Geez, I think people are getting a little touchy on this. I used to love Camaros, but I guess thats becuase I never really paid much attention to Firebirds. When I started car shopping I looked at many cars, and stumbled across a Firebird. I said to myself "Wow, I like this car a lot more then a Camaro." So I ended up with a Firebird. But, this certainly doesn't mean I hate Camaros. I see people bashing Firebirds and Camaros here like they are ***** peices of $hit. If you like Firebirds, then own a firebird........if you like Camaros, then own a Camaro (if you have the money and like both then own both ). In the end, they are basically all the same under the skin. CANT WE ALL JUST GET ALONG!!!!!

Wow camaro6spd really want's this to get locked, hmm
Is he felling a little inferrior (nah)
Chill bro, when everyone has got there just do, it will be over.
Since we are still discussing which car is better(Camaro) it is not deviated from the orignal poll
My opinion, Camaro. I have owned both, the Bird does have a nicer interior with more options, but...
I like the simplicity of the camaro, all gauges right there, stuff like that. But the Bird seats are way more comfy. Thats why they are in my Camaro now...

actually, camaro6speed is not being a ****head, nor would I consider him a disgrace. hehehe..he is actually trying to keep the peace.... and coming from a camaro owner, that shows some maturity.. And yeah, this post should be closed. I believe you are getting off to all this bull**** KJ. This is not the first, or the last stupid poll that has had this as a subject. Why dont you go and use this board for something constructive, and not destructive. Christmas is over, so..... stop instagating the situation....

I just believe that in order for the peace to be made, all the issues must be laid out.
I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote the other message, I think I had a little too much Christmas Cheer (if ya know what I mean)
Anyways, if the moderator Feels that it needs to be locked, by all means, lock it.
What I do see though, is that all Third-genners have very strong attractions/protection to/for their vehicals.
Because we don't agree on who has a better interior or style, or body style, so what, that is normal. A Marriage wouldn't work if there wern't any disagreements. We all still share a common bond, and for that we will always get along.

86street your car is the perfect exapmle of trailor trash thirdgen, my almost bone stock (with the exception of complete exahaust and CIA)85 LB9 would probably rip your *** right out of the hole, but im not the type to beat on my car so it really doesnt matter. Just keep ur mouth shut and dont even show reguards to me whenever u see my name in a post or n e where else, i dont like dealing with little kids with ragity looking cars.
to sum this up(onse again) i agree that both cars are nice equally in different ways, all i am saying is GM made firebird to be the nicer car, persoanl opinion for people may be otherwise but thats how GM wanted it. I an not saying i hate camaros(as i did in earlier post), like said before firebirds are sleek and smooth as if waiting to mess something up and i will agree that camaros have the aggressive look. Opinions, either car will be the better but all i meant was GM made the firebird to be the nicer of the two thats all.

Nicer is in the eye of the beholder.... if you like smoother,sleeker lines, then a Firebird is the car for you. If you like a more aggressive, in-your-face look then a Camaro is the car for you. I think it was as summed up nicely in an earlier post...if you could compare the cars to animals...
Firebird = Panther...sleek and smooth. Looks aggressive in a subdued sort of way
Camaro = Rottweilder (spelling) .. junk yard dog...Looks aggressive in a " I'm in your face" sort of way...hehehe
I like the "in your face" look personally. Hence I own an IROC.
And to reply to someone who said "Iroc's are for Gino's". I think that was a dumb thing to say...kinda stereo-typing Italians and Camaro owners.. I am not Italian and I own an IROC
Peace people...there is my $0.02 ... I have to admit though.. it's pretty funny watching people defend their prides and joys.
LONG LIVE THE THIRD GENS!!

Everyone in this thread that says that one or the other sucks or uses any other offensive term is just being a dillhole. Just place your votes and shut the hell up.
Stock isn't always slow, neither is restored, but trashy and tacky will always be trashy and tacky. At the same time, modded isn't always fast, either. When people start to accept this maybe they can get along better too.
If people really want to argue about what car is faster over the internet they need to shut the hell up and go to work. Make money then drive to wherever the other person is and take both cars to the dragstrip. Otherwise its all opinion and horse****.

Maybe cause a 72 Le Mans is a slow piece of garbage even in mint condition. Seriously.

Why can't people say "I perfer the camaro because of this" "I perfer the Firebird because of this"
People come in here like they are a car g0ds and say "This is better because I said so, this car sucks"
And thats how these damn flames get started. People need to accept not everyone has the same preferences as them

First off what is a dillhole?
Second, I agree with Drew. This poll what meant to find out what car you have/perfer. Not an open ASSult on erveyone, and everything.
Well you guys have done one thing for me. If this poll continues on the path it's going, it might get the most posts of any on this board.
Woohooo

They both rock, why argue about this...?
I like 'em both, but obviously I like the Camaro more. I can't really put my finger on any specific reason. When I bought my first Camaro, I had looked at several Firebirds as well, but the Camaro was in better shape and I've bought 3 more 3rdgen Camaros since then. But, if I had found a nicer Firebird, it could have gone the other way.

In my own defense, my car (72 LeMans) is not slow, stock maybe high 17s, but mine isnt stock, but its no 12 second car. Its just a driver. Its quick for around town, gets compliments and thumb up everywhere i go, and sounds good. And maybe 86street should have been more clear, he keep up with my car, close race, he got off the line first (tire spin on my part) but i caught up quick and passed him about 35 mph and we raced till 90, but i will give his car credit, it was on my back bumper. And i have been to his house, its not in the trailer park. His car looks sweet and probably a low 15 second car. The only thing I would change is the rims.

17 seconds stock. Mhmm... I'd call that slow. Take a stock 17 second car that weighs 4,000lbs (not too far off the mark I'm sure) add a few bolt ons, probably still a 16 second car. My opinion on bench racing, post time slips or don't talk ****. No one cares anyway. There are plenty of fast yet ugly cars out on the roads and on this message board. If the car looks good and fast its more impressive. IMHO if you buy ARE wheels at Kmart and put them on a Camaro you're tacky. If this doesn't apply to you, then don't let it bother you.
I think the bottom line is that no one cares, just vote and shut up. Or you could pull your *** out from behind the computer, waddle out to your crapmaro and drive to where ever the person you're pissed at lives and both of ya go to a drag strip, or borrow a gtech and take an unbiased third party, do whatever you have to do so you don't have to feel bad about your tiny *****, but quit arguing already and stick to the point of the thread.

Street, Chill brother. It's not worth it, and unless you want to be banned, I would quit arguing with a Moderator.
Common sense, no one is saying anything about your car. It's nice, looks nice, I'm sure it's nice.
Well isn't that special.
Most of us have nice cars.
And those that dont, are tring to make them nice.
I have use the word nice 6 times in this post.
I bet you just counted them, and now your reading this, ha.
That's kinda funny don't you think.

Holy crap, I can't believe I just read through most of this. I doubt many will get this far. But someone made a good point. Our cars are very similar granted there are differences. Stop arguing over which one is better. That's just opinion and will go on forever. Either of the two can be modded to look awesome. To me, as long as it ain't a Civic or Cavalier that has been riced out ( you know the kind I'm talking about ) then I'd drive it.
