If it is in your budget than a Vette Hands Down

Camaro is more practical. Parts would be cheaper for repair. It would also lose more value than a used corvette. My wife will let me get whatever I want. We could afford a brand new Z06 but I would feel guilty getting that, so thats out of the question. Either $30K-$35K '05 or '06 vette, or a $30K-$35K '10 Camaro.

Okay, so your saying that you could afford and have the wife on your side for a new z06 and your worried about feeling guilty

You know I say go by looks if u say it reached the price of a used corvette then so be it if u wanted one you get it if you like the look of the Camaro and everything regardless how close the prices are to a used corvette

My wife and I had the same discussion. We test drove 'vettes and my wife just was not comfortable with the low ride. Don't get me wrong...my goal was to own a vette before I died (like so many red blooded American guys). Our 2010 Camaro will be a shared weekend "toy". We both have daily drivers that get us back a forth to work.

We're use to Chevelles so the new Camaro fits us better. Can't wait for our 2010 SS to arrive.

Former Rides:

1966 Chevelle (1971 to 2007)
1970 Chevelle (1974 to 1991)

Prices are the important factor,nothing regardless about it.The ONLY difference is the vette may have to stay stock for a while,but the Camaro could get the magnacharger instantly.

The Vette has been around for a while in its current model. The Camaro is brand new, so if you are looking to turn heads, that's another reason to get the Camaro.
