...I do however, have a 2005 f150 4x4 supercab as a daily driver which is paid off so this car is going to be my toy...advantage Corvette.
Styling favors the Camaro due to it being a new model vs a mid model.
Performance favors the Corvette...
Engine LS3 vs LS2 favors the Camaro...
Wife likes the Camaro much more than the Corvette...(old story met me in one while I was in highschool...advantage Camaro.
My plan is to roll my cash into a CD and pay off the Camaro in 4 years...I will earn 2.5% on my CD and pay 4% on my auto loan....In 4 years I plan on using the CD money again and buy a Corvette 2013 when it comes out...am I crazy???
edit* with so many Camaros being built and flooding the market, resale heavily favors the Corvette, which makes it easier for me to turn it in and get something much nicer...ie...65k-70 sports car...

No dude. Everything but a backseat favors the Vette. LS2? The new Vettes have the LS3 since 2008. The Vette is quicker, lighter, handles better, brakes better....I could go on. Looks are subjective.
