I think I'd take a new Gran Sport for 1/2 the price. You get Z06 body work, z06 brakes, still get your removable top and if you get the manual, the LS3 is blueprinted, balanced, and underrated from the factory. 12.2@117 is pretty nice and throw a turbo kit on there.............. This is actually the first Vette I can say I'd buy in a Long, long time.

For whatever reason I'd go out of my way to avoid the Gran Sport. I'm not sure why I dislike it so much.... I think its the stripes.

I like both of them. I followed a all blacked out SR-T home from work today. It looked sick.

WOW, there is as much bashing here as over there, seems soon as we buy a popular brand we all get tight assed over it. It's great to see all these muscle cars out there, good for the north american market. There is no doubt that GM will flood the market with Camaros, just like they do with the Corvette, i'm not sure what Dodge will do, so far the numbers are low. The bottom line is, we all love our cars, have fun.

As a MOPAR FAN.....

Listen as my screen name here implies... I am dying to say that the CAMARO just plain and simple is the best car of the "RETRO" group !

For what you can buy in a Camaro (V-6 speed) and (Interior Style) that Dodge just doesn't have and well FORD I will not say a word about besides (Found On the Roadside Dead)... I am a "on the job" and suffered with Crown VIC's for ever !!! The Charger rules the "work" side but the CHALLENGER falls flat when it comes to performance and style... (SORRY DAD - MOPAR)

Can't wait to get my CAMARO... And yes it kills me to have a bowtie in my driveway but, at least it's not a FORD !! LOL

I belong to another web site that also trashed the new Camaro, which I no longer use after buying my Camaro and trading the other car. When GM hit a home run with styling and engineering other car companies have been sweating it out due to a loss of sales. Chrysler is owned by Fiat, which says a lot to where they will be shortly after posting more losses. Maybe Challenger owners will get parts from a company that makes some really challenging cars for people in Europe that want 50 mpg not horsepower.

Chrysler won’t be here in 4 or 5 years at the rate they are losing money is what I would bet on. The government will not pump more money into Chrysler and Fiat will cut their losses unless they can market their eco cars on the American market. Good bye Hemi.
