Flippin' Stevie Wonder could see what a pretty car this Camaro is! It is an awesome color, has nice wheels, a cool stance, etc. To roll this over for a BMJERKOFFW is like rolling a Corvette over for a Chevette! :evil:

Careful with used 3-series BMW's... I've heard that they have cooling system issues.

alamantia 08-03-2007 01:36 PM

I hear all BMW's have issues.

Sell that camaro and you WILL regret it one day

ok i know i really don't want to sell the car but its my daily and that's what i bought it for not to be a project i already have too many of those, but due to my job i drive a lot and far for the last 7 months i have driven to VA and back at least 3 times a month and it cost way to much in gas to do that with this car. I'm not going to keep this car buy a beater cause then it would become a project and i don't want that from this car i already have to many better project cars then to keep putting money and time into a 94 camaro. but it is going to be very hard for me to get rid of it especially with a picture of it on my computer background that i look at every day.

Justin,

You may have already addressed this yourself, but if you are selling the Camaro for economical reasons (gas prices) and are replacing it with a older BMW to save money you may end up spending more in the long run. Maintaining or repairing a BMW is certainly not a problem but will be more expensive than reparing an American or Japanese car. That BMW looks like it's in good cosmetic shape but it may be at the age/mileage where you will be replacing/repairing more than just the standard things like plugs, wires, and brakes.

Just something to keep in mind. Good luck with the sale.

I'm not anti-bimmer or against you selling, but there is truth to that.

GrandmasterCow 08-04-2007 10:44 AM

good luck sellin bro. seen the car and you in your work parking lot, car sounds nice and looks nicer in person than pictures

jims69camaro 08-05-2007 08:01 AM

that tears it, then. you can't sell it. get a low-cost, low-maintenance vehicle that gets good gas-mileage for your daily driver. if no other thought comes to mind, buy a car cover and park that beauty. in two or three years you will come around, and if you still have it, you'll be glad you didn't sell it. if, however, you do sell it, i am telling you, you will regret it.

no one is saying it has to become another "project" car. to me, it looks good as it sits. so don't change it. protect it, tuck it away and drive something else for the time being.

Z28Justin 08-05-2007 11:38 PM

first thank you for all the compliments on my car, so you guys and all of my friends have convinced me to keep the car, actually now that i have been thinking about selling the car iv been getting complement a lot in public i know i always have but it seems like more then normal lately but its probably just because now I'm thinking about them instead of just being use to it. and i guess if you guys think it looks good the way it sits then I'm gonna try to lay off putting money into it and work on my projects.


and matt you better put you car back on the road so we can all start rolling around deep again.

CJDZ24_Z28 08-07-2007 05:57 PM

Glad you are keeping it. Your Z is a very nice LT1. I have my 01 SS (65,000) that i only drive on the weekends(sometimes only 1 day) and I daily drive my 98 Trans Am. It has 140,000 hard miles on it and i wouldn't even think to replace it yet.Still get around 24mpg on the Highway IMHO F-Body's are good daily drivers
