i found a very few sts-v cars, but they still in the 32-37k range(05/06)
i could rock a v6 sts IF i did a v series body "conversion" lol( big mod, so thats bad )
And, im saying dealer all this time because most likely i wont be able to sell my SKY privately and id trade it in. its trade in value is right around 23k. so i could drop a few extra grand so basically i wont be upside down on my loan, id get a car i could use more, (translates as: something new and shiny to distract me for a year or so) lol, and keep my payments the same for the same length of time.
i breifly thought about a lease but dont know how good they are. For a person like me who wants a diff car every year, it may be good... i dunno, opinions? i wouldnt mind trading in the sky to dump it, and picking up a 3 year lease... IF payments are reasonable.
problem with a v6 CTS(03-07) would be that id want to eventually do a v8 swap... (<<<< for the price, you're better off just spending an extra couple thousand and getting a V from the get-go)
the sky was gonna get an LSx motor when i paid it off.... i cant avoid large mods. haha
anyways, find me an '05 cts-v, at a dealer, in sept, used certified, under 50kmiles, for 25k and ill buy it... 'nuff said
otherwise ill look at STS's and CTS's. (only reason in my mind for a cts would be because i could get a 05-06 cheaper than a same year STS to save some money... i wouldnt be concerned with DI, sorry Al.)
