I'm pretty sure that would be grounds for banning you.

What a sick joke to play. I thought you'd gone off the deep end lol.

Wife wouldn't let you get the Boss huh? Too bad.

Everyone has an opinion but at the end of the day your opinion is the only one that matters. If you feel it's the right one then it is.

If you're a car collector and treat it as an investment then get the Boss, never drive it and sell it years down the road but I don't think you are.

As for me? I traded my '05 hard top in for my current '08 vert. So in my case there was a functional aspect to the trade in. It's also fully loaded and when I made the deal it was the same price as I paid for the '05 - just had to pay for the depreciation of three years.

I've had opportunities to trade this one in but I'm keeping it. I've got some mods in it now making it unique for me (i.e. Number 1 of 1) so I agree with your decision to keep it. Make it "yours". You can do quite a bit with thirteen grand!

No she was ok with either option, and she was pretty surprised when I said I was having second thoughts about it, but honestly what you get with the Boss isn't worth it imo. Lets face it, the manufacturers use these "Special, Limited, Numbered Edition" cars as a gimmick for those of us that lived through part of the muscle car era, or at least drove the original muscle cars, to entice us to purchase a car under the total misconception that these cars will be as collectable as the originals. Well sorry to break it to you all, but those days are over and they're never coming back. Yeah sure that Boss might be worth more in the end, but unfortunately by the time it's depreciation stage is over, I'll be long gone, so what's the benefit. Too add to that, I would hate to have a Boss 302 and get my azz handed to me by a guy with a lightly modded GT...Instead I'll be the guy with the lightly modded GT. :D

Make up your mind would yah ? lol

DublDee 04-27-2013 08:38 AM

Me Make up my mind? Never! Just kidding, I did make up my mind, and that's the final analysis I came up with. So for the next year or so I'll happily drive the GT, and then be on the lookout for '13 or newer GT500....Hopefully in GB. :P
