New vs Old School Camaros

Hey Guys,

We had both a 1968 and a 2010 Camaro in the shop for tuning and thought we would share. Funny thing is both cars put down virtually the same numbers.

Same acceleration numbers but no contest in the cornering and braking comparison.
Big advantage of the '68 is that it's value appreciates while the 2010 will depreciate.
