I sold my Z-28. Of course since it was a 6-speed, it wasn't a "clunker". So I end up practically giving it away.
Although I had not been planning to get a new Camaro, I had a few grand in my pocket and a buddy who always wanted my Rubicon. I plant the seed with the wife. To my disbelief, the reaction is neutral. She reminds me of the "ground rules". She has to be able to drive it.
1. Auto only. She drives a stick well, but has moved past that part of her life. No problem, the Z and the Rubicon are sticks. I could go auto.
2. Navigation. There lies the problem. A 2010, $40k+ sports car and modern electronics is not an option. Her POS 2006 Civic has an awesome nav system.
Bye GM, the rest of the world is leaving you behind.
