Get whichever one you get the best deal on and start modding it.
If you can't make up your own mind, then I'm sorry, you're not gonna get a better idea of what to buy by asking other's what they think.

Good luck.

as long as its a m6 with a 12 bolt, your okay. the 4L60 and the 10 bolt are junk... death to the idiot that put those behind a 300hp motor.

Camaro

Trans Ams are looking more dated every year. Not trying to **** people off but popup headlights are very dated, not even supercars use them anymore. Camaro's look like a more modern car. Just for the record I like both cars a lot, I just lean towards the Camaro.

: Well, if your a juvenile get the grotesque looking turdbird with its hidous monkey face that looked ok for about two months and now looks dated. Any vehicle with that wild of a design will look old very quickly. The hidden head lights went out of style back in the late eightys plus their complexity & extra weight is a minus for performance fans.As for their bright RED gauges, that too gets old real quick.The Camaro in general & the Z-28 in particular just appears more grown-up in every way than the overstyled Fire chicken. The Z-28 with its clean uncluttered lines & its smooth shape , light weight and LS-1 engine make it the perfect gentlemans street racer. It has presence, but in a classy way. It doesn't have to shout "LOOK AT ME", I'm a young punk with a fast car. Everybody including ricers know not to f__k with a MAN driving a Z !

are you ******* serious?

if your hate is specific towards T/As then do you have a bitch about the formula?

I know pop-ups are not the greatest headlights
but you think corvette(C5-) or older Ferrari(355-) owners discard the car cause of its headlights

and when you say **** like gentlemans street racer, it makes me think of Ferrari, Lambo, Aston not Camaro

When I think of Firebird or Camaro I think Muscle Car, thats it!



but I will still laugh at this picture

Smoke Panther: funny pic!

I like both, Transams interior is better than Camaros tho, also, if you buy Camaro, get ready to spend more money on exterior mods.
