The z28 will be unique, rare, etc, and have more power than the vette.

But the vette is lighter, and in all honesty, looks better. I love camaros (even the 2014's), but that vette looks just as good, if not better than a bunch of ferrari and lambo models. Its freaking amazing in person.

Not to mention the updated interior!

What are the prices of the two with the options you would want?

Another thing, the camaro is still based off of a 2009/2010 design. The corvette is 100% new everything, frame, suspension, engine, interior, etc etc.

Me personally, Id keep my camaro for a few more years, and then get a vette. Im not ready to leave the camaro world. But ive only had my camaro since mid-2012.

They're only making 1500 Z28's, and they're being built as 95% Track cars, no AC, no radio, no sunroof, they're going to cost more than the ZL1 and with the limited number (1500) the dealers will be taking orders from the rich & famous to add to their collections. GM will be making the Z28 performance parts available in the catalog for SS's. I wouldn't even consider a Z28 and I had 2 of them back in the 80s, but they had T-Tops & were loaded, this new Z28 is a whole different animal, you might as well just consider buying a ZL1, as you'd have a better chance of seeing it or you can buy the ZLX and blow all 3 away (sorry for the shameless plug)



And besides, where's the baby seat going in the Vette?

Now back to your normally scheduled broadcast:



Hi Pierre, my friend sorry I've been gone for so long, but life got in the way, and I dropped the ball forgetting where my friends were. So I'm back for good, my brotha and your whip looks fantastic as always! Your skills are endless, I love what you did with the sound system, I had to pay an asshole to do mine! I wish I had those skills to do more work on my beast, instead of having to pay to have it done. Keep up the great work amigo!

Dude Im going to have to go with the Z/28...Lets face it we all love both of them. We are all Camaro fanatics and the new vette is so sexy. IMO you can mod a vette but you can mod it to the point of our camaros it still always looks like a vette the Z/28 is more rare and here we are 4 to 5 years down the road and we all are still in love with our camaros. The vette is like the new shiny toy and lets face it the 60 year old plus crowd are going to all have them in their driveways with their golf clubs in the back on the way to the country club. The z/28 is a legend and will remain that way for a long time now. But just like everyone else giving their input here, what comes down to is YOU. what do YOU want.

Either way you cant go wrong
