I couldn't agree more but this is just the nature of humans. Humans are the worst animal on earth. Is not the cars that hate each other but humans who create the impression of everything and anything.

pfft.

I once fought 3 9ft tall bears, each of whom hadn't eaten for several weeks.

Camaro came back on the scene and literally crushed any Mustang offering in it's price class. The sheer looks of the 5th gen won rave reviews all over the world and was a very hot topic everywhere for years. Where else could you get these looks for low 20's? Once they hit the streets people turned their heads away from Vettes and Mustangs to gawk over the 5th gen. Still do in fact. Sales numbers since production do not lie.

Face it, Corvettes are very much a look at me type car. Wouldn't you be PO'd if you just spent that cash on a shiny new one that can beat a 5th gen in every way performance wise yet nobody is looking at you anymore.

Nobody likes being knocked down off the perch and they become very defensive when they are.

The 5th gen is riding a huge wave a acceptance by the masses young and old alike. It won't last forever but, for now bask in the glow and just be happy that it's the Camaros time in the spotlight still. Challenger is turning some heads as well but not on the same level.

Maybe i have no idea what i'm talking about but, it is exactly what i have seen and heard on many occasions.
You're pretty much right on.

So not everyone behaves the same on the boards as they do IRL...gotta take that into account.

I know a couple C6 Corvette guys at work - and one of them has taken it upon himself to park next to me when he can to protect me. Another guy really loves the color and and body style and the things I am doing with it.

Not all hate, you just gotta find the true car people, and not the car posers.

I think Matt Farah may be the king of haters. He only speaks well of exotics. He trashes everything American. In fact, I think he's just a negative person in general.

As part of my 12 Step recovery program, I admit to being a Car Guy! Having said that, I don't hate any performance automobile. Dodge, Ford, Chevrolet, Put one in my Garage, and I am Happy.

I like the Camaro, bets becasue, it is my choice. I could own a Mustang, Challenger, Charger, 300C (Oh Wait , I do!- oops), Corvatte, what ever.

I don't look down, I do occassionally rib others,. But in the end. I am Car Guy! Love 'em All!

Arrogance and Fanboy delusions are what they are.....

I have always been supportive of V-6's, V-8's, Autos, and Manuals... Make no difference to me. They all have their place. actually, we couldn't have one without the other!

Dream Garage: ZL-1, Boss 302, new SRT8 Challenger...... THat would be heavn to me.
