Oh and we don't have the Vette to thank for the Camaro but rather the return of the Challenger and the retro mustang in 05. Remember the Camaro was dead before their return. We may use some of the Vettes parts on our Camaros, but that's just good business on GM's part. Last edited by motorhead; 07-11-2013 at 08:49 PM. |

http://www.chevrolet.com/camaro-zl1-...ml#Performance The base LS2 Corvette was rated by GM at 12.5 seconds in the quarter mile with a 0-60 of 4.2 seconds http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...-ls2-guys.html But don't let facts get in the way of a good story

So 08 BASE VETTES are putting faster times than the ZL1? Testing with run flats? No launch control? ROFL! Why would you buy a ZL1?

Face it bud. You down graded to the worst of the C6s ever and you are trying to justify it in your mind by running everyone down in this thread.
I'm out of here. Enjoy your seven year old car. |

Guys, You're acting like him by bashing him. He had a camaro and didn't like it and the "camaro culture" according to his eyes. Dude bought a corvette and he's happy with it. He isn't complaining about his car. No need to go personal with him. It just closes his ears and makes him believe he's just. Be the bigger man, guys. If you want to go personal with him for fun, making pics, have at it. Its your time. If you want to debate with him, feel free but you're just barking at the moon. |

I know I'm wasting my time but eh. Why people buy ZL1s? Because it has 580 hp/556 tq, they like the look, it has back seats, they want the state-of-the-art suspension, and/or they like Camaros. Is the LS3 in the 08 faster? Depends on the driver. 1/4 mi and 0-60s are close by less than a second. Is it better than a corvette? Depends on your requirements. Apples/oranges. Are you happy with your corvette? Yes. Is it overpriced? Matter of opinion. I wouldn't buy one but I understand people want its S/C motor and the suspension which is high tech. Side notes: 1) Yes, there is a TSB out on the spoiler paint chip issue. But you don't prove it. Well, here's your proof. Its TSB P10319. Also, a lot of people did have this issue. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=141499 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=134331 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=95588 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=221605 2) Insurance cheaper in the corvette? Yep. But only because of age and insurance companies believe drivers won't speed in them (go fig). I know as I called my insurance agent a few weeks ago when I was hunting one. |
