firebird vs camaro

im thinking of buying the base model of fire bird or the base model of camaro.. both 2000 ... anyways.. i like the firebird look better than camaro.. which one is faster? which one do u guys prefer more?

They're the same car with a somewhat diffeent body and interior

What he said.

yea, they are same exact car just a lil diffrent on the body design.

firebird is a little more luxury too... but really just pick whatever you you liek better. What are the options on each?

Yup, both same car, same motor, just depends on what body style you prefer.

:iagree:

No, they both are the same, no one is more luxiourious than the other, its just the body style that you like. I think that Firebirds are more of a grl car than a guys because its more stylish, BUT im not saying anything here, it's just what I think of it. :lol:

m taking back the whole body style thing for now... what oprions are on each one? ex. auto or manual, does it have the RPO code y87?

yea, so why does Luos have a bird? hmm.... his i have and girl friend and she lives with me story isnt adding up to well...

I say take the Camaro if it has option code number Z22 or Z28.

they already told you plenty of times, personally the exterior on the maro kills the firebird unless you decide for the ram air option.

WS6 > all.

Uh.. incase you didnt know. WS.6 = SS, and I personally think Camaros are more aerodynamic than Firebirds, but I havent seen any graphs or numbers that show this, but by the way they look. Also Camaros are a little lighter than Firebirds by like 5 pounds. :lol:

Caught again. :uhoh:

No, pontiac is more luxury than chevrolet and the firebirds reflect that over the camaros

Also Camaros are a little lighter than Firebirds by like 5 pounds. :lol:Depending on which year but most years of 4th Gens. The Formula is a the lightest out of all the V8 F-bodys. As for aerodynamics, each have argued it but if one is over the other do you think its by a figure that would matter that much as to cause one to smoke the other?. They are the same exact cars. Everything on these cars is the same but a few body panels and a few interior pieces like has been stated a million times so far. Pick what you like and buy it, neither is better or worse than the other. Good luck in your search

Ah.. shaddup. You're just representing what Fbody you got. The Formula, well I know I represented what style I got thats why I told him to get code number Z22 :lol:

Damn, I love this sig, it's so simple yet awesome looking to me. I sound like I have my head up my ass.

:lol:

Caught again. :uhoh:

yep.

yep.
Oh well. :eek7:

tip.. if you want more performance, don't bother with base models :smile:

Im sure he just wants a newer Camaro because he likes the one he currently has.

well in real life the ws6 was rated a bit faster than the ss i dont remember why but i know i have it in one of my gm hightech mag's, ill have to find it. but if they are both v6 cars im sure they are the same. but now and days no matter what model u get they all have some years on them so they arent running what they use to so get the car u think is in better shape and seems to be taken care of

^Exactly WS.6s were said to have higher HP than SS but they're exactly the same.

Any stock LS1 car can beat another on the right day.

and that is the honest to god truth.... some ls1 cars are freaks from the factory... what i use to say all the time.....its the day your car was made! some days were just good days, others were days people didnt feel like being at work and some things were done a bit differently that day that made those cars a bit slower.

"Hm.. I dont feel good today, im not going to polish this head nicely.. screw it."

:lol:

and thats how it is in real life. yes its a line where alot of things are done by computers, but people put the parts together by hand on some parts of that line. one day the guy doing your heads could have had a 3 some with 2 hot chicks so he had a champion type day at work, and the next day u get the guy who's wife just told him shes cheating on him..what kind of work u think u will be getting from that guy on that day?? sure wont be the 3 some dudes type work ill tell u that! thats just why some cars come out as freaks, and others come out as dud's

I thought that said "... and some come out as audi's" hahahahahahahhaha

^HAHAHA I thought so too, had to reread. :rofl:

But Philly thats how the Ls2 is for the Vette. HANDBUILT! Thats awesome.

I myself am a Camaro guy. I briefly owned an older model Formula and it was one of those freaks from the factory. It was a stock-as-hell HP305 that was just unreal. It blew away almost everything that pulled up next to me. If you go Pontiac, my vote would be for a WS-6. All the others look cheaply built to me. Something about the design just doesn't jive. I currently drive a '94 LT-1 Z-28 which I love the looks and performance of. I also kinda like the idea that it was one of the last years for the old style small blocks.
Unless you park on the street, be aware of those ground effects. I don't even have them and I drag that dang ABS plastic air dam thing on just about every driveway I pull into. All you can do is cringe when it happens, because if you hit the brakes you'll send the nose down even harder. I can just imagine pulling too close to a parking curb and breaking that $1,000 piece of plastic to bits.

Have fun with whatever you decide.

^ About that, whenever you pull into a driveway or something of a dip, turn your tires in any which direction, so your tires go first and not the front of the car, believe me it works.

u wanna talk about low, ill have to get a side pic of my car...its nuts, parked next to my friends vett they sit about even, now thats sick...even funnier will be when i put those long tune headers on her...im hoping the car will do ok when it comes to driving over speed bumps and stuff

Eh.. you got the body kit on yours Philly, I thought MY car was low though, if yours sits next to a Vette even.. damn.

My '78 Camaro is pretty low. I can't clear a pop can on it's side if that is any indication. I had to have the collector flanges cut off and welded solid because I kept dragging up sewer lids. Just got sick of replacing gaskets and cussing at the city road works.
I am not the low-rider type, more of the hot rodder type so I put air shocks in the back to give it a little bit of a rake. Not backhills redneck Dodge rake, but more gentle. I thought it looked cool anyway.
Actually I was speaking from experience. I cracked the plastic on the nose parking too close to a tall curb. Man I was mad. As for approaching at an angle - that is something I learned a long time ago. Every once in a while though, I forget and think I am driving my truck and come into one head on in my '94 Z-28. I hate that sound. Everybody always looks up cringes and shakes their head like I just crunched some gears or something.

yeah and u know whats nuts, im putting long tube headers on my car....this will be fun

let me know how that works out for you, i want my car low like yours, and i also want long tube headers.

I want my Monte low like a Vette, that is AFTER I put on the body kit.

yea, putting a body kit on after your shit is as low as a vette would be stupid since it would be draging the ground, wont even have to worry about cracking it if you hit a bump to hard becasue it will prob just rip right off the car.

Haha yeah, I cant wait to buy the body kit though.. complete with the spoiler. :)

No problems with that unless you get SLP longtubes.

no i went with jet hot.

no i went with jet hot.
Coated hookers.

i think the camaro was built better in 2000, i got in a on the showroom floor camaro, and shut the door and all was good, i got into the firebird next to it and when i shut the door the whole damnd thin rattled like crazy, other than that theyre the exact same car. with a different stylist.

rememebr way back in the day(4month ago) when i was looking for headers for the 3800 i wanted hooker's. i love them but my boy has jethot and they come coated also and for the price they are sweet. i figured i would try them out, but hooker is what i know.
