haha yeah it does. Its like going around screaming all the time, and then your excuse is, "YOU CAN STILL UNDERSTAND ME!" And I have to agree with you, at some times, caps are appropriate to use, like at work. Just doesnt seem right in a forum, but hey, what can I do?

the new monte carlos are a waste of money, dont get me wrong i am Chevy till i die but they continue to disapoint me with the new monte's, they went to hell after the mid 80's SS's and have never looked back.
The Impala is a worthwhile investment. Im still not against purchasing a good condition Camaro either, ive looked into it a few times myself.

Re: significant upgrade from Cavalier?
I don't think I could part with the money for a new GM Barring possibly Solstice GXP but apart from that I would feel I made a grave mistake. the Quality jyust isn't there.
here is another possibilty for $15k. Porsche Boxster

Re: significant upgrade from Cavalier?
A boxter would be SICK to get, but it would be killer on insurance and repairs.

Re: significant upgrade from Cavalier?
probably wouldn't be any different than an s2000. an s2000 is seen more of a "tuner" car as opposed to a Boxster which is for looking good

you could say the same about and S2000. Seing as you ca buy a Boxster for $15k they don't shout "richboy" that much!
