Best of TGO 2004; Camaro & Firebird Nomination Entries!

Ok, all through January there have been two popular threads, the "Favorite Camaro 2004" and "Favorite Firebird 2004". We've all seen some outstanding cars throughout both.

I would like to formally compile nominations from each into two "Best of" categories; like a Top 10 Camaro and Top 10 Firebird list, maybe higher depending on submissions. Themes like "best paint" or "best rims" would be cool, but it'd be too imense, so I think keeping it simple and general works best.

So browse the "Favorite Camaro 2004" and "Favorite Firebird 2004" threads and submit your Top 3 to 10 Firebirds and/or Camaros. I'll make personalized "trophy-esque" signatures for the top 3 of each category, and a generic one for the runners up. For bandwidth purposes, I'd discourage posting any pictures here, there are plenty in the other threads, text nominations will suffice.

[Mods, if you have any problem with this feel free to delete this and PM me]
[Also, if anyone has any suggestions feel free to add them as a post. ]

 

Ok, I guess I'll start... Man, this was really hard! So many cars great in such different ways...

Camaro;
1: CrazyHawaiian; Agressive & classy.
2: BOTTLEDZr28; Killer inside & out.
3: 9T1 Z-28; Classic & mean.
4: Kandied92z; Clean & mean.
5: ChevyKen; Subtle & solid.
6: Flynlow92rs; Innovative & Unique.
7: Graboid; Simple yet striking.
8: CamarosRUS; A cut above.
9: Lock; Clean & simple.
10: iroc2nv; Innovative & Unpersuaded.

Firebird;
1: Sonar_un; Excellent Package.
2: Karps TA; Awesome mods.
3: formul8!!; Clean & mean.
4: IHI; WICKED car inside & out.
5: deadbird; Unique mods.
6: joekickass; Clean & sharp.

 

Out of the Firebird's that were posted...

1. zimmstoy - sleek, clean, and has that sleeper look. I love the sleeper look!! :yourock:

2. jcsws6 - both his GTA and TTA that he posted are awesome looking cars. :hail:

 

Out of the Camaro's that were posted...

Personally I'm not a huge fan of the Camaro's, GTA's are more my thing. However you have got to give credit were it is due, and there are some truly awesome Camaro's on these boards, both for power and appearance.

My choice for best Camaro, hands down, is...

1. Graboids convertible - that has to be the nicest and cleanest Camaro on these boards!!:hail:

 

Camaro would have to be
1: BOTTLEDZr28
2: Graboid
3: CrazyHawaiian

Firebird
1: Karps TA
2: Deadbird
3: wackytower


Those are my picks for 2004

Ultimate fun factor and hot looks

This was very difficult to do as there are so many sweet rides on this board. I had to narrow it down to five because ten just opens up too many options and makes choosing more difficult. After very careful thought this is my list: (in no particular order)
'Maros:
Graboid
Abubaca
Kandied91Z
IROCThe5.7L
tpiroc

'Birds:
powermite

I don't know....

 

Wow picking my fav birds was harder than I thought, but here goes (in no particular order):

Birds
1. Tom Keliher
2. Karps TA
3. A88GTANotchback

Camaros
1. Kandied91Z
2. CrazyHawaiian
3. tpiroc

 

I'm more of a Camaro fan (no offense, just personal preference), but I'd have a hard time picking between:

406-Z
Crazy Hawiaan
Fatal88


All three are nice to look at.

But, there are too many cars on this site, Camaro's AND bird's that are truley nice rides, too hard to just single someone out.

My hat's off to you guys.

I think that Kandied91Z, Crazy Hawaiian, Graboid, TPIROC are the best camaros.....

Sonar_Un for the Firebird & 3.1EyeCandy



Funny nobody mentioned Fatal88, but then again, that car is in a class by itself......

 

What's up guys

both have the hotest 3rd gens around.

i think each one of them should post pics and mods of them.

IMO

 

Hey thanks for all the compliments guys!! I had no idea!! Its hard for me to make a list because so many of you have put so much time and work into your cars. The list will be like 50 cars long. I guess I'll have to think about it for a while. Thanks again!!

 

Thanks for the mentions!

Camaro
1) Kandied 91z
2) That black IROC 'vert from Scandanavia
3) TPIroc
4) DARCOM
5) The Swede's IROC


Firebirds
1) Tom Keliher
2) cg91ta
3) Jmatlock
4) That black GTA from Scandanavia
5) Redraif (I actually dislike the car, but she puts alot of work and effort into, so it deserves a mention)

 

Camaros

1. MetallicamaroRS
2. IrocThe5.7L
3. ES87Iroc
4. NeedforSpeed
5. tpiroc
6. CrazyHawaiian

10. heavy_chevy29

Guys truly beautiful camaros. Lots of you who i didnt mention had really nice ones to but i tried to narrow it down...

As for the birds ill get back later with a list of them

 

i'm going to have to agree with CrazyHawaiian 100%. when i first started building my car 7 years ago i never thought it would come anywhere close to what it is today. it's certainly an honor to have even one person make a nice comment on our cars as i'm sure you all know, every kind word is greatly appreciated. something like this is so hard to pick and choose because every car is built for different aspects and what one person likes may not be the same for someone else. i personally think everyone on here has a nice car, but then again i love my thirdgens! it's going to take awhile to narrow it down, would be much easier with categories but understandably so....

 

I agree..I love everyones car on here!! but a few that stick out a little
Camaros - Kandied91Z, 9T1Z28, 84CustomZ, Flyinlow, 1Bad91Z, CrazyHawaiian, Graboid...
Birds - DeadBird, Sonar_Un, ...Zepher

 

breaking it into catagories would be a geat idea. and ...Zepher does have a sweet bird. i really like it and even thouw the paint isn't very good looking, i still like it
