I wouldn't be surprised if the 5th gen's size is the Corvette owner's biggest beef with the Camaro. It used to be something of a poor man's Vette with a back seat. Now it's more like a Chevelle. An awesome car in its own right, but not quite the Corvette alternative that it once was.

Now the V6 is truly a very good Camaro, while the V8 is even more powerful.
Interestingly, the 4th gen 3.8 V6 Camaro was about as quick as the V8 Mustang when it was introduced. The more things change...
