I like both, and I respect Zs just as much as any SS, and I am fully aware that an SS is basically an appearance package. I know some z28s are faster than some SSs, but for those of you saying that you would rather have a Z28 over an SS are in denial. That is one of the craziest things I have read. We all know deep down you would rather have an SS.

Looked at both Z28s and my SS before I got it. I just couldnt pass up the way a SS looks over a Z28. I relly like the Z but the SS takes the cake in my book! I love it to death, and all the attention that an SS brings is also very cool!

Why is that? So that it will look more powerfull, and people who don't know anything will think it's faster?

I get asked all the time if its a ws6 and as soon as i say no their whole world comes crashing down, one guy asked me what it was and i told him "trans am" and he asks "v6 or v8?" people are stupid

I like my z28, I have beaten a few ss's people have their opions. The SS's do look good though, I had a ss hood on my car for a while.

Oh man get over yourself. believe it or not some of us prefer the smooth look of the Z, and the ability to blend in as a sleeper especially when minus badges. The only thing I would switch to thats on the SS is the spoiler with the minor flip up.

There is really no major performance difference but I bought my SS for the wheels, hood, and upgraded SLP exhaust

It was 01 or 02, I always keep flip-flopping them in my head. Thanks for clearing it up

I'll hope you were being sarcastic. I've had both, and after my current SS is gone - and if I get another f-body, it'll be a Z28. With everyone wanting a SS, I'd rather have a Z28 just because it'll different amongst the "followers"...

I'm a SS - owning Z28 supporter

I personally think SS's look a lot better than z28's. If i was gonna get a non-ws6 or non-ss i would get a T/A and i think it's a lot more fun racing with a stick than an auto but that's all just my personal preference. My brother had an a4 T/A non-ws6 and people would give him crap all the time about it being an auto until he took them for a ride in it.

I've had to do that with mine.

right on man I dont understand why this is turning into z28 vs ss anyway!

My "debatable" argument:

SS will hold it's value much over time. I'm planning to own the car forever, and 30 years from now it will be cool enjoying my factory-ordered '02 SS.

I gave up my beloved 1988 Camaro to buy the SS. It was 14 years old, stored winters, MINT condition. But it was a V8 smog-motor (TBI) coupe. In '88, they had the upgraded engine option (TPI), and IROC option. If it was an IROC, I would have kept the car. But since it was "just a coupe", it had little "significant" historic value, so I chose to sell it.

My "non-debatable" argument:

I wanted a 1LE car, SLP exhaust, and SLP "oem" blackwing air lid. Therefore, easy decision, case closed, only the SS could be ordered from the factory with the SLP Up-fits.

==========

Regardless gang, it's almost a silly "debate" -- enjoy your cars!!

I have both a 01 SS and a 02 Z/28 so fricken what? I tell you what for some reason when they get spanked by a Z they are all kinds of pissed whether it be a 03 Cobra to a 02 CETA they get pissed because they got beat buy a Z28. It dont matter and this thread is dumb anyways. All I know is that when my car was stock it could take out a few SS around my part of town. Maybe its just the driver.

If you're driving a Camaro, I don't care if it only has 6 cylinders or 8. At least you're into something that means a lot to me. The Corvette guys have a wave, and I always try to wave at a passing Camaro.

I have nothing against you Firebird guys, I'm just not passionate about them like I am the Camaro.

I say "No, it's just a Camaro. Wanna run for $500?"

I can't believe some of you guys get mad when people expect your Z28 to be an SS. Ok, let me just say that i got an SS and i'm really happy with it. "It's the top of the line in Camaros", and i think that's what people want to hear. There is no second best to SOME people, but forget them, it's your car so screw them! Anyways, I got nothing against Z28's cause it's the same freakin car, except the SS has like 10-15 HP more. If you wanna get mad at something people say, you should get mad when people say... "Oh, you got a Camaro... it's the poor man's Corvette!" What on earth do you say to that? I freakin hate that ****! Another thing that pisses me off is this comment... I have 2 camaros. I got a 99 SS Camaro, and i got a 91 RS Camaro 3.1L V6. I got the 91 Camaro before the SS, and i got it to get to point A to point B. I'm in the Navy and it makes no sense to drive back and fourth from Virginia to Jersey in an 8 cylinder car every weekend, so i got 2 camaros. Besides, i found the 91 for a cheap price. Anyways, another thing that pisses me off is when people say you got a 6 cylinder... 6 cylinder camaro are for girls! **** that! I personally think Camaros should be in V8 only, but if your happy with a V6, so be it! It's your life.

blkZ28spt

No, they don't. That's the whole point. There are proabably almost as many Z28's that make more power than SS's as vice versa.

Black Z/28

I always refer to my Camaro as a 'Z28'. Most 'car people' that I talk to (over 25) know what a Z28 is. And Z/28 sounds cool. Gm sticks 'SS' on everything. I think it has diminished the lustre of the SS. That said, the SS looks great. Love the spoiler.
