New Camaro or used C6? Hey guys,
I'm in my "saving and wishing" phase for my next toy. I had originally planned on getting a used Z51 C6 vette and adding a Magnacharger to it, probably a blower cam too
But now I'm thinking...would people think I new modified Camaro would be cooler? look better? be a little more different?
I mean the camaro would be brand spankin' new, and within the first year I'd probably be voiding the engine warranty lol
My problem is, how long before performance parts are ready for the Camaro? Aftermarket half shafts, rear ends, CLUTCH, headers, exhaust, supercharger systems etc etc etc
also...would HPTuners still work with the new LSX line? or did they change the management system?
I at least know in 1-2 years when the Camaro is out, I can load a vette up right away...Camaro? I don't know?
What would you guys do?

pick whichever one would make YOU happy, screw what other people think. you sound like your already pretty set on a vette, which would be dope. but in the end, as already stated, drive both and pick the one that will make you less angry for spending all that money.
