Looks nice, congrats. Now you can add another car to your signature, but this time with a smiley.

 

wow, how much money do you guys have?

ill probably be cruising in my 95 3.4l well past 2009.

unless i manage to save up a bundle.

 

No money I spend it all on car's! The TB SS is a Great ride! Our's is Black and AWD.

 

A certain GTO is holding me over til 09



The TBSS is nice and all... especially if you must have four doors. But it's no match for the new GTO, in road handling or at the track. I'm sorry, I'm just not a truck person. The TBSS is too easy to mistake for just another 6-cylinder SUV. And I think if I had to get something with a V8 and four doors, it would be a Grand Prix GXP anyway.

 

I can vouch for Geno's choice of car dealer Andy Wolf is a great guy...I met him in BG last year, and talked with him again at the Camaro unveiling. I have his business card here, and around the time they start allocating Camaros, he'll be getting a call for sure!! By the time I get back from Indy, the car will be broken in at least...

 

I have my GTO

 

Why would you even make the comparison? The TBSS and the GTO have basically nothing in common except the engine under the hood.

For a car that weighs approx 800 pounds less, I would hope to hell that the GTO would out perform it.

For what the TBSS is though, it is much more tuned for performance than most people give it credit for.

 

Exactly how much faster is an LS1 auto Goat versus an LS2 TB SS 2wd?

 

I know it's not a TBSS, it's not really a performance vehicle for that matter but I just picked up a 2007 Silverado Z71 Crew Cab. I will probably pick up a new Camaro in 2010. That's the plan any way.

 

I agree the TBSS is well-tuned for performance, given its inherent limitations. And for those needing 4 doors, it's a fine compromise. But I made the comparison with my GTO for a specific reason - The thread starter asked a specific question. What to do until 09? So for the same reason you are confused about me comparing the GTO and the TBSS... I'm frankly a little confused how anyone thinks the TBSS is a suitable substitute for the upcoming Camaro. In my opinion, the LS2 GTO is the closest thing available today... and it's perfectly appropriate therefore, to draw the distinction between the TBSS and the GTO. JM02

 

I have no idea. My GTO has an LS2, not an LS1, and it's about.... 800 lb faster than the TBSS

 

I did the same thing got mine in Black 2wd 2007 with the new 100k warranty. It will serve as our family cruiser when the pups come. It fast as hell. Im actually starting to see them around quite a bit more lately it seems we arent the only ones who think this way. I love mine

 

I still haven't seen that many in Milwaukee. As far as it goes, if you have a TBSS in the winter that are the cat's meow. Crazy get up and go, not to mention great traction. Serious fun all year 'round!
