Personally I like the new Camaro. But styling is subjective. I prefer the curves of the C5 over the C6, but some go the other way (that and the C6 needs something to break up that grill). Maybe it'll grow on ya

07's had the LS2's 400hp, the 08's have the LS3's 435hp. If the guy has been to the track enough times and knows how to drive mid to low 12's in complete stock trim. Otherwise if no experience easily 13's.

For reference my car with just a Blackwing (air filter) and street tires turned a 13.1@111. So an LS2 or LS3 car driven well should be pretty darn quick.

Well he's got a mid 12 second car if he can drive it. Your convertible with the mods in your sig is probably a mid to high 13 second car, unless you have mods you aren't listing.
