Getting another SS/SC

Hey guys. I did some talking to my local dealership, I'm gonna trade me ss/sc in for another one. My ss now has 20000 miles on it and they are giving me my payoff on my loan, and im getting another 05 with the g85 package...i figured it was a good deal, pretty much drove my car for free. plus im getting the 1750 rebate...yes!

Life is too short to buy the same car twice. IMO: The more, the better : D

If given the chance to trade in your car for one with dealership miles for free... why wouldn't you?

for me it's the whole refiancing problem... how long have you had the car... no matter how long you've had it, you are losing all the payments you spent on that one, and having to start over for another 4-6 years with another car...

when i first ordered my ss a long time ago (when they first annouced the cobaltss/sc) my salesman and myself were both unaware that the g85 package would be avail......6months later after ordering it they came out with the g85.....so might as well only live once

I traded my non G-85 for a G-85 after I had the first one for only 3 months. It cost me, but I'm glad I did it. I was in the same boat - I ordered Oct. 2004, then couldn't change my order when they announced the G-85.

I'm tossing around the idea of putting some money aside, then looking into a 2.4 SS next year. I'd been thinking about it, and saw a black one on the road today... :drool:

We'll see what happens...
