How bout a CTS-V?

TeH BawNeY · 04-09-2010, 09:00 AM

6'3, no problems what so ever here...

I've got both, and I LOVE the G8 GT. It does a lot of things better than the Camaro, but it has a few quirks that take some getting used to. I'd say the things that I prefer in the G8 over the Camaro are

Practicality when hauling the family
Visibility
Tranny programming
Invisible AFM, in the Camaro, it feels like another gear when it kicks on and off!
Smoothness

Handling and Braking are VERY close, the edge probably going to the Camaro.

Camaro is good for

Looks
Speed

Good luck w/ your decision!

. damn it my mind says I need something practical and should sell my camaro while it has the value but my hear tells me different. Anyway at the end of the day im more than likely going to keep my camaro

............ what should I do

i drove a G8 GT... it was lovely... awesome car, really...
but trust me... as much as you'd love it,
you WILL probably regret not keeping your camaro.
now if you said you were getting a G8 GXP, well.... but still.

save up and get it in ADDITION to the 'maro! hahaha.
good luck either way... dont forget you gotta get used to the car and sometimes that can take a lot longer than we think.

Personally, 6'4" and no problems getting in and out and have absolutely no intentions of ever getting rid of this car !

But .... if you're questioning the G8 now, you will just get continually irritated every time you bop yer noggin in the Camaro. What you need to ask yourself is, will you be O.K. seeing Camaro's around town and not look backward, asking yourself 'why did I get rid of that car ?'

Just to add to confusion (no need to thank me), practicallity usually makes the most sense. In the long run, what makes you least concerned is best way to go.

Good luck !

wear a helmet.

Scrappy Doo · 04-09-2010, 09:56 AM

Hey if you don't want it, sell it and get what you want. Enjoy the g8.

OP has an LS Camaro, which the G8 GT is already faster than, not sure why everyone keeps saying "only do it if you get the GXP". GXP's will be incredibly hard to find, probably better off getting a GT and modding it if you really need the extra power.

78camaro · 04-09-2010, 10:16 AM

You'd be better off getting an infiniti g37 and get it turbocharged.

Much nicer car.

true, i know...
i just love the look of the actual, (yes rarer) GXP.
its hot. thats all.

but so is ANY trim of camaro. to each his own.
all are great options!

BigMatt · 04-09-2010, 10:18 AM

6'4" here and i've never hit my head, you must be like 6'11" lol

CaMeRoN187 · 04-09-2010, 10:26 AM

There has been alot of posts about members hitting thier heads on the sunroof section, I would suggest going to your dealer and see if you hit your head on one without a sunroof

I'm 6'1" with really long legs, but could not get the sunroof. I'm very comfy in the regular model, however. Not sure about the kids in the back.
