I am looking for an other car and was interested in the 98-02 camaro z28 or the 98-02 trans am and they must be 6-speed. I would like to know is what one is better for a price of 13-15K. I will be trying to built a 650 whp car when all is said and done. Right now I am trying to get a good car to start.

Check both out, and decide from there. Its a matter of personal preference, whichever styling you like better, just go with that. They are identical in everything but styling and design.
Personally I like Trans Ams, which is why I bought one. SS Camaros look great though too. The thing that really turns me off to the Camaro though is the body sculped mirrors (black plastic on some Camaro models), the rear bumper has no countours for the tail pipes, and the interior, which lacks the style of the T/A.

I was looking for a WS6 TA but when i found my Hugger Orange Z28, I couldn't pass it up. Now, looking back, if I had it to do again, and the Hugger hadn't been there, I'd of looked for a formula or a blackhawk. Formula's are stealth, like my Z.
