Are you a screamer , " LOOK AT ME " wanna be a bad-*** boy racer with your Fireturd & big bold chicken on the hood ?
Or you can prefer the smooth sleek rounded conservative lines and classic styling on the Camaro's . TA's looked good for about 2 or 3 years but that over the top teenage style just doesn't wear as well as time goes by . Like the old saying goes , "you can't polish a turd" !

Camaro's, but I still want a 98-02 WS6 All blacked out. Lol I always have older people calling my Z28 a "Trans Am" for sum reason, so I have the best of both worlds i guess.

Just wondering:

Has anyone stopped to think that maybe the reason people can and do modify camaro appearance more, is because the T/A LOOKS ALMOST PERFECT FROM THE FACTORY??? Isnt that the debate/ debate ender anyway???

i like the ws-6 look over the camaro ss look.. so that's where my vote went, but i still have love for the SS's!

and the dh camaro's would be my pick over any of the above any day of the week.

I only really have one complaint about Camaro's. They have terrible wheel selection. The salad shooters and snow flake rims are horrible. Course, the Firebirds did have those ugly wheels (don't know what to call them) in '93 and '94. My opinion is Camaro > Firebird, unless the bird has the W68 appearance package with the ground effects. And the T/A's with the taller spoiler look even better.

Except for 1969, the Firebird has always looked better or on par (third gens) with the Camaro. Heck, even '69 ties it up if you include the T/A, just that so few were made. For those of you that think the Camaro always looked better, surely no argument 1974-1977, I hope. Or early third gens. Even the early 4th gens, I'll say the T/A is on par with the Camaro, though a LT1 WS6 is a stunner.

If the Firebird is "so much better" than the Camaro , Why is only
the Camaro coming back ? As stated from the man himself
"Firebirds days are gone"













































Sorry for the blow just stating some facts

by looks, but every year under, mainly 93 and down camaros looked
way better then any firebird, now thats no argument
