Default Goodbye for now.

I hated to do it but I needed more space and a back seat. I traded the 12' GS for a 15' Chevy SS since I still wanted some performance. I really like the Impala LTZ but front wheel drive was the deal breaker that led me to the SS. Thanks for a great board and perhaps some day I will return.

Safe driving,
Drew

You'll be fine. I just did the reverse and went from needing a backseat to not lol.

Like has been previously stated plenty of corvettes for you to look at down the road. Enjoy life. 16yrs from now you'll be able to grab a 2015 z06 really cheap lol.

Pics!!
I like the SS...you probably got a good deal because I think they are going to stop making them. Everyone is too focused on the less reliable euro cars that cost more for less....

I parted with the 2004 seven years ago. It took awhile but I'm back. You will be back too when you get the chance.
