Nah, trust me, I understand where you're coming from. And I think that was one of the most retarded comments I've seen in a while. But don't assume he's a ricer right off the bat! He might be a Yugo kinda guy ;)

Hey monkey. Thats cool and all. Since when did sales determine the fact that a car is fast or not. Ive had RX7s(discontinued) GSXs(discontinued) supras(discontinued) 300zxs(disconitnued). Now I have a modded GSX and a 99 camaro SS. I paid about the same for both. All the cars listed would get thrashed by the SS. The supra would be close but 0-60 would lose. Ricers are so much out of the league of american V8s (except mustangs) it pretty funny. Name a Jap car made today that gets 350 hp stock. Accords out sold GSR integras. . . Whats your point?

It's not all about the HP. The NSX (although it costs almost 4 times as much as an SS) has only 280HP, yet it can rip similar quarter times. Same goes for the Skyline GTR, it has &quot;280HP&quot; (that figure is a little underrated), but it's AWD system makes for a great handling experience. IT all depends on what kind of power you want :)

Yawn...

As much as I hate to see a classic faded out, the current gen fire/cam aren't anything great. The Z28 and the SS really move, but as stated before, too many yuppies drive them. Thats just IMO.

They need to return to being a pure sports car again... too bad chevy is now more about profit margin :(

<< Mr. Ace Reporter, there are 4 seats. You must mean it is rather large to be a two-door. >>


Try fitting two normal sized HUMANS in the back seat comfortable...like I said, it's a TWO seater.

some people sure are touchy about their cars.

here's a private message to me from CableGod:



<< so you think I am white trash just because I drive a camaro? As a matter of fact, you showed your true ignorance with that statement. You should don your flame suit because it's about to heat up in that thread my friend. Ok, my point? I think you are a low-life immigrant piece of crap for saying it. >>



i don't judge people by what they drive, but i'll rephrase my humble opinion: the camaro is a &quot;Dream Car&quot; of the white trash class. does that hit a nerve, too?

Do these cars still come with a tube of super glue in the glove box so that you can repair all of the plastic trim pieces yourself when they start to rattle severely and fall off?

NFS4, the weight reduction that you mentioned is a gradual process that happens naturally on these vehicles during the course of normal use.

LOL, the interior of the Camaro is horribly cheap. A $14k Civic has better quality materials and fit &amp; finish.

I don't know whether to laugh or be scared of various Camaro parts scattered among the highways :)
