ok just for kicks, if i suddenly develop amnesia and totally forget that I'm into Camaros *knock on wood*,
I would go for the 2009 Audi A3.
Priced in the hight 30ks
although sporty and spacey, I will sacrifice space anyday for the 5th gen...

Shadowsong · 10-08-2008, 07:06 PM

Hmmm... I'd either look into a 98-02 SS/z28/Trans am (probably the trans am over the other two...) and throw some mods into it.

Or, I'd get a lancer ralliart.

Or, I'd turbo my current ride.

Iroc-SS · 10-08-2008, 07:16 PM

If I had to get a different car it would be a mustang, or a challenger, or a charger, or a magnum.

G8 GXP

BMW 1-series twin turbo

There is no substitute for me. Sorry but my life has been about Camaros for the past 25 years.

Metal Gear SS · 10-08-2008, 08:18 PM

Before I even knew the Camaro was even coming out next year, I was thinking maybe, G8 GXP?

But if, in a parallel universe, the Camaro won't be built anytime soon, then I would opt for the 370Z after finding out the G8 GXP would be anywhere from 30k-40k.

OR, I could buy an AE86. Yes, at one point I was debating between the hachi roku and the Camaro, lol. But, I opted for a good ol' American V8.

Iroczlover · 10-08-2008, 08:21 PM

a used corvette or a used GTP

MCPOAJ · 10-08-2008, 08:58 PM

Good call. I'd look at one of those.

And I'd also look into a Nissan 370Z.

Both small and nimble, RWD and available with manual transmissions. My kinda car. The Camaro will weigh more than I'd like it to, but I'd still buy it because it looks great, it's offered with a manual transmission and is going to be a great car.

AirGoya · 10-08-2008, 09:32 PM

Definitely a CTS COUPE! Cant wait to see when it comes out.
then maybe a GTO
then a Cobalt SS or Cruze SS

headpunter · 10-08-2008, 09:34 PM

MaxLegroom · 10-08-2008, 09:49 PM

I'd go for the Cobalt SS. It's more than good enough...
