just for fun, i was wondering what's the better car:
trans am or camaro? Confused

pontiac vs chevy. Cool

try to be factual here. Wink

just based on factory specs and options, no aftermarket add ons, or special edition "one of kind" cars, what's the best third gen?

lets try not to argue Smashy Smashy

....

i ask because there seem to be a lot of different options and trim packages available for these cars.
firebirds, se, trans am, formula, gta, rs, iroc, etc.......

what do you guy think?

Chris and i came to the conclusion the other day that if you are going for pure performance.... TTA all the way. however he also mentioned that was ONLY because the "ZR1" heritage edition anniversary Camaro was never released to the general public. to wit i replied

if you discount the TTA because it uses a Buick power plant then the firehawk.

ok, what is a DZ? was it factory in thirdgens? if not it does not count. Cool

Dewey316 · Posted: Fri Apr 06, 2007 12:22 pm Post subject:

no, it was an option on 69 z/28's.

I'm just saying...

Xophertony · Posted: Fri Apr 06, 2007 12:25 pm Post subject:

oh.. well in that case, an LS6 powered formula. Wink

Dewey316 · Posted: Fri Apr 06, 2007 12:29 pm Post subject:

When did a formula ever leave the factory with an LS6? As close as I am aware, the only thing close was some 01-02 cars, that got LS6 intakes, but never the full LS6 treatment.

TTA....is that a touring trans am? Confused

other than that, the '69 z/28 doesn't count, nor does the LS6.

let's keep it to 3rd gens.

other than "beef" under the hood, what about other options?

The TTA is the turbo trans-am, it had a 3.8L Turbo 6cyl. they are bloody fast.

I am partial to the Camaro with GFX's but I do like the GTA's.

The Camaro and Firebird are the same car. The only difference between them is cosmetic and interior trim features. So the question of which one is better is simply a matter of preference.

The only exception is the '89 turbo Trans Am (TTA) with the 3.8L Buick turbo engine. I guess another exception is the SLP built Firehawk sold through dealerships. Hmmm.... I guess the Firebird was a better car. Very Happy
