Default Hi future camaro owner with a few questions

Hi my name is joe I currently own a 1979 pontiac grand prix...its an awesome cruiser/ show car, but I've been a camaro lover since i could talk and I've always wanted a black z28...I was currently offered 5 grand for my grand prix and im in a bet of a of situation. I fell in love with my car and i'd hate to part with it, but I want a camaro soooooo bad...Im wondering if i should just sell my grand prix and buy a camaro or should i wait for a better offer?

o more info about my car 111,002 miles, completely rust free, original paint, 301 v8...sucks, but has a ton of room in the engine bay for a solid 383 or 350. has 1969 Pontiac gto rims on it that are like brand new. It gets tons of looks and I have put it in car shows and people love it. The car has no problems and rides like a dream and suspension is still very tight.

If u want i can post pics of it im new so im not sure how to yet but ill fiqure it out. I just need more opinion on what i should do

I'm interested in buying a 4th gen around the years 1994-1997 z28 ttops preferably and i can deal with a manual I'd rather have an automatic transmission because I haven't driving a manual in four years and the manual i did drive my dads 1990 chevy 150 silverado never had that much torque or horsepower, and I dont want to blow through clutchs.

Hi everyone, my name is Dan. I have been a long time Camaro owner. My first car was a '68 Camaro, with a 327 and auto trans. After it was plagued with constant vapor lock problems and breaking rocker arms due to a bad camshaft, I traded that in on a new '73 Camaro Type LT with the Rally Sport package. It was a 350 4-bbl with auto trans. That was a great car until it was stolen while parked in front of my parents home. What a bummer! My next Camaro wasn't until I bought a '96 Camaro RS. That was another great Camaro and I kept that until 2003 and nearly 100K miles! Actually, I think it was closer to 85K. Don't really remember. Do not currently own any Camaros right now, but I still have my original Corvette. Well, back to work!

Later,

Idk much about you car, but I do know that the new cars are not made quite like the old cars...
I can take my 1969 camaro (327 4bm 4bbl) out for a drive and beat a whole tank a gas out through its ***** and it'll take it no prob.
Then I take my 1996 Firebird out and push it a little bit cuz im late for school...
I'll regret sleeping in 10 minutes for weeks after. point being...
it don't take sh** from nobody. taught it well huh?

But anyway... just take that into consideration.
new cars have computers and sensors that are a HUGE pain,
although they do help a lot, they totally loose the kiss factor.
