If your truck runs low 12's without slicks, why use it as a measuring stick for calling a Challenger slow? Hell, by your truck's standard's, the new Camaro will be slow too.

Im not posting this as an excuse to say how many cars I have. High school over, buddy. If having a couple of them makes me a dick sorry about your narrow minded attitude.

Since I actually have both that puts me in a better position to evaluate both, but maybe thats too complicated to you.

Since your so tough why dont you PM Nine Ball and tell him how he is a dick too for having nice rides?...I know your type though, just think because some dude can afford nice rides you feel the need to bring him down just because....quite typical around here.

If I can't afford and SRT8, my fallback will be an R/T. The R/T comes in at exactly $31,352 invoice, including Detination & options I want.

Also, if I do have to compramise and get an R/T, I will also reconsider the 2010 Camaro at that point. The 2010 Camaro RS/SS is going for $31,126 invoice, including Detination & options I want.


EDIT: I am also aware that I can get a 370Z Sport for $31,594 invoice including Detination & options I want. I've looked into that as well just to keep my options open to competition in that same price bracket. I will NOT however consider a Mustang, ever.

I currently own a 1992 Trans Am GTA and a 1993 300ZX. I'm presuming that there will be many more engine upgrades for the LS3 compared to the 6.1L HEMI as well and that in the long run I can be much faster for allot less $$$. When is Direct Injection coming to the LS engine? 2011 for the Camaro?
Just get Black Camaro 3SS/RS M6

hard to argue with the camaro being the best bang for the buck.

You better sell that expensive watch and go to school again my friend because reading comprehension is owning you. Scratch that, a brain cannot be bought sadly for you....unless that is indeed such an expensive watch! Who knows?

Where I compared my cars to NineBall's? How you know how many and what car Ive owned? You need attention? right? I think Im the ****? Who was the one talking **** about how fast your redneck truck is?? Still a truck and a very ugly one I may add.

Agree, but not everyone is looking for a best bang for the buck ride. Some just get what they like...big difference.

LOL!! No wonder...Your right...you are a gypsy bitch. Maybe if you went to school that little sentence there could have been made in your favor. Only a comma away to be succesful...LOL! Who needs school anyway....to be a gipsy bitch is not needed. Hard working, honest guys must really love you now after reading those beautiful..syllables?

Probably also big on tax evasion too right? among other things... I mean, that is something to be proud of....Typical case of money dont buy taste...nor class. (specially, class)

Btw...I have only one job....guess an education has its benefits and it certainly dont make anyone a loser. Best of both worlds see, honest worker, doing whats right, serving others and paying my taxes. I would not want to be a bitch and end up sounding like a retard, illiterate that brags only of materialistic things, because in the end is about the only thing you could brag about. Dont think many here would like to be like you...gipsy bitch.

Prefer not to answer any more of your gipsy bitch attacks, not worth it. I feel like I am trying to exterminate an endangered species or something...

Now say it Sammy, my boy:

....a word about tax evasion? Mr. Gypsy?? I dying to hear that one! Anyone loves nice things but when I am paying the ******* tax money bums like you are supposed to pay so you have the nice things you say really rubs me off the wrong way. BTW, gypsy bitch learn to write professor....with all that money and no spell checker? I know you never THOUGHT about that...am I right? So, how much you payed in taxes for all those thousands of money you make?

No comparisson. LS3 Camaro by far based on modability only though, for me.

Fit and finish will be great on the Camaro similar to the SRT8 quailty.
LS3 modability (500rwhp) is day and night over the 6.1, I have an SRT8 now FYI.
Weight will be slightly less with the Camaro, though it's still a porker.

370Z is a chicks car, really, even though it's better than the 350. It displays zero testosterone.

I would just grab an 06 C6Z or an 08 C6 but that's just me, they will be between $35-40K with less than 15K miles in a few months.


My .02

Also, some of you suck on SRT8 info. An SRT8 300/Charger will walk away from an R/T. Traps vary from 95mph for R/T's to 105mph for SRT8's (average traps). The Challenger and Camaro should perform very similar when stock since both have 422/425 hp and both weigh 3900+ lbs. I think the Camaro is the lighter (on paper) so it may squeek 1-3 mph more traps. Both are fat pigs with good power.

Have you driven the Challenger yet? I know it is a big car, but IMO, they handle horrible. The SRT is just to slow to begin with and I know that can be changed but?

I would wait until you get to drive a new Camaro. That way you will be sure you didn't make a mistake.

Sorry if my question was already asked but I don't feel like reading through 4 pages...


Quick Reply: Can't decide; Challenger or Camaro?!?!
