What is your opinion???

I am pondering a thought about getting rid of my 2006 SS/NA for a 2006 SS/SC. Mine has 11,000 miles on it and is victory red, fully loaded except for onstar and xm radio. The SS/SC is silver and has 25,000 on it. It is fully loaded with the G85 package as well. What would you guys do? If I do trade mine in on it, my payments will drop a little bit actually. Just not sure which way to go. Should I keep mine or trade for the other??

What would insurance be?


Honestly, if I was in your situation and my payments would drop I would consider it.

yah if your payments are going to drop I would go for the ss/sc. Check your insurance though just incase that goes up a lot.

Keep yours. You know what you have now... Ride it out and make a decision later when you actually NEED another car. You have a nice car now!

Mine isn't a daily driver and if I did do the trade-in. That one wouldn't be a daily driver either.

exactly. if it aint broke, dont fix it. that saying doesnt exactly apply word for word in this situation but u get what im saying. you have a car with low miles and you know exactly what has been done to it and how it runs.

That was also a thought I had of doing. I was thinking about just putting a supercharger from an SS/SC on mine.

The 11,000 miles that are on mine, are all miles that I put on. It had 0 miles on it when I test drove it at the dealer. So I know exactly how all 11,000 were put on.

exactly. if its not ur DD, it gives u even more reason to mod it and make it something mroe original than a tweaked ss/sc.
