keep the Z

I think the majority of T/A's I see are ugly and rarely give them more then a glance, an LS1 Z on the other hand, well it grabs and keeps my attention.

Funny you say this...

I had a 98 Z28 with around 20,000 and ended up buying a 02 WS.6.

What it comes down to is the looks, because both of'em have the same performance and handling...

I think they are different in looks. The WS.6 is really bold and aggressive looking. The Z28 is really sleek and smooth. So ask yourself, do you want something that stands out or do you want something that is more mild looking and kind of fits in with the crowd?

The camaro is bad ass, but I think the frontend on the WS.6 is priceless. There's no car in the world that resembles it.

I couldn't agree with this more. They're both sexy, in different ways. It's simply a matter of preference. The TA body is flashier and curvier, like someone who gets in your face and screams, and the Camaro is more subtle, like someone who will calmly smile while they destroy you.

I love f-bodies. :)drive

Initially, I wanted a WS6 for that very reason. :smt045 But then my boyfriend was wanting to sell his Camaro and he offered it to me for what he owed on it (a lot less than any for sale), a deal I couldn't resist. So I sold my Sentra and got the Z28.

I'd still love a clean 2001/2002 WS6. Or a Firehawk. A Blackbird TA is my holy grail but they're so rare.
