You need to photoshop a horrible accident at the end of the thread direction arrow. That would be much more accurate.

^^^^ hahahhah

Red370 10-25-2009 06:30 PM

haha, that was good. I needed that. As far as trims go, yeah, more V6's around here than anything, which makes absolutely no sense to me, why would you buy a muscle car without the muscle? still wondering why people drive V6 Mustangs.

fairladyZ34 10-25-2009 06:32 PM

a v6 camaro is like a I4 Z, just a stupid idea

theDreamer 10-25-2009 06:33 PM

I could see myself buying a V6 American muscle if I got it cheap enough to drive to and from work as a beater car. In the end though I can find better deals though with more versatility.

nogoodname 10-25-2009 06:38 PM

Just wait 6 months and get a used one.
Like 10k off or more......lol

Agreed, thats another thing, those things will not hold their value at all.

No.

The V6 variations of the Camaro and Mustang are the volume sellers. The V8s are the enthusiast versions. Essentially, the V6s keep the V8s in business.

fairladyZ34 10-25-2009 07:08 PM

^true.
i guess the sentra is our volume seller

Money? Besides, have you seen the specs of those V6's? They are decent engines for the buck! And if you look at the sales figures of past years, there were plenty of V6's sold in any iteration of Camaros, Firebirds, Mustangs..

I see more Maximas than any other Nissan. Saw a 350Z today! I swear they and 370's are extinct around here.

We can be smug that our Z's won't be in the repair shop all the time because they weren't assembled by overpaid UAW workers who didn't know if they would have a job the next day. Also, when I look at the recalls that the American Big Three have had over the years for some pretty serious issues, it's another reason to stay away from a Camaro or Mustang.

BobDigi5060 10-25-2009 08:06 PM

^^Every car can have minor problems. The 350s had clutch/tranny problems along with oil consumption issues. Nissan had recalls for the 350 and Murano concerning tire feathering and engine cooling. Don't forget about the GTRs launch control. Overpaid workers doing a halfarse job is only an asumption.

You can't even safely track a stock 370. Have you heard of any Camaro, Mustang or Challengers being tracked only to more or less overheat sending the car into limpmode?

To stay on topic I've seen 3 Camaros on the street and two at a rental car place downtown. Good looking car IMO.

No the Camaro does not over heat, but it does:
~Battery issue
~Grill cracking
~Transmission output shaft issue

The manual transmission models of the new Camaros are having issues...recall / stop-production level issues.

Sorry, I would have not done this, but when people come in here and say sh1t like that about the Z and defend a car with major problems without research it are going to get this. I could have posted the full list of items, I think at one point the list was 65 items that had more than 10 people report issues, half of the list GM verified saying you might run into this problem.

I will say they are fixing all the issues, people are not having to fight to have them repaired, but it is a bit much.

Matt 10-25-2009 08:29 PM

My comment was misinterpreted. I was just pointing out that every car has issues, so no one should be presuming the Camaro is any less perfect than the Z. Different cars for different people.

I just remember going to the G37 forums when I was choosing between the G37 and the Z, and seeing the first 2-3 pages FILLED with problems being encountered in 2009 G37 coupe.

nogoodname 10-25-2009 08:31 PM

Look at all the lurkers, they like shit in the fan


IBTL !!!

theDreamer 10-25-2009 08:31 PM

Oh I agree, every car has problems, but when you see a list of 60+ items I start to wonder what is going on. The Z has had its problems, but most have been minor.

shumby 10-25-2009 08:39 PM

5 pages of loling

Red370 10-25-2009 08:45 PM

Guys, in all honesty, I love this forum. Just figured i'd add that. And by the way, I call your AMC and raise you a Yugo!

theDreamer 10-25-2009 08:46 PM

I take your Yugo and up you with a Pinto.

shumby 10-25-2009 08:47 PM

call your pinto and raise you a lada

nogoodname 10-25-2009 08:49 PM

Call ur lada and raise u a Camel
