First off, let me say that if it wasnt for my Camaro, i wouldn't be the person I am today (in a sense). I would not know how to do a header swap, or even know what a intake manifold was for. This camaro introduced me into a whole new world that i had no clue was so exciting. I have poured my heart,sweat,blood and of course.... lots of money into my Camaro. So you could say its also sentimental to me as well. But something has come up. A cousin of mine stumbled upon a good deal on a 99 FRC Vette. This car only has 30K miles on it and is stock/pampered. It is a 6 speed and is clean in and out and the guy is only asking $19K. My question is, would any of you sell your camaro or Trans Am and get a Vette if you had the chance and it was a good deal... even if you put alot of time and effort and money into your current ride. Just look at my mods in my Sig and then think about going to a stock Vette, lol. Is it worth it? Would you do it?

Heres a pic of it.

I say get it. I never had a C5, but I used to have a C4 and I can tell you that car was a blast to drive, more fun than my Z28 is. I know for sure the C5 is even better than a C4.

Honestly i wouldnt go for a vette unless it was a C6, those C5's arent even as cool because of them

The c6 is holding it's value pretty well. You could always wait for them to come down a bit more or maybe hold out for a 02-04 z06.

Honestly, if it was me, as long as you don't feel like you're gonna lose money on your camaro. I'd say it would be worth it.

I'd hate to sell my car and come at a big loss what not and then get a vette. If you can keep it even and get what you feel the value is on your camaro, thats a nice vette and sounds like a good deal.

I'd say do it. But I wouldn't, I'd try for both.

I remember seeing a thread exactley like yours except the guy really did sell his car and buy the vette and he really wanted his camaro back. Like badly so he started the modding process all over again on his vette.

**** no like you said sentimental values with your camaro which is beautiful by the way and you already built up that relationship. Plus the vette is not really that good of a deal imo.

If you were trading for a 02 or newer z06, I'd say go for it, otherwise, keep your Camaro.

Besides the money I put in Mods, I would actually be making money. I only owe so much on the car because I've been making higher payments than needed, if I sold the car I would actually have $7500.00 left over. I could either cut the price of the Vette from $19K down to $11.5K or use that money for MODS!!!! Or a combination of both.

True, i remember people offering me ridiculus amount of money for the car, thousands above KBB and I would always deny them, and my dad/friends thought i was crazy not to do it, but they dont understand that my Camaro has been a big part of my life.

And you dont think the Vette is a good deal? If i wanted to, i could cut the price of the Vette down to 11,500.00 by using the money left over when i sell my car. But then again a side of me tells me to stick with the Camaro since I've had it for years

omg, as cool as that vette is, DONT DO IT! that camaro (from the pics and the sig) is hot as hell! if you get the vette you will only grow to realize that its slow compared to the camaro, and you will end up modding it up any way. so my vote is stickwith the camaro!

I'm gonna agree with the above a bit.. Sounds like you could make it work. I've only driven one c5 and it's quite a bit different experience.

Maybe aim for somthing a bit newer. like an 02+ C5. I know I've seen some low mileage 02's going for maybe a couple thousand more. Wait on a z06 I'd say. Then you'd be probably not feel any buyers remorse.

Do it. Not many white FRCs out there. And it seems I see more ls1 ss cars than Z28s. You wont regret it. Then again, i still have my camaro.

you can do it!!!!!

Also, as bonus if you get that vette you won't have to kill yourself on keeping that black paint clean anymore.

Try for both.

I would stick with what you got unless its a lemon and is costing too much to up keep which is very unlikely!
