$15,500 cash for Camaro SS (lol, automatic)
Seems like a good deal....almost TOO GOOD
Carfax is clean but it's been auctioned around the country half a dozen times
Should I go for it /o/ ?
Not racing; it would be a DD
I assume 100K+ and a 2010?
I'd wait for an LS3 with less miles and just pay a little extra.
My car has been really reliable

>I assume 100K+ and a 2010?
Yes. About 115k mi; 2010
L99 obviously outputs less than LS3, but what's the difference other than active fuel management?
Does active fuel management actually work well on these? I do 90% highway driving for my daily commute.

Never buy a muscle car with high miles. Its a timebomb

It would be if it weren't for the fact that a civic would make you go faster + you would have the ability to turn without hitting guard rails

Really? I bought an old Trans Am with 210,000 miles for $1150. I drove it for three years and sold it for $1500.... never had to do any work to the engine or transmission, just swapped some spar plugs and the power steering pump
hmm

...but anon, the sound of the camaro exhaust is 10x as cool. :>
>>15287979
i can tell youve never owned one
>>15285868
Why would you do that? You could put half that down and finance a newer better one.
>>15288555
Myself - and really the past three generations of my family - don't finance vehicles. Yes, yes, I have fine finances but I don't like the idea of having to pay every month on a vehicle.
I buy cars with cash
why does /o/ jerk off to I4 so much?
Why is I4 so popular now?
V8 is neat

Its all they know how to work on

>>15289552
cheap to mod cheap to repair, can make as much power as you need with a light car for fun in the twisties. I6 and V6 too.
v8 is not needed for most of the kind of driving people do here.

>saving money makes you an idiot
hmm
>>15289573
Because /o/ takes fastestlaps.com as a car buying guide
Only seems like a bad idea OP because it's been auctioned around like a slut....just save for a few more months and get a nicer one. Not like they didn't make a ton of them.

higher displacement has major advantage on a track, so no not really.
a canyon/mountain/twisty road is nothing like a track. you need a lot of horsepower to have fun on a track, but you don't need hardly any to have fun on a road.
Look at KBB and completed WON auctions on ebay to gauge price. I don't think they have good resale value. Transformers is no longer cool, everyone knows you can't see out of them, they've improved a ton chassis and engine wise in the past 6 years. Mustangs and Challengers of the same year go for about $20k tops.
>>15288001
he said its going to be a DD
not a racing car
he clearly has no interest in tracking the car, so why would you try and benchrace and compare a civic?
i say go for it
>>15288001
>you would have the ability to turn without hitting guard rails
That's the worst argument you could have possibly used for a FWD car

AFM is pretty much the only difference. There's kits to convert it to an LS3 for around $1200 installed. Purpose of the conversion is to allow for non AFM cams. That mileage and tendency to be auctioned often tells me it was a rental and should be avoided. 100k isn't that bad for these cars but they're new enough to where finding a low mileage shouldn't be hard at all. A friend of mine is looking into an 2010 SS with 20k miles in pristine condition selling for something like $20k.
Dealer quit replying to me and it's been taken off the site, so I think it's been sold to someone else.
Oh well. I have been looking for a car for over two years now, I can afford to look for another two if I have to do so...
