Glad she's ok.
Hitting the pole guide wire at a different angle could have been worse.
No matter what you drive, hitting the guide wire the way she did would cause any vehicle to flip.
And yes, go for any model Camaro.

Thumbs up

I am glad to hear that she is ok.
You really can't go wrong with either car that you mentioned. Both cars have that "wow" factor as well.
But as far as performance goes, the Chevy is king, between the two. Just wait till all the aftermarket mods come out for this beast.
GOOD LUCK!!!

She hit a guide wire for the telephone pole which caught the front left tire and flipped the car.

She called me and I showed up with the cop. Very cool cop, no tickets issued. On a side note..she is having a VERY tough month...she got kicked in the head/face 2 weeks ago by our horse...
Glad she is alright.
I would definately partner up the vette with the camaro, what a great combination that would be!
I can't help myself because I am in the industry. Just so you know if it matters lol.
Guide wire would be guy wire! I know, pretty anal, but like I said I couldn't help myself.
Logical guess though!

I am glad she is okay. Sell the horse! Buy the Camaro but get the 2LT-auto Install battery operated fly zapper!

Glad she's ok. I bet you could even fit a saddle or 2 in the back! After that she deserves a Camaro!

Well this gen Camaro should be one of the safer cars on the road these days, I bet you'd both love it but I'd get the order in ASAP if it's what you want.

Well, you're not going to get any arguments here, as far as getting a Camaro. But you're gonna lose some ability to haul stuff that you did with here car.
