Thinking about selling the Camaro. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

It's been two years since I bought the car, I love it and will miss it.

I have a amazing deal on a 2008 Jet Stream Blue Z06 that I don't think I can say no to...So this may be goodbye for my car.

What does everyone here think? Should I go for the Z06? Or stick with the Camaro?

I love vettes, but with children and a wife that likes to pack a lot of bags, it isn't really practical for me as something I can take up to Seattle for the weekend, etc...

If your situation is different and you love vettes, then go for it!

The JSB z06! I LOVE that color!!! I'd have one if I thought I could do without my c6 vert. I'm just too fond of putting down the top!

(If you decide against the z06, kindly send me the deal and contact information, would you?

)

I really have NO CLUE the appeal of a Corvette. Unless you are 5 foot, how could you possibly be comfortable driving? It must be the speed but I could never give up my comfort.

JSB my favorite color on the Corvette hands down, well that and Atomic Orange.

I just bought some rims for the Camaro last week.. Throwing them on there once they get here to see if that makes my mind up. I really do enjoy the Camaro a lot, it has quite the "sex" appeal while cruising on the streets...Get a lot of reactions from people! I think the Corvette would be much more of a toy for me though...I can't make up my mind!!

Oh the dilemma lol.

Sounds to me like you may have already made up your mind

.

I go through cars every 2 or 3 years......I figure life's too damn short, you might as well enjoy it. You've had your SS for 2 years now, if you're financially able to....go for it! 2 or 3 years from now you can trade it in on a ZL1 if you decide you want to go back to a Camaro.

That's another big factor too. I had it long enough to enjoy it as much as possible, and now I'm just looking for something new. Never owned a Vette before either!

Seriously? Have you been in a Vette? Some of my best friends are very large/tall guys and have no problem fitting in their Vettes, and they don't whine about being uncomfortable, either.

My c6 isn't my daily driver, but I do drive it a good bit. I have many friends whose Vettes are their daily drivers. If you have something else to drive, a JSB z06 would be an awesome toy to have, though!

I have two other cars at the moment besides the Camaro. A 2001 Dodge stratus as a winter beater, but my main DD is a 2008 300C..nice luxury cruiser, but not exciting to drive.
