Not nearly enough info to advise what to offer.

Do whatever you think is best.

Neither car has the A8 so that won't affect your trade.

I'd keep the green one. Maybe add an aftermarket exhaust if you need more noise.

I never liked green so I'd say get the red..lol.But if all you're doing is trading for color,don't.Get a 15 or 16 because from all the rviews I've read,yes,the a8 is way better then anything before it...

Honestly, I'd keep the LRG car. It is an awesome color IMO and a catback exhaust will make it sound better than the NPP.

I favor red over green and I appreciate your interest in Mag Ride, NPP and 3LT. Even so the red car it is still a 14 model year. The 14 is already 2 years old now that the 16's are out. Chevy improves these cars every year. Keep the 14 green until you can move up to a 15 or 16. Just my 2 cents.

Not in a million years would I trade off the Limerock Green, especially for red. My LRG gets attention everywhere I go as the color is very rare. Even the chevy dealer had not seen one.

The dealer's going to tell you green will be a hard sell, so he'll need your car and several thousand dollars to make the trade.
