Camaro or corvette
What would be the best buy here. A 2007 corvette auto with 60k miles or a 2010-11camaro ls3 with 40k miles
Who would win in a race as well? Im in the market for a new car. 2013 5.0 caught my attentions but id rather a chevy

I'd say they would be beck in neck. Your basic break down is would you want a newer car with less milage and more reliability or the sports car with sweet looks? IMO unless the corvette was 09' or 10' and newer I'd get the camaro.

depends on the price on each one. they are totally different cars. what are you objectives? do you need 4 seats? this is such an ambigious question, there is no way anyone here could advise you. alot depends on you and what you want and how much you want to pay

No I dont need 4 seats. I am 21, about to graduate and go to medical or PA school (applying for both so hopefully I get in) and since the accident I ensured on my v6, I am now forced to look for cars. Im stuck in the 20-25k range and I want a v8. I have the money so now financing. I have found some 2010 camaros for that,2011s, some 06-07 vettes(auto), and a 2013 5.0.
I know these are all the same speed wise, but what do you think is easiest to mod for the price. Something keepa pulling me to the vette even though its an ls2

Comparing a 5th gen to a vette is like comparing a huffy to a nasa rocket

Hows the ease of modding on the ls2 vettes? Also I know plenty about the ls3 maros, and I know they are pretty sturdy. Hows the maintenence on them? 05-07 vettes

 Have never owned a Corvette, but looking into them off & on. The one constant thing people have always mentioned since I was a kid was that there is a Corvette tax for when you need repairs/maintenance items. Nobody has ever mentioned specifics other than anything they need cost more. Something to keep in mind if you are still in school. |
