making the switch to a Z, but have a concern

Hey Mike,

You gave me a few tips on the Camaro when I was in the market back in '11. I ended up with a Z of course. They're both nice cars. I think they both look sexy except the Z is hands down nicer on the inside. I think offering two engine packages is fine. After it all it gets more of them produced and that increases parts availability (benefits the Camaro more

). But to me it wouldn't matter what other people do and I couldn't care less. If they offered a 4 banger 370Z (maybe a 120Z lol) who cares...I just wouldn't buy it. I think Transformers really helped Camaro sales...

The Z is a great car. I wanted an automatic so the choice was obvious because the AT in the Z is wonderful. I have another manual car to play with and the Z is my commuter. Watch for possible oil consumption issues on '09-'10 models but not all of them have this issue. My '11 doesn't burn oil at all and has treated me well. Heck, it still has the new car smell.

thanks for you comment.

i want a car that is not so typical, and common. thats what i am going now. fast, sexy, rare. and of course affordable .

also, most after market parts are sold to v8 owners. so the fact that there is v6s and v8s. do not do much for after market. only GM parts.
