if you're keeping the camaro, i'd go with a firebird instead of another camaro.

yeah firebird. and since its a sorta commute car i'd get a trans am. seriously, ive been considering keeping my TA stock cuz its such a nice daily driver as it is, then modding my camaro. the suspension is so much smoother, the seats are so much more comfy in the trans am.

the trans am it out of the question, even though id love to have one, this possibily-future f-body of mine (reguardless of which one) is going to have to be a 6 banger because it has to get good milage, (above or around 25). although, sice you cant do very much with a 3.4 or 3.8 v6, i will be looking to mod it appearence-wise. (hood, wheels, clear corners, tinted windows, white gauges, etc)

I wish people gave me f bodys.. heh damn winter making me get a 4x4 vechicle. Maby ill magically get a WRX or EVo so I can fly around on the snow. Anyway, I say go for a firebird they are badass.

Sinister95Z 12-23-2005 05:44 AM

I say go for one of each. One Camaro and one Bird.

I got the same milage with my 3rd gen v8 as I did my 3rd gen v6 (I haven't owned a 4th gen yet)

well im not sure about your 3rd gen but mine gets 12 mpg, i highly doubt(no offense here) that a 3.4 or 3.8 v6 gets 12 mpg, they almost have to be higher

my 350 in my 3rd gen got 18, so did the 2.8, so does the 3.8 in the gp (the bravada gets 15) the 305 does get worse (it's underpowered for the weight of the car)

you only get 18mpg in your grand prix? I get like mid-high 20s.

meissen 12-25-2005 02:30 PM

I'm lucky if I get more than 16mpg in my 3.4.

I'd say one of each, just because that'd be cool to have a collection going. But, the more I thought about it, if it's going to be a v6 and you're going to do appearance mods, go with a Camaro... You can't barely do anything to a Firebird compared to the Camaro.

my gp is supercharged, and has a cam, that kills milage a bit

you cant really compare that to a n/a 3.8 then.

I never did, my 3rd gen had a 2.8 (and 7 injectors gm's wonderful idea that failed)
