The Camaro looks great....I looks better than any BMW....or Peugeot for that matter....

Then we're gonna have to agree to disagree on that :D Looks crap to me.

Boys will be boys..

This thread has got the potential to become the longest on the on the forum..

BrianG · 10.01.2006, 03:31 PM

Yeah, X vs Y threads tend to do that...

Thanks Brian, you just contributed to my expectation..

though your post could have been more vehicle oriented, just to revolt and become a value added writer to this riot.

Lol. I think I've already said my piece. I think it's ok to express one's opinion once or twice, but trying to change someone else's opinion is just a waste of time,

It's all in good fun... threads like this offer a little humor and a break from being too serious about toy cars.

I would never own a BMW either but I have to admit some of them look sweet and the M series are real performers.

As a kid I spent time cruising in a big block 69 Camaro that could pull the front end off the ground with slicks. But I never liked them really... still a Corvette guy.

Hey... all those retro cars coming out now are cool... even the Mopar stuff.

I wouldn't say no to either one.

Rtsbasic · 10.01.2006, 07:16 PM

Well if someone said to me one day "want a Camaro" I'd quite happily accept it. Then flog it and buy a decent car :D

Lol, yup. I'd do the same.

Glassdoctor: Personally, I'd take a Viper over a 'Vette, but only the older style. Black, RT/10, ~1995-1998, preferable when they had side exhausts. Sweet.

squeeforever · 10.01.2006, 09:11 PM

Yuck...I prefer the GTS-R's....But...I would take a new '06 Z06 over all...That and a STS twin turbo would be well over 675HP at the rear wheels...Probably more like 700....

go4gold · 10.01.2006, 10:47 PM

I'm with Brain(BrianG). Every Tom,Dick and Joe drives a vet It's a poor mans sport car.

squeeforever · 10.01.2006, 11:09 PM

True, but the Z06 base price is about the same as a Viper's....I think its a matter of opinion, but the Corvette has been around for 54 years (since '53) and has alot more potential. Granted, the Viper can be pushed well above 1000HP, but that cost a $h!tload and isn't even practicle when the car is producing that much power. The Z06 can produce over 1000HP EASY with the LS2's and will still be streetable....Only problem is traction :005:.

BrianG · 10.02.2006, 12:12 AM

I am not trying to perpetuate the debate here, but the reason why I like the Viper is not simply for power, it's just plain sexy. Aggressive stance, sleek, unique, and powerful. Even the shape of it viewed from above is reminiscent of a woman's hourglass figure. The vette, albeit around for a much longer time, is, well... a wedge with a big motor. It looks nice too, but in a more plain way. Of course I'm talking about the newer ones.

Anyway, now that I said my piece (yet again), I say we redirect this thread back to Neu vs Feigao XL.

glassdoctor · 10.02.2006, 02:18 AM

Is there really anything more to say on the Neu vs Feigao? :007: LOL

I like the Viper too, it's one of the baddest looking cars ever made imo.

The 2006 Z06 is bad too... and looks much better, leaner and meaner than previous models. An average base model vette is nothing special, I agree, but the Z06 is a different animal. It really is a world class sports car that most normal joes can buy if they want to.

What is really sick is the Lingenfelter (no idea how it's spelled :019: ) corvette that has +1000HP at the rear wheels.

Check out this link to some fast American "production" cars... it has Motor Trend video clips of their tests. Stock Z06 vs. tuners. The modded Vette ran a 211mph mile and the Viper did 217mph. The bottom video is showing the instrument panel while accelerating in a stock Z06. 100mph comes up really quick... wow. :027:
