Last Day with the Camaro - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

Well today is the last day that I have the Camaro, I have to turn it into the dealership tonight on trade-in. I've really got mixed feelings about it I bought the car new and had plans to keep it for a very long time to come. Unfortunately after the curb incident in Tucson, the car will not hold an alignment. It's starting to show wear from being a daily driver and with my longer commute my suspension is starting to wear on me. The worst part is that I did the deal on Sunday morning and have been waiting for the check to come in from the credit union. So I've had a few extra days with the Camaro before I get the new car to second guess the decision.

All that couple with the fact that my daughter is now in a convertible child seat which is really a PITA to try and load her in the back seat have convinced me that I'm now old, semi-responsible, married with children, and probably need to start thinking about a sedan. So I'm picking up an Infiniti G35 sedan tonight. At least it is the 6 speed so I can pretend that it's something other than a 4 door yuppie grocery getter.

This board has been a great source of information and helped with with both my car and my driving. Sadly there's nothing even close to the level of expertise found on this board for the Infiniti.
