There's always going to be some doof on the internet that wants to hate on your car. You could own a friggin Formula 1 car and some jackass will post on a forum how it gets bad fuel economy or that you can't pick up girls in it. Rest assured though, if you encounter one of these people in person, all they're gonna say is "nice car" because they're too scared to say anything to your face.

I really don't care who likes what one way or the other, but I just had to point out...

Quote:
I'm a Chevy guy but the Camaro has been around 42 years. I've had 4 Camaros over the years. 5 years from now you'll wake up realizing you blew a wad of money.
I'm not following the negative here...42 years? So? The Corvette's been around 56 years.

And it must not be too bad a car if you bought four of them.

My thoughts are

The Camaro is just a 4 seat Corvette with more hp and cost less money

I sure hope I can get my hands on one.

What then are the major differences between the cars. Both High HP. Both slippery in the wind tunnel, excellent acceleration, stopping power, Skid pad. Handling, Gas economy. Looks.

Comparing a 68 Camaro to a 68 vette they were two different animals You can go through all of the generations and they were 2 different cars, Compare this generation to the latest vette generation and I don’t think you too far off the mark.

So probably most folks will say I am wrong, but take an honest look at them side by side comparing the features and benefits and you will understand.
