I hope that I get the oppurtunity 2 test drive both of them : )
J.J., you need the V6 for a work `ride
&
the SS for a Fun/Fast `ride

Member's, would you purchase a first year produced Model ?
I heard on the Radio this morn'in that there is already
a recall on the Camaro V8 for starter problems.. : (

I still @ present luv the design of the Camaro, and `if I had
one, I would want the Monster V -8......4-Sure!

What other models would you like to see the Camaro tested against ?
think it was a pretty decent article, but I wish there
were more vehicles tested with it, or against it

I liked several of the feature's on the Genesis....
They stated the seats in the Camaro R large, & I'm only `bout
150 lbs wet, carry'in a case of beer : ), & seat position is important 2 me.,
plus I like the high `Rev's....V6 Camaro needs a Turbo : )

Time will Tell, or Prove it Quality & Reliability
GM, thanks U 4 Creating/proDucing.
It's been a long wait...

I'd get a first year production. There is always going to be problems with cars no matter when they come out. The main thing is to have one.

The camaro's also have wheel weights attached to the caliper's until they come up with something new.

Having a first year production for a garage and for value is great, but if it's going to be my driver, I'd rather wait a couple of years. (67 and 69 come to mind) Collectors like their 67's and the general public likes the 69.

The Camaro definitely looks better. I would pass on the 1st year also. I bought an early 05 Mustang and I had lots of problems.

I'd rather have a Camaro personally, but I will say this, I'm extremely excited that my girlfriend wants a Genesis. I can't wait to drive it, however, that won't be for a few years. Which could pay off.
