Thank you for your help,
Are you the type of guy that likes to have the nicest toy on the block?
Not necessarily the nicest, but I like to get all of performance upgrades if possible and I think the Boss 302 adds a good package for the price.
Is it worth the extra cabbage to you? Yes
Do you plan on taking advantage of the additional power, handling prowess, ect that the Boss offers over the standard GT? Yes, I want to take a driving class specifically for sports/muscle cars.
Will you be moving to an area with competent dealerships nearby that will be able to service or repair such a vehicle in the event something does need to be done? I am still not sure where my new job will take me yet.
Do you plan on modifying it and if so are you not bothered with the thought depreciating its value by turning it into a daily driver? No, I want to buy a nice car for driving. I would buy a car in need of repair if I planned to modify.
Are you going to be able to hold your marbles when you see it with a door ding or worse yet, vandalized in the local Wal-Mart parking lot? No, however, I would lose my marbles if any new car I get is damaged in a parking lot. It really irritates me when it happens. It is one of the few advantages of my current car which a couple of dings will not longer effects its value.
