Camaro 35th Edition or Firebird Special Edition? ***!!!Updated with Pics!!!***

[Time2Kill]

Which one should I get?

I found a dealer that has a 6 speed Camaro 35th Special Edition. But from what I hear, a Firebird is a better daily driver. And they are both the same price loaded (within $1000 of each other). And they both have the same engine and weight practically the same weight (about 50lb difference)

So what do you guys recommend?

Which one do you think looks better?

I'm personally partial to the Camaro as I like its smooth looks a little better, but I've seen some beautiful TA's as well...

BTW it's almost in the single digits outside, I'm gonna stay in this thread and stay warm. I got lots of TP too

I always liked the looked of the Camaro's over the Firebird. Essentially, they are the same car though. They'll drive the same, have the same acceleration, etc -- looks are what will seperate them.

The 35th Anniversary Firebird rims looked riced out to me - there's a limit to what color your rims can be, and it should not be neon blue.

I'm partial to TA myself. Saw a beautiful red one at a dealer the other day.

Oh man, dude, why are you buying a crappy American car?
Get a 1989 Honda Civic 4 door with a "Type-R" sticker on it and it will suck that TA up!

The Collectors Firebird TA only comes in Yellow

I'll probably go with the Camaro, I like the looks better and would rather have a red car, than a yellow

In accordance with ATOT rules, all car threads must mention Maxima or Altima. :disgust:

Now we got that out of the way, go with what exterior you like better, they are otherwise identical.

I'm partial to Camaros, if you can't tell. I think it has more history, pedigree, etc....

Go for the older Turbo Firebirds/TransAm with the Turbo 3.8L V6..mmm....fastest car in its time (and still damn fast now!).

Or if you must go new, then go for the Firebird...in Fire Red. mm...5.7L of V8 goodness....

No Maxima or Altima here.

I like the Sunfire... Costs less and it feels the same once you're sitting in it.

I thought the rule was: Camaro for guys, Firebirds for gals.

Aside from the taillight treatment, I prefer the Firebird... like vi_edit said, get it in black and it looks badass!

Bingo!

Enough is enough! :disgust:

I didnt post this message so you all could talk about foreign crap, you can make your own thread for that

I think they are just playing with you.

But anyway...how about looking at a used Corvette? Like a 3 year old Corvette?
