My advice is treat the deal as two separate transactions. Are you getting a good deal buying the 500? Next question, are you getting a fair trade for your current vehicle?

If the answer is no to either question, then pass.

Dealers really like to throw the package deal in your face. They make it look like they are giving you a good deal on the sale, but wind up raping you on the trade.

Sell the trade on the open market, take the cash to the dealer. They kill you on the trade, frankly they have to make money some where and it is usually in the trade. Rarely will a person see their trade on the lot they wholesale the trade move to the next deal. I consigned my GT350 at the dealer he made a couple grand and I got what I needed without taking it the shorts with a trade.

I was thinking the same. Only thing the trade does save me is the reduced taxes.

I live in Oregon no sales tax yet !!!! But they would love to have some sort of transitional tax. When they runout of their own money they take ours. What they don’t realize is it’s all our money.

Its a big purchase, If its not the EXACT car you want, pass. you will regret it. But everything about the car is phenominal, the owners have told you this, the reviewers have told you this-- even the diehard GM and dodge one.. That should tell you something

One lesson I've learned in life is get what you want. Settling for the wrong color for you and you'll always wish you had something else.

And for the record, the rapid red with black stripes is the right color. Couldn’t resist!

Thanks for the input everyone. At the end of the day I went with the White and Kona Blue.
I thought about when I was originally looking at buying the GT350 and I couldn't find a white one with Blue stripes like the original I wouldn't settle for less. I can change the color of the stripes easier than the paint. :)

Oh yea this is one bad ass car, it was raining all the way home and can't wait to put some miles on this beast. I did reach for the clutch and gear shifter a few times driving in traffic. LOL

That's what I have so I have to agree.
