What non-GM car would you consider replacing your 6th Gen with if you had to?

I’m curious on this one. It seems dollar for dollar there aren’t many cars out there that can match the 6th Gen in performance.. ..but if you didn’t get a C7 or C8, ZL1 or 1LE … what other cars would you consider?

Perhaps a used GT 350/350R, M2 or maybe even the new Z, I just have a thing for Zs. I would still rather keep 1LE though.

I'm with Camaro fanboy on this one. If something happened to my car, I'd try to find another 2018 2SS or ZL1 in the same color and customize/build it to the "street reasonable" maximum, then enjoy it forever. Many good cars exist, but there is nothing out there that replicates this experience.

One more thing, if gm ever releases the software for our cars (extremely unlikely, but just as a thought experiment), I'll fix all the small bugs and add some enhancements to the DIC and infotainment.

I would only replace my SS with a ZL1. I have no interest in anything else either that is non GM. The only other car I'd consider would be a Vett. (C7 GS)

Hellcat demon or Redeye. Inside the GM family, my next choice would be the CT5 Blackwing.

If any other car interested me, I would have bought it instead of the Camaro. It's Camaro or nothing.

No brands other than GM. Too old to think about a C8, maybe another C7.
