Did I make the right choice?

Hey, I'm wondering if I made a mistake...I just bought a 2000 Camaro SS Red, 26,600 miles. Seems to be in great shape. I even raced my stepdad in his '81 Corvette...beat him, but only because he stalled it. Anyway, the car's got allt he options but leather. New Kumho tires. body is excellent except a few little key scrathces. After my trade for my auction special Blazer it was $15995...Let me know if I did well.

The Blazer was given to me by my parents 3 months ago. I think they payed $2000 for it at auction. The dealer gave me $3000 for it. So the car was 18995 - 3000 trade = $15995

I would say that is a great deal... I though 21K was a great deal for a 02 Z28 A4 w/ 9,942 but sheesh getting the car for 16K after trade in, is damn good for a 2000 SS...

I really appreciate the input ya'll are giving me, I was kinda having second thoughts... I think it was because I felt bad for beatin my stepdad in his vette. In case anyone wants to see pictures you can go to http://photos.yahoo.com/kissme_boo

Thanks again!!!
