Camaro and Other Cars You Considered?

[chevyk1]

My choices were used vette, Challenger or C class with amg package. Insurance and the fact that a new vette is just around corner crossed that out. In the end told my dealer who is a close friend of mine to get me me one of the remaining choices from auction for me. All up to his discrection on what he thought was the best deal. The Challenger and Benz I was really particular about the colors I would take the Camaro honestly flip flopped between colors so much he had option of any color. In the end he called up told me to come check out what he got for me which ended up being a keeper!

Didn't even consider anything else. Didn't need another car. Just plain wanted a Camaro so I bought one. Now I have 3 cars and a pickup. All Chevrolets.

That was my plan as well. If not for the Camaro, i would still drive an 04.

I looked at the v6 mustang, but the styling wasn't good enough on that trim (The GT500 is another story). I liked the gearbox and performance better on the stock mustang, but with my mods that is not a problem anymore. But, the Camaro turns heads and its beauty couldn't be denied, so happy with my choice.

335i or G37 type S. Both Sedans. I can not imagine I would enjoy driving one of those cars as much as my V8 rocket ship that is slower than a mustang. But who cares. I don't track it.

[i007spectre]

i was thinking a older 350z or a new 370z

[Mellish50]

it was either camaro, challenger or 370z

In 2007 I owned a 2002 Mustang with 50,000 miles on it. I looked at three cars; a 2007 Mustang GT, a 2007 Solstice GXP and 2006 GTO. As much as I wanted the GTO because it was 7k under book brand new, I bought a house instead. The GTO had everything I wanted in a car, RWD, big V-8, 400 horses and GMS. The only thing that was so so, was the exterior styling but it wasn't horrible.

Sparing the long story on the the house I found myself looking for a new car again in March 2010. This go around I had three choices; the 2010 Mustang GT, 2010 Challenger RT and of course the 2010 Camaro SS. The Challenger was just too big for my tastes and it was only car I could not get an employee discount on. The 2010 GT had only 315 horse power compared to the 400 in the L99 Camaro. The Camaro by FAR had the best styling and options that I wanted. Plus everything that I liked about the GTO was present in the new Camaro, I suspect that has something to do with Holden. So in the end it was really an easy decision on my 1SS.

First I was really into the 370z but then I was watching Entourage and I saw one of the characters driving a ford raptor so that became my new obsession for about 6 months. I ended up going with the camaro though

[supersport24]

It came down to a 2011 2500hd duramax or the 2011 Camaro. The car won out but i'm working on a way to get that pick up.

I was thinking Cobalt SS or Equinox when I drove on the lot in my 05 Cobalt but hey, I went home in MY Camaro.

[Silver2SSRS6spd]

Used C6 Corvette. Glad I bought a new fifth gen!

The new Ford 5.0 , there nasty lil ****ers but damn there so ugly from the rear and the Challenger SRT8 but it was too pricey and plain so the obvious chose was my SIM 2SS, just like in the damn commercial, i fell in love and im happy i waited....
