If I had the money and had to choose between new...corvette, hands down. Don't get me wrong, I have been a camaro guy for a l-o-n-g time, but the camaro and vette...apples to oranges. In my opinion, the vette is just in a different class.

The vette is a better handling car in all respects, faster, quicker and sexier. Unless you get a "rare" Camaro there is no reason whatsoever to get a Camaro over a vette. Aftermarket for the vette is so much better than for Camaros, although quite a bit more pricey.

It's a good question -- what are the reasons to buy a 'Vette over a Camaro? Apart from looks and more power, you can have the same power, or get there with changes to a Camaro.

It would be good to see a pro/con list of Camaro vs Vette, but yea, it's too early to do the comparison right -- specs aren't out yet for the new Camaro...

I would LOVE to see a car magazine review the NEW Camaro with the current year 'Vette -- it will be interesting to see what they say in comparison...

all a camaro is, is a poor mans vette. if i had the option for a z06 vette or a z28 camaro? both 2009? id take the vette in a heart beat. its lighter, faster, the f*cker has the transmission in the back for perfrect weight distrubution, it has an aluminum frame and a 500 naturally aspirated horsepower engine. in a perfect world i would buy the vette, however... this is not a perfect world and i cannot afford a vette which is why im gonna buy the camaro. keep in mind the camaro is for the majority of people... whereas the vette is for a select few.
