  • Name Change, New Car!

    hey C5G. my former screen name was "cpdss." thanks to toasty for the name change. here is a link to a vid of my old car that showstopper (Pete) created:
    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8OBJ7n0KtU[/ame]

    Anyway, I sold my 2010 2SS/RS(G6X3 Cam, Headers, Custom stripes etc etc...) in early 2013 and was really having sellers remorse to the extent that I contacted the guy who bought the car and told him I would buy it back if he was ever interested. Needless to say he loves it as much as i did/do and said no to me buying it back. I have since been searching for another camaro, both used and new.

    I really liked a 2014 1LE/1SS I found with the recaro seats. The seats are amazing! however, still more than I wanted to spend.

    In the end I did a 500 mile search from Chicago and located my new 1LE on a dealer lot(Dugan Chevy) in Avon, Indiana. It is a 2013 1LE/1SS Rally Yellow. The only option it has is the 1LE package (no NPP, No Navi, No Sunroof, No RS, No Boston Acoustics). All in all a very low optioned car which is actually what I wanted in the first place. There was another Rally Yellow in Indianapolis also Rally Yellow with NPP but the dealer would not budge much on price. I ended up getting this one way under MSRP and feel that I got a pretty good deal. Unfortunately, after putting about 15k in my 2010, this will have to stay near stock for at least a year. It turns out Dugan Chevy got 3
    1LE's following CF4, a red, a silver and a yellow. The red and silver had sold and the yellow remained.

    well here is the car(took the pic at the dealer today when I drove down and picked it up, not the best pic but you get the idea):

        Welcome back, btw I knew it was only a matter of time........& $. Lol
        Love the car but I am surprised at the color. And only a true Camaro enthusiast would buy your car when there's snow/ice on the ground.

                Thanks Della. I told you I would be back eventually. Color wise, I was looking for white, yellow, red(victory or maroon) or orange. I considered a silver but after test driving a used one up in Neenah WI it seemed like it had been driven hard and had 20k miles on it.
                I could only find a few leftover 13's on dealer lots. This one was the best deal.

                Josh
                Oh and I drove like a grampa back to chicago.

                        thanks buddy. it's not my old car but i am excited.

                        can't wait to see that car of yours in the spring.....i wish CF5 was closer this year. i'm going to drive the hell out of this car but south Texas is a little far.

                        as far as mods go, i dug myself a hole with the wifey on the last one. it was like pulling teeth to get this car. i tried to buy x3speed's red 1LE but she wouldn't say yes at the time. i will probably do a catch can in the spring or over the winter and maybe a CAI. down the road maybe a Borla axleback. other than that i want to keep my warranty(i.e. no CAM or headers this time). i would love to get pete's hood in flat black paint or vinyl but the funds are low after buying the car. we will see what the future holds.

                          Welcome back home! I certainly understand having an empty feeling in your gut after getting rid of your original Camaro. I am sure I would feel the same. Congrats, and have fun with that one!
