either way at the price point of either the Z28 or the GT500.........i would MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH rather have a corvette.
im not quite sure why everyone seems to snap at you and your posts. hopefully it doesnt deter you away from our community

I agree about the Pony cars or Vette scenario. I won't lie.. every day I struggle with the idea of should I buy a Camaro as a DD as my G6 is approaching 102K and looking more and more "girly" to me. I'm trying to justify in my head that having a car as slick as the Camaro... even in V6 form is ok for a car I would use primarily to get to work and deal with clients. The idea was always to have something humble. (think doctors driving Buicks instead of Cadillacs) I am also considering the Lacrosse, Regal and Malibu. The Malibu is the biggest competitor to the Camaro decision since the Lacrosse is... too "classy" and the Regal is not here yet.
As for the Z28's Price... I'm willing to bet that it will come in under the GT500's by at least $5K. Ford does not have a Corvette, thus they have a lil more leeway in charging more for a pony car, where as Chevy would have to push the price of the base Vette up over $50K. Currently it sits at $48,930 - $116,880. The GT500 comes in at $48,645 - $53,645, starting $300 less than a VETTE.
Certainly I am an advocate for Corvette's being in Porsche territory, perhaps with a $3K less difference for spit and giggles (with a new interior of course) as it is certainly, in every way now a car

that performs and holds as much cache as the German sports car.
As for the reason why people have issues with my posts... Well U are a rarity.. as the majority of problems I have been getting are from Mustang owners.
