Camaro or Corvette, which is better?



Pfadt customers typically fall into two categories: Corvette or Camaro enthusiast. We know what they are both capable of....but which one would win in a race? Which one looks better? Which one is a real muscle car? Which one would win a a Tug-O-War?

Click on the your favorite car above and "Like" your choice to show your support.

Lets get Camaro5 people on board to show Corvette owners they do NOT run the streets!

In order of questions asked... Corvette, Tie, Camaro (Corvette is a sports car - different animal), and Not-Sure-But-I'm-Not-Going-To-Try-It-With-Such-Nice-Cars!

I don't think you want to use a chain in a tug-of-war contest

Unless you would like to see a link snap and then both cars end up with giant holes in their rear fascias...

Exactly right,

Corvette same engine and transmission in a lighter package with a better suspension

Matter of opinion not fact

Corvette is a sports car not a muscle car

I would bet on a camaro in the tug o war, unless you are weighting the cars, Camaro has more weight on the tires so it would break traction later.

I agree Corvette is a sport car because it's a 2 seater....

Camaro is so different that the comparision does'nt even exist. The price is also different. Here in Montreal a regular Vette is at least $75 000.00, a GS $100,00.00 and a S06 $130,000.00 and SS C5 is around $47,000.00. Who would compare a Ferrari and a Vette....

I've used chains to hook up trucks to play actual games of tug of war... with both trucks having 1,000+ lbs of torque.....

What would you use? a 3/8 line?

and to voice my opinion:

Who would win in a race? Corvette
Which is more of a muscle car? Camaro
Who would win in an actual tug of war? Camaro.. easily.... same horsepower but it weighs more
Looks is a toss up
