I really like the GT500KR, but I would buy a Z06 before I would buy that

CaptianSam · 02-29-2008, 12:26 PM

Like the others, it is nothing more than a machine, an appliance.

thats for true

I've been trying to think of any other car that I would want if I couldn't get the Camaro. I think that not being able to get my Camaro would blow my mind so much that I would probably end up with a Civic Hybrid, or worse, a Prius.

Wow Cubanaso our lists are pretty similar. Good taste man.

Great minds think alike...lol.

My revised list:

1) Camaro 2010
2) RXsomething or other from Mazda
3) IF, they bring that Holden Coupe 60 in some GM form, ITS HOT!
4) Stickshift G8 slightly used to pricey for me
5) Audi A4 which I have a lust affair with in my mind current gen or previous
6) Hyundia Genesis Coupe (yes, I said it)

Let's all admit, we are whores for cars...forever lusting after a new pretty face, our eyes fixed on their performance attributes.

Truly, they are mechanical woman to us.

LOL

The more I think about it the more I'd lean toward a Sierra as an alternative. Possibly an STI or Evo, since they would get a little better mileage and still be a hoot to drive. I'm not partial to their prices though. If I'm spending that much for a car, I think I'd expect a little more than some rice. A G8 is looking better all the time.

jhitson · 03-03-2008, 01:01 PM

I like the WRX. I also like the Solstice. I know it has a certain feminine aire about it, but it looks like it would be a blast to drive in the hills around where I live. I've also considered a V8 conversion on my S-10.

*radz28* · 03-03-2008, 01:46 PM

LS1 in my 4Runner

Can't remember if I'd posted on this or not. If, by some screwup of nature the Camaro's get's priced out of my reach (I doubt it will), my next choices would be 1) G8 GT, 2) Mustang GT and a way distant 3rd. . . . . Challenger R/T

Is that because you don't like it? Or because it can't keep up with the rest of the cars on your list?
