I really can't remember the last time I've raced anyone... maybe in my 20's. That doesn't mean I haven't buried the speedo but not in a race. I always turn the other cheek cause I know I can take them if I really wanted to and there is satisfaction in not needing to bother.

Other than the performance, I don't see how the Camaro even compares to the M4. Not even on the same level in terms of build quality, exterior or interior looks.

The Camaro and Mustang are huge improvements from the prior generations, but I'd never choose one over a BMW M3/M4...EVER!

Both are right, but for different reasons.

I still prefer the new Mustang over the Camaro. The m3/4 is still faster than both

Wow... that was off topic OP Sorry.
Nice! 1 year off one of the best vintages off all time for Sassicaia (88).

First time I got my wife to fool around with another woman was when I got them drunk of Sassicaia. The wine holds a special place in my heart

My father-in-law (with whom I enjoyed the bottle) very much enjoyed this response

And on a white SS with some black-powdercoated rims, this will look cool. And it should make for an awesome little track car. Cheap repairs so you can hoonigan all you want.
Yeah, the mustang and camaro will be fantastic track car options in a few years. Now that the mustang has a proper suspension and the camaro has dropped some weight. 2-3 years let them take the huge depreciation hit. Then snap one up, strip it out. Reliable, cheap dedicated track car. Like you said if the SS drives like the 1LE like GM says, should be nice package.

M4>

Just doesn't have a polished look inside and out, no sex appeal in my eyes.

Agreed. American muscle has never been so good. Looks and interior still need work to catch up to the euro stuff but motor and handling are most certainly of worthy comsideration .

Totally agree with this. I travel lots and driven in the Camaro, Mustang and Chrysler Challenger. The best out of the three is the Mustang.

With that said, anyone who thinks the above 3 compares to the M3/4 is delusional. Different class of car.

I miss the look of the '09 Camaro. I know the redesign has better down force etc etc but I dun care. Funny Ford did the same with new Mustang for me.

If I had it my way, I'd take the old car looks with the new car interior/improvements for both.

Mid $20ks or less in about 3-4 yrs you can pick one up for a good track budget car

We'll have to talk wine sometime. All of the Antinori wines are great. My next favorite is Tignanello followed by Solaia. I have two cases of Tignanello in my cellar 2007, 2008 & 2009.
