For everything you get it's pretty fvckin amazing. Honestly I can't see a vette being a better value at that coin. U gotta buy the vette cuz u love vette when compared to a ZL1.

To be honest if the Camaro didn't get a much needed facelift and total redesign I would never even look at it twice. The last gen was just awful looking and only a good driving car in the 1le or z28 form.

Now with the new look and performance I agree it's most certainly a contender against the vette in terms of bang for your buck and fun. Same exact engine and suspension just a different look and little more/less weight.

Personally if given the choice of a new vette or new Camaro I'm going vette. However with the ZL1 monster being around the same price as a z51 vette with 200 more hp it's a toss up lol

Considering the weight difference on the camaro 6 and c7 z06 is negligible. I'd say camaro all day long. I know the GS is tempting at that price. But the 10 speed auto is crazy. I think the tranny in the camaro is gonna cause corvette owners to be tight if they don't get grips on the 10 soon? I'm sure it takes camaro performance to the next level. That said... So many cars excite me. But none have made me as emotional as the Z.

and because the Z is such a raw and real driving experience, I don't need another two seater and therefore the wife may need a camaro before long lol!

Definitely a solid point there.
