I hate the Camaro due to the high beltline and lack of visibility. Terrible design IMO.


Granted I haven't driven one on track yet, but the visibility, seating position, etc of the GT350 was much better. And the sound of that motor at 8,200RPM is pretty damn awesome. Turn in and grip of the GT350 is pretty damn amazing. Turn in is about as sharp and quick as the BRZ which is crazy considering it's massive bulk.


I just don't have the cash for one with the markups and shit and even at MSRP that would be more than I want to spend on a car.
