I overheard a real life Camaro5 douchebag last night at a big car cruise- he was parked behind me. Pudgy, 50 or 60-something year old white guy. Had a bone stock, 3-week old ZL1. The comments he made to anyone who checked out the car were absolutely hilarious. Some of my favorites:
"Except for the Corvette nothing else under $600,000 can touch this thing on a roadcourse"
"Anyone can spend a couple hundred dollars on their car and go fast in a straight line, this thing is built for real racing, which is what I do"
"This is a world class sports car, it isn't made for drag racing, it's made for open course racing"
"Talking all around performance there's really nothing out there that can touch this thing for near it's price"

considering the ZL1 barely got away from the BOSS around willow springs, I've got zero doubts that the GT500 will continue to stretch the ZL1 buttonhole around turns.

^^LOL.
Anyways, I like the ZL1. However, as Ford did with the 5.0 vs SS, the GT500 rapes it in all categories. The fat Camaro does NOT look nearly as menacing as the GT500.

The Camaro/Firebird line has always been bigger and heavier than the Mustang.

I like the lines of the GT500 better, especially how sleek it looks with the spoiler.

I think the Camaro looks too gaudy. The Mustang has more of a subtle beauty IMHO.
For me, it's the slammed roofline of the Camaro...it's not a car tall guys fit in well.
Then there is the "Government Motors" thing...the way the GM bondholders were given the shaft with the Government takeover.
In a traditional corporate bankruptcy, the bondholders go to the head of the line when assets are sold. In the government takeover, the bondholders got frozen out. Many of these were mom & pop investors, average folks counting on the bond interest to add to their social security.
Their bonds became worthless...
For this reason alone, I'll never consider a GM product. Yes, it was why I bought a Mustang.

Have you sat in one? I have. I'm not especially tall. Just six foot, but I have 34" inseam. I sat in a 6 speed manual car, put the seat all the way back and angled the seat almost straight vertical (my preferred seating position). I could not push the peddle to the end of it's travel and I had 4-5 inches above my head. Tall people can easily drive this car unless they are freakishly tall.

I think this is my favorite post over at Camaro5 in the Camaro vs.. board;
Some of those guys have their head shoved so far up their bowtie asshole it's not even funny.

I have driven in one. I am 6ft and there is plenty of headroom, even with the moonroof. However. The car is a complete PITA to see out off. Terrible if you were to track it, IMHO.
I agree. The obstructions were massive. And I was just sitting still at an auto show.
