Won't be trading in or getting rid of my '16 for years. I have this thing pretty much the way I want it HP and suspension wise. More than happy with it.

Absolutely nothing. I didn't put a blower on it to trade it in a year.

Was gonna trade up regardless to a loaded 18 GT so it's nice they're coming out with the new trans and the mag ride. Hopefully they make the 10 spd auto compatible with a performance pack this time!

Only way would be HP increase due to Direct Injection which should have been done when they brought out the S550 in 2015.

I've got a 16GT and the lease is up Q1 2019, or as I call it - the perfect time. I'll be able to asses and compare my vehicle to what will probably be the "best" (most options/improvements) variants of the S550 (2019 and maybe 2020 models) as well as the S650, which we will likely have significant info about, if not a full reveal by that point (since it will be a 2020 or 2021 model year). I would consider a late model S550 in GHIG and/or with a glass roof. Otherwise I may buy my current car at lease end.

I'm happy with my 16 and I can't imagine a 18 would be so super awesome that Id want even higher car payments with the beating I would take on a trade in.

A check the box or boxes for 1LE fighter option/s.

Otherwise I'll keep it or get a Raptor.

I'm pretty happy with my '16. The '18 would need better looks, significantly more power and a less restrictive options sheet to garner my interest. A dealer would also have to give me a reasonable offer on trade-in.

Since I can't really see all that happening, I'll probably just stick with ol' Trigger.

Nothing. Grabber Blue is gone for 2018. And I'm happy as hell with my Grabber Blue '17 EB. :love:

But....

A 2.7EB V6, Grabber Green, a track pack, more '67-68 styling, more performance goodies, mach 1 package, heritage colors, and a blank check could sway me. :headbonk:

These threads always make me laugh..I've seen them on every forum.

Challenger world.."What would have to change in 2011 for you to get rid of your 2010?" "Nothing! I am keeping this car for life!"...6 months later they've got a brand new 2011 392 Challenger

Camaro world.."What would have to change for you to get rid of your 2010?" "I'm never getting rid of this car"...till the 1LE/refresh happened.

Give it time..about half of the "never getting rid of it" and "I'm happy with how it is" people will bail because they've fallen behind the bleeding edge or they get spanked by a 2018+ etc..

Power means jack, if the car just comes with a gt350 mani, TB and revised tune and a 10spd auto in an otherwise same looking car and same motor then I don't see the benefit of trade in. Power can be had via aftermarket, if my 6spd auto breaks in a couple years I can't see swapping in a 10spd auto being too difficult.
