When I was working in a garage, I had my GTA up in for an oil change one saturday, and while I was doing that, an '88 (same year) IROC came in for the same. Perfect chance for a side by side.

hmm werid... i get stares and thumbs up on a daily basis...id think my car stands out a little bit...now a reg zs8..ya does look exactly like a v6 but to each his own...they are both sexy cars that BOTH have their own unique style.man yal bash other ls1s more than ricers and mustangs these days..sad

oh well guess we will just have to stick with our camaros huh, at least we have more options in the hood department, cowl, SS, Stingray, the list goes on and on. all the TAs hoods are the same just nostril scoops are bigger, and i dont like the TAs interior it doesnt look as good as the camaros interior IMO.

I'm not puttin' down the Camaro. I just thought the Disney Car resembled the Dick Harrell, the big fender flares, the spoiler, the "mouth" or grill. We all know what we really regret, is not buying a Mustang. 5.0 HOOOLLLAAAAA!!!

Good save, I thought the forum was going to explode into a civil war with the ponchos on one side and the chevy guys on the other.

Lets put it this way, apples and oranges. Both are good

The Taurus SHO is more "understated" than the Mucielago too.

Perhaps "ricey" doesn't mean what you think it does.

Hill completely screwed the styling of the Corvette 6 ways from sunday. It's trying to be an amalgamation of all generations of Corvette and they ended up with more of a mongrel than a tribute to heritage.

On top of that, the headlights are just friggen googly eyed.

Not to mention that it looks like a camaro now.

An absolute travesty in all ways. It just so happens that he simultaneously made it the best performing Corvette *ever* at the same time. lol

The 'Vette has always been my all time favorite car. Making me doubly bitter about what he did to the styling.

HPP, I never thought I would find such a diehard firebird lover. Don't know about the upscale bit though (they're still fbody's and seen by the general public as joe dirt's dream machine). But if it makes you feel better to think you're in a higher class you da man!
