Why buy a Type-R when a Camaro is faster?

Reason why someone wanted a 240SX ($24k) instead of a Camero ($17k) when I was in high school 5 years ago: "The Camero is too big"...



...I've never considered a Camero big, but some families never see anything larger than a Carolla.
 
theres something about the sound of the ls1 that just can't be replicated by a whiny little v6.
 
Camaro's dont suck ass, problem is most teenage-idiots dont know how to drive them, so it gets a bad reputation. If you take care of the car its very reliable, mine has over 100,000 miles with no major problems.

Its called a muscle-car for good reason, if you're hustling around corners it does take some effort to corner it, but it has a ton of grip. Its not nimble, but I like the secure solid feel of the car. For the money I'm willing to put up with the cheapish plastics, and a few minor things. I just couldnt justify spending more money on a whiny Japanese car, when this car has such a nice V8 engine.
 
I like the Camaro Z28 SS.

Exotic Car acceleration, spit on a grittle grip, sexy V-8 growl, and good old fashioned, mamba jamba real wheel drive fun! All that torque makes for some good donuts without the snow!

I'll always love the way rear wheel drive cars handle...even the camaro with it's wickedly old live rear axle! Besides...the SS shines on the racetrack, sans miscelleaneous bumps.

Long live the concept of building a car around an engine!

Prefer the Chevelles & Malibu's personally. The REAL chevy muscle cars. Maybe I'm partial cause I have a '66 SS, but they've just got STYLE, unlike anything new today. Camaro is just as good, little more comon, but anything is better than a Honda.

And by god, when drive in movies reigned, the "Muscle Cars" had the big back seat for a god damn reason. The whole car screams sex. It rumbles 🙂 It vibrates 🙂 It growls 🙂 Hell, put your foot into it, and you're already in the back seat.

Course that's nothing compared to the sounds of todays lawnmower's on steriods... Course it's only fitting, a Honda in a drive in movie is just a shame, perhaps this is the cause for no drive in Movies anymore.... wait. Inspiration for a new thread.
