will you trade or sell your current f-body for the new one?
just wondering. not everyone has the financial means to have two running cars for themselves, so if you have decided on a new camaro will you be trading your current f-body in, selling it by private sale or keeping it?

I've actually contemplated selling mine as a basket-case package deal and buying a late Z/28 or SS, so I dunno. I figure I'll keep it at least for the near future.

Definitely keeping my car. I was hell bent on getting a new Camaro, but now I'm leaning toward giving up the beater and getting a GMT900.

I thought about it... but a WS6 is way too nice looking. Nothing else looks like em, and I'm in love with t-tops.

If I were to get a new Camaro I'd sell the Cobalt. I have no plans of parting with my Firehawk.

not that I can afford one right now, but I couldn't sell my cars. Too much money into them that I'll never see back.

I'm not to fond of the camaro, I mean its nice, but its not something I feel like ill need to have. Hopefully I will have a 4th gen, DD and then when I'm out of college and working I could get a used and decent ls7 z06 and then maybe I could afford a new camaro to DD.

I'm keeping my '72. I don't care if someone offered me 2 new Z/28s however I want them optioned! I grew up in that car and was probably concieved in that car(although I try not to think about it),I wouldn't give up my car even for a new ZR1. I would like to have a new Camaro,but I'll work overtime to get it not give up a part of me.

I'd get rid of my 3rd gen for the new Camaro. However I'd probably end up with something else as a DD first.

My TA is not going anywhere unless something bad happens to it. Honestly, I have too many memories, time and money into the car to go with something bone stock. Granted you can always make more memories but I love my car even though I want to throw it off a bridge sometimes. I most likely will not be picking up a new Camaro but more likely a G8 GT. If things are going real well, I'll go for a new vette but thats a dream that will come when the time is right.

The Camaro will always be second to the Corvette. And now that the Camaro will be heavier and with IRS, it really will be a poor man's Corvette! Make mine a G8 Coupe or an LS3 C6, but not an f-body.

as do i. i'm looking for a nice '77 or '78 bird.
if it was a camaro, it'd be an '81 Z.
then i have to bite the bullet, because i want an '02 35th anniversary SS Z28. not going to find one of those for very cheap.
then i need a 5 car garage and i'm all set...
