need help choosing:firebird or camaro and what color
ok guys i used to have a white 95 camaro then i bought my indigo blue 2000 silverado("ohohsliverado") and i have missed the camaro ever since. i wanted to try and get an 01 or '02 camaro or firebird because the block already has the ls6 intake and better crankcase breathing passages, at least thats what i have read. anyway, i want a color that doesnt show up scratches(like my blue truck does) too bad and i cant decide between the two cars. im not a big fan of the camaro headlights but i like the body, and i like most of the firebird except for the taillights. any opinions guys, and if you have pics of your rides that would be awesome too. thanks in advance.

i like the black interior with leather, which is what i have, nbm=navy blue metallic (owner here). ive driven both t/a and camaro and i didnt like the t-shifter in the t/a and the oval air vents, seemed kinda tacky. stock with a a4 i run a 13.6 with a shitty 2.1 60', im going back to the track to seei f i can get a 2.0 60', so we shall see im hoping for 13.5

SOM (Sunset Orange Metallic) or HO (Hugger Orange) are the two orange colors. I have an SOM with only one small scratch and it's hard to see unless you are on top of it or **** about apperance like me.

My 96 was silver. It didn't show scratches or look dirty (even when it was) from a ways off (say 7-10 ft). The 02 is NBM and looks dirty (the slightest dust starts to show) even after I wash it. I like the NBM color but IMO silver hides everything and makes a good color for a daily driver.

my truck is indigo blue and it was great until i realized that there are a bunch of stupid women out there that carry big purses with things dangling off of them that walk by my truck everyday(customers where i work). i got probably a dozen almost full length light scratches from that kind of crap. so no more dark colors for me
