Vettes are more likely to have spent its life as a garage queen, prime for some abuse and new mods.

I like the Camaro/Trans Am due to the extra room. I use my backseat a lot, have lugged some friends around in it too, but mostly I put my stuff back there when going to work, traveling, shopping, whatever. The Corvette will get more looks I think, but nothing looks more muscular and aggressive than a Trans Am WS6 IMO.

Traded my 6 speed Formula for a low mileage C5. The vette handles better and I get lots of compliments on it. It only had 15000 miles on it and was garage kept. But now that I want to mod I wish I had the Formula the stuff is a lot less money. The driving experience on the open road with the vette is real nice. The thing glides along at extreme speeds I call it my silver bullet. If u get the vette find a good Corvette shop STAY AWAY from the dealer !!

I owned many f bodies and a c6 now, i am building another f body, kind of comparing two different things, you will get a lot of haters though driving a vette and stupid comments from people

Well i can honestly say that the corvette is an overall better car. I have a 98 formula and my dad has a 04 corvette. My car has a Cat-back, intake, free mods, and a basic tune from a hand held. My dads corvette is completely stock with 8k miles on it. When we go cruising the vette can out corner me no matter what. It has to do with the trans being in the back and the 2 section gas tank and the leaf spring in the back. The vette has awesome weight distribution. Now when we "race" he gets me in the top end because hes lighter. Both cars are A4s as well. I drove both and i got to say you get what you pay for in a vette.
