Obviously, posting on a Camaro forum most members are going to say Camaro without giving it a second thought. I'm a lover of all good cars, regardless of manufacturer, and I believe different cars are better suited for different situations. Which one you should get depends on a number of conditions:

What is the primary purpose of this car (pure transportation, cruising, enthusiastic driving on winding roads, drag racing, autocross, road course racing, car shows, etc)?
What is your budget?
What will your gas consumption look like?
How do you prefer your maintenance (dealer, DIY, or independent shop)?
How much room do you have to park?
Does style matter (for example, do you have stuffy clients who would be more impressed with a more sophisticated car?)
Does the door count matter?
What weather will you drive in?
What do the dealers look like in your area?

These are great questions!
i shall answer.

1.primarily back and fourth to school. and the occasional fun twisty backroad.
2.about 20K to 32K
3.school is only about 5 miles from my house. but i drive a turbo truck so it eats gas anyways. haha.
4.DIY (its a hobby)
5.lots
6.style matters alot. this is where the camaro just takes my breath away. and you know I have to attract the ladies. haha
7. door count doesnt matter.
8.sun and rain. thats it
9.fairly small. nice people though

Oh and i know about mitsu not having many dealers. I had to order parts from some dealer in Ohio lol

thanks for your input everyone!
