When I saw the original concept back in 2006, I knew this was the Camaro for me. No question.

The performance side to me was a benefit. So, it is a mixed thing for me.

I love the performance, I love the looks, and I just flat out love the car. End of story and I am stickin' to it.

+1. My favorite is the visual design of the car, and it's just an enormous bonus that it's the fastest car I've ever owned.

I voted looks but don't get me wrong, I bought the car for both.

Performance can be done later if wanted.

We bought a Camaro for both looks and performance..thats why I voted Mixed. the looks are fantastic and the performance of the V6 from my test drive I took is going to be better than anything else I have owned in the past and still get decent gas mileage...

I love both the looks and the performance. I knew when I first saw the 2006 concept that I wanted the car and I was sold once I found out about the performance of the SS.

Well my Camaro already has performance... can't deny that with 304 hp. So I'm going to get a new spoiler put on eventually (dovetail style) and some metallic white stripes. May eventually get some new ground effects put on. But the performance is perfect for me

If I need more, there's always a turbo option...

i say performance before looks because all the kids these days make cars look fast, and tough, when there's nothing under the hood. Im not saying the stock ls3 is weak, i just think make the camaro even faster, than make it look as tough as it really is.

Looks closely backed up with power.I wanted a 2ss but also needed a trunk full of mods,so i downgraded to a 1ss in order to buy 2k worth of visual and power mods.
Best of both worlds for me.

Lucky SOB · 12-17-2009, 01:50 PM

I can't vote because 9000 miles later it is still bone stock.

Performance.

From the factory, the car looks awesome. So first comes performance. Gotta back up that mean look. x3

And you could call it looks, but I call it performance - wider rubber/wheels to handle the increase in driveline performance.

Chewy · 12-17-2009, 03:35 PM

i prefer both.

right now im sticking to mostly appearance mods and whatever performance i can add while retaining the warranty
