i say go put a deposit for the new camaro.... it will be desired by anyone with a pulse and will be way more noticeable that a 08 z06 for half the price, not to mention that by the time the 09's out the 02' vette will be an old body style 7 model year old car. I think you would be silly to jump into an 02' vette with that many miles while you obviously yern for the 09' camaro.... remember patience is golden... i wish i would have waited to get what I wanted.

Very true, they will not deal on anything and their prices are high anyways. But i say hold off, at least till the new camaro comes out and you can drive it. Everyone knows how a C5 drives. The technology of the vette is going to be over 12 years old by the time this car comes out. Drive both and your going to love one or the other

i agree with ricketzSS wait till you can actually sit inside one see how well you mesh with the car. this is all an opinion based decession and you cant even make a informed decession on the camaro until its out yet. and if you wait till it comes out then by that time if you still want the vette then the price will have dropped to get one.

I say wait for the Camaro. Be one of the first to get your deposit in so you can have one of the first ones in your area. That would be bad ***, Im still thinking about going that route.

IMO I'd keep the T/A and save up a decent amount to use as a down payment for the new Camaro...

Im in the same predicament, Should I get the new camaro or an 04 zo6?.....after i finish paying off my current 02 camaro. I love the handling and look/performance of the c5 and it will be more affordable compared to the new camaro.

But bumble bee sure looks good
