of a Mustang GT...slooooooow garbage.

ya i was just using the #'s from car and driver, the gt w/ track pack was a couple hundred more than a m6 1ss....but your right mark ups are crazy, its like they are only making 1000 of them or something lol

I like the looks of the G8 GT, but i dont know the performance because the dealership I went to didnt even have one available for a test drive, so i dont even know the performance, I do like the style of the new mustang, better than the last, and it feels rock solid, it sounds great, like i said before, the clutch feels good, and it glides into gear. the used CTS-V i was looking at is 21,000 its black on black, the used dealer i went to wouldnt let me test drive for "insurance" reasons. so idk about that, the musang is honestly looking like a legit car

what you could do is buy a used g8 with <10k on the clock for like 24/25...then buy the full kooks system/tune/intake and bam 12 second dd for under 30k...but if you want a stick then disregard this post lol
