If There Was No Camaro...

What car would be on your list of your next new car? We used to talk about what Camaro buyers thought of as thier other choice, but lets hear it from some enthusiast as for what would have been your choice had if it wasnt for Camaro?
Or what if Camaro is in the running along with another car? What is it, or what are they?

If it wasnt for Camaro, Id think about a G8 V6 Sport or an Astra XR 3dr with performance package.

If there was no Camaro I'd get a 6 speed Challenger or the new Mustang GT (if it really gets 400hp).

I would keep my '02 Camaro, buy a used GTO, or maybe save up for a Vette.

The new Camaro does not appeal to me, so a G8 GT is currently at the top of my shopping list.

Unfortuantely for me, Camaro isn't even on my list anymore... basic life changes (married, kids, etc) since 2002 have moved me past the point of owning a 2-door sports car daily driver. If there was a Camaro availble between 2003 and now, I almost certainly would have had at least one of themover that time.

At this point, a car like that is only for weekend/toy status, and I cuurently have that slot filled.

I would have said CTS, but I just bought one. Other than that, G8 GT or maybe splurge on a new 'vette.

I'd run my Cobalt into the ground, and then pick up a Volt.
Camaro is really the only sports car I care to consider owning.

And when the time comes for you to sell said toy, you ARE going to contact me.........right????

For me, Vette, Shelby GT (used), or classic muscle.
