which way did you take?
and do you wish you went the other way...

JorgeSS · 12-16-2009, 11:25 PM

srry let me be specific.. which FIRST???

jeffny09 · 12-16-2009, 11:26 PM

i actually went for looks first cuz i want to wait little bit for performance but i am adding an x-pipe wit some straight pipes and the vararam intake when i getit

gtwss · 12-16-2009, 11:28 PM

No vote but, both of them

Darth_Emma · 12-17-2009, 10:09 AM

Both. I have a perfectly good car which I am keeping. I saw a Camaro sitting in front of a local Chevy dealer's lot. The style caught my eye and had me take a second look. I drove the 2SS and the performance sealed it. I'd never buy a car just on looks.

To me it's all about whats under the hood that counts. GM already did a great job designing the exterior so I'm keeping it stock.

diddiyo · 12-17-2009, 10:13 AM

performance with as much of a stock look as possible.

BackinBlackSS/RS · 12-17-2009, 10:14 AM

BOTH come standard on the 2010 Camaro.

Fesler · 12-17-2009, 10:16 AM

Go for both, what is the point of a car looking good if it cant back it up with power.

Here is a good example, we build a complete body kit, grille, tail lights, wheels, brakes, suspension, interior and then dropped in a LS-9 with custom tune new built tranny, rear end, drive line, 1000 HP axles and 1000 HP drive line.

gregus73 · 12-17-2009, 10:18 AM

mixed.
performance and price made the deal.
was between the challenger r/t.
looks was an added bonus :-)

daphatgrant · 12-17-2009, 10:18 AM

Gotta be a mix, for example the G8 is awesome in the performance category but it's looks don't appeal to me.

v6sonoma · 12-17-2009, 10:24 AM

All show and no go is rice. And although and old 57' chevy in primer with no interior and a giant motor is bad ass I'm not sure it translates to newer cars. Ya gotta have both.

Michael_Js · 12-17-2009, 10:26 AM

I like the mix: my sig illustrates...more performance to come, but nothing big. I'll be waiting for the Supercharger

Stillen drilled/slotted rotors & SS brake lines just ordered

Next year, more cosmetics: Orange Gary's fenders, some non-carbon hood, ... ?
