I test drove the 2015 when looking at vehicles before purchasing my Z, every one talks about the "backseat." I didn't get into the back, but the front was more cramped than my Z. I'm 6' 200Lbs so not a big guy but not a small one either. Not knocking it just a little surprised to have a harder time getting in and out of an American muscle car versus a imported sports car.

When I think of the back of the Camaro. I think of throwing shut back there. Not people. Set up a rifle rack for the AR or AK. For long road trips n such.

This article shows how drastically improved the Camaro is. Great side by side shots.

I don't know how bad it would be if the Z34 was the last for a little while, the prices on the Z32 got pretty strong when the Z was discontinued. That could benefit all these guys wanting to jump in a Camero or Porsche

Some how your last sentence does not vibe, camaro and Porsche does not belong in the same sentence

Spstone · 11-18-2015, 07:07 PM

^^^^ often the cars of discussion of switching too. Than again I don't think a Z and a camero are in the same class yet here we are.

Don't care how much faster the new or previous camaro is it will always be a ponycar to me ford GM are on my forbidden "stay away" pos car list besides the C7 ...to where as the Z is a true 2door sports car. Also the Z is considered a "poors man Porsche", which in turn is an excellent complement...don't hear that with a camaro.

Spstone · 11-19-2015, 01:39 AM

With financing options now, in reality the C7 has become so common I'll lump it in with the pony cars. Yea in all reality with out a lot of work I'm not keeping up with it, but I bet you see a lot more of them than my Z. As much as I love performance, I don't race any longer so being a little different to me is more important than being the fastest.

I've heard the Z called the poor mans Porsche, but I've never had a Z owner be has big of a pain in the *** as a Porsche owner so I'd rather not be thrown in that class either.

Too many new sports cars to have the same effect of the 90's. With Mazda coming with a car, Toyota, Fiat, Alfa I believe is working on a 40k sport car. The Camaro driving like a tuner car. Our Z's will not hold anything.
When the Z32 went up in value was because ALL 5, Japanese sports cars disappeared pretty much in one shot. Leaving a camaro, mustang, miata and vette as your only real affordable option over 8 years. And the Camaro left at the 4th year. Then when the Z and Rx8 came in it sparked some type of hype. But we're all N/A cars.
This time around... We have LOTS OF WAYS TO GO... New or used. It won't be a repeat of the 90's. So don't hold ur breath. N remember the real value were in the turbo cars, not so much the N/A imports. Everything is going turbo. So that fascination is being quelled with availability.

If we don't make a new sports car that's affordable. Nissan will lose sales to anyone with a hot affordable halo car. Toyota n Mazda will steal Nissan customers.
