hey ive been meaning to ask hows your ls1 runnin...o sry forgot lol
Just because I havent purchased my next car yet( it is winter in pa, kinda pointless to get a rwd beast to park right now), does not mean i cant have an opinion.

I hope this isnt going to be a my E-***** is bigger than yours match based on what we drive... i thought that mentality stopped with the cavalier forums back in my high school days...

I could have just posted no sig, but im honest. Oh and btw, Trans ams come with a family size box of condoms... FACTORY.

Pound for pound I have to say the T/A looks better. Camaro does not look.. bad per se.. but the styling is just not as unique as the T/A. I don't get the "trying too hard" vibe from T/A's as much as I get the "straight badass" vibe.

There have been Camaros that I've seen that are AWESOME looking. In the 80's there is NO contest between the two, I'm sorry Knight Rider fans, that car looked like total crap and there is no way around that. In the 70's the T/A had the upper hand after the guy who designed the 67-69 Camaros apparently died and let somebody else who was considerably less talented take over.

Blow for blow, the T/A is the victor in looks and the Camaro is the victor in popularity for sure. If I had a nickle for how many times the car in my signature has been called a Camaro I could probably afford a new paint job.

To each their own in the end, buddies.

heh its cool man, i didnt realize how pissy i sounded until i re-read my response there. Sorry about that. I guess my guard is kinda up because i half expect to get razzed about the GTP on here.

Oh and seriously, the Trans am came with Condoms, A lifetime supply of Barry Manilow, and a more supportive back seat. FACTORY.

P.S a fluffer was optional.

Firebird>Camaro

They have more appeal to them, and also get more looks then a camaro does.

I have the WS6 Firebird, but I like them both about the same. One thing I like better on the Camaro is their aftermarket hood. The firebird aftermarket hood looks hideous.
