There have been a number of posts here about "nine second cars". Let's get real. There aren't many of them out there that aren't race cars, or very thinly disguised ones. That applies to imports and domestics. Heck, how many street cars do you see in the 10's? Anyway, not sure why I hopped on that bandwagon.

ive owned them both.. I have had a handful of camaro's and 2 dsm's.. i curently own a camaro and a 92 laser fwd turbo. You can make both go relativly fast for relativly cheap.. but once you wand the low 11 or high 10 second slip i think the camaro is cheaper to get there. just my opinion. and for the dsm's and crank walk.. that is in the second gens not the first gens.

If you disagree, then you obvioulsy have never ridden in one or seen the build quality...down to the body panels the fit is SO perfect that it will never ever rattle or squeek like 99% of american cars do:
German cars yes. Italian cars, no. If you think Italian cars have no rattles and perfect alignment, I think you need to actually take a look at one. Dont get me wrong, my top two dream cars are both Italian
