After almost 3 years I'm back.
I purchased my 2014 GT new with Track Package and Recaro's a little over three years ago.
Haven't done much with my car other than some minor mods, occasional fair weather drives, and 99.9% of it's life spent as a garage queen.
A couple of weeks ago I got the bug to get a new car and was ready to trade my 3 year old 14,000 mile young GT for a Camaro ZL1.
I was getting everything in place for the deal until I woke up the morning before making the commitment and it hit me.
I really like my GT, except for bald tires it is almost new, it will never outperform a ZL1 however for the way I use my GT and would use a ZL1 the only thing I really wanted was more horsepower and torque.
Problem solved!
I purchased a Roush Stage 2 supercharger kit and spent about 15 hours installing it. (Really rewarding).
With traction and stability control both off I have managed to finish off my tires with less than one tank of fuel.
What a Blast!

Congrats! I think you will be glad you decided to stay in the family. I may have to follow your lead some day, but for now I will stay N/A...

Kidding aside, I really like the OE Track Pack/Brembo wheels.
Thanks!
I should have done this 3 years ago.
