I have to admit the 6th gen body style isn’t the killer for me, it’s the direct injection that talked me out of owning one. Don't get me wrong, direct injection is much better for fuel economy and more efficient at producing power, but in my experience, it’s also better at eating up your spare time with added maintenance or turning your car into a lawn ornament. Top end reliability suffers from the filth that builds up on the back side of the valves. I can’t fault anyone for jumping into a 6th gen, they’re quick and nimble, and although I do prefer the 5th gen’s looks, I think the 6th is still a nice looking car. I just don’t want a weekend fun car that requires the extra maintenance that DI brings with it. I think my next fun car is going to be a 2008-up (LS3) C6. Seems like a great build foundation for the money spent and is lighter than any 5th or 6th gen Camaro. Whatever I end up doing, I’ll be keeping the 5th gen.
