370 debate on Camaro board

[Joker57676]

I am on both of the boards and that discussion is making me laugh my *** off. There's one guy claiming the Camaro SS will out-handle both the 370Z and the Vette. Now that's being optimistic.

So basically, that member is saying the Camaro can hang with a Porsche Cayman S then... because the 370Z certainly does...

GM would create such a beautiful beast...
I only trust the early american cars.
Gonna have to wait a little then I'll trust!
I want to see the camaro do some corners.
I'm very interested...

Yea one guy said the early production was .93G's on the Skidpad for the Camaro I doubt that it will get better then that. Also stated that if it is .93G's that the .06G diff is negligible lol.

Noooooooooooo......that's called: Not facing reality!

[CrownR426]

Nah, just let them buy the Camaro.
It'll help our economy at least!

People still care about stop light racing? I thought that fad ended when you graduate high school.
Who cares who wins in a straight line.

Real cars go around turns, long straights are for planes to take off.

Agreed (bc I am a pilot.)

I love the Camaro; it looks great, has a ton of power, and the interior's not bad. However, it weighs too much, the tires are too skinny, the body rolls a lot, and it won't be nearly as fun as the Z will be.

While I cannot make any statements of fact, I would imagine 99% of the Camaro board has never been on a road course. Once you've tracked a proper sports car, there's no going back to straightline BSing. I never got the thrill of stumping on the gas for a few seconds and calling it quits (perhaps I just don't properly understand it). There is just so much more to driving.

PS: I have only been considering two cars for my upcoming purchase SS or Z: just conversing on that board has made my mind up for me (forgetting I'm more of a two seat sports car person anyway); its Z all the way.

Gave me a good laugh too. I was really looking forward to reading some responses to my post, but since there were none except for the above quote (nice job LiquidZ/Rekt), I guess it really did fly over their heads.

I'm glad you all are getting a kick out of my posts hahaha

I'm just waiting for them to come over here trying to bash our Z. I'll apologize ahead of time admins...

Well you have a way of speaking what is true which is evading their simple American made biased minds. I was raised on muscle cars but the second I saw what the imports were capable of I quickly became an import minded enthusiast. They will realize what the z is capable of when they come across one on the road and get their asses handed to them in a very fashionable embarrasing way. I myself can't wait to accomplish this embarrasment.

2010 Chevy Camaro SS: 0-60 in 4.6 Seconds

Seems to me edmunds already got some SS numbers no??

The link i provided show some numbers

0-60 in 4.9, 60-0 in 117ft, .90g skid, 1/4 mile 13.4

Hmm looks like the Z has it beat in certain areas...... braking, 0-60, skid, and 1/4 mile

but then again ...this is probably a pre production test car so i dont know?
