I Need you help guys Camaro vs c7 - Page 2

BrianL · 08-29-2017, 08:05 AM

Buy the C7 Omen! I wouldn't wait for the Camaro to come in.

But you mentioned the Camaro's imported are somehow different or modified to adapt to your hot climate? Is the C7 modified the same way?

Richard0nee · 08-29-2017, 09:05 AM

If they are similar priced.. get the Vette hands down. But a C7 Stingray w/ Z51 is almost $25k-30k more than my SS so the SS was a no brainer. When my SS is paid off, I'll get a used C7 Z06 or C8.. Why not have both?

My car next to a Z06.. Z06 from the back is MEAN. And I love the SS from the rear as well.

All new cars that go to a different county have to be modified to meet that country's emissions and safety regulations.

I have a C7 2015 2LT and Camaro 2017 2SS. Both very good cars but if I had to pick only one to keep it would be the C7.

Software Guy · 08-29-2017, 09:49 AM

C7 hands down. It's my next car.

If you do not need the back seat and extra room the Camaro offers and don't mind sitting a little lower, gen the C7. It offers better performance and the depreciation will be much less. Maintenance should be the same- it's not a BMW or Mercedes where maintenance is extremely high by comparison.

solarstingray · 08-29-2017, 10:49 AM

I owned both, go for the c7 but the Camaro ss is nice also,

mjross · 08-29-2017, 05:58 PM

I own both and I'm really diggin the SS! However, it is hard to deny a C7. They are both amazing cars but for different reasons.

greaser2 · 08-29-2017, 06:37 PM

I sold my 2014 3LT C7 and got a 2017 ZL1. I love Camaro's but the C7 is better even though it's not a apples to apples comparison.

devnull · 08-29-2017, 06:46 PM

I've owned C7's and now have an SS 1LE. Love that 1LE, even declined a C7 trade offer for it (wasn't the right one). You can't go wrong, but here is my personal preference order...

2SS
Stingray (non Z51)
1LE
Z51
GS
ZR1
ZR1 1LE
Z06

McLaren P1

In order for a full size person to sit in them the drivers seat will need to be moved way forward.

naaah we r quite short lol im 5.8, brothers around 5.5 and 5.9
