I'm partial to the birds, I would have thought that the camaros were more liked given that you seem to see so many more of them and because there are sooo many more appearance mods for them.

Maybe because they have more room for improvement?

I don't think anybody is being too serious, just having some fun. Everyone is just sticking up for their car. Same thing happens when you talk about sports teams. IMO both cars are amazing if their done right!

I like them both about the same overall, but for different reasons (and I've owned one of each).

I think the Camaro has a more "classic muscle" look to it. When you put 17x11s in the back and lower it an inch or so it looks like pure American muscle, very aggresive.

The Firebird has more of an "exotic" look IMO. It's a little more flashy and "look at me", but that can be cool too.

hahaha this is good


21. Girls like them better well thats because more girls have owned camaros than trans ams.

22. it might be a heavy chevy but your still lighter than us...guess me have more muscle

23. copies ha we are a perfected version.

24. A WS.6 still out blue books your camaros

25. Our emblem is the screaming eagle and yours is that little flag emblem that kind of resembles the one behind the horse in the mustang emblem

26. Our headlight dont get all nasty and mucky so everyone can see

27. our fog light don't look like a second set of blinkers

28. Our cars won't drop in value as much when the new camaro comes out

29. Being a Transformer is nice, but it looks like you might be transforming into a 4000 pound car

30. oh and as for looking better as a vert.....



This all for fun and I would love to have a SS next to my bird in the driveway

ive been in th trans am and the camaro. starting off in the trans am was like riding a monster frickin amazing. and then trans am got sold n then moved to the camaro... it just doesnt have the same personality, the same menacing curves, the same beast qualities.

Your voting privelages have been revoked. Granted, the '76 T/A pales in comparison to a 70-73 T/A, but clearly you can see the Bird looks WAY better than that other thing with the guardrail front bumper. Besides, where was the Z28 in 75, 76, first half of 77? Missing. And then it comes back and steals all of the T/A's identity cues. LoL. So,

+1, I like that saying too!

Further more, I present the '82 T/A

And the FUGLY '82 Z28, missing its hood "louvers" with some blank stamped sheetmetal and its terrible front bumper...
