Well this is the age old question, which 3rd gen do you like better. Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird.

Thought it would be cool to see which one the board likes the best although I think we can all agree they are both great.

 

I personally don't like the third gen firebird body style, but I don't like the 4th gen camaro body style

I'm sure you're going to get about 50/50 response to the pole

 

there are 2 camaros to every firebird made I think....your poll should have similar results.

I like the firebirds AND camaros, but I always seem to end up in a 'bird.

 

trans am baby, thiers like three times as many camaros though, so that has to say something. but i like a trans am better.

 

Looks like it's about 2:1 Camaro:Firebird right now. I imagine that we'll see this ratio run out for the duration of the poll.

 

Do you like what you have, or do you have what you like? I've had both. I like both.

I'm a Trans Am girl at heart, though I'd never turn any other 3rd gen down if the price was right.

 

Just put it this way I was like 10 when Knight rider came out. had a crush on the driver & wanted that car.

I drive a Camaro but my own passion is the Firebird.

 

Firebird all the way! :hail:

 

if a 1991 Z28 and a 1991 Trans Am were sitting next to each other forsale....I'd have to go with the Z28...unless I had enough money to buy both

 

hate to break this to ya but a trans am is a firebird.

just like an iroc or rs is still a camaro.

If your voting for ta, you could not have a ta with out the fiebird. in the same way if they dropped the camaro, there would be no iroc.

 

Thus, why I voted Firebird.

I like Firebirds, but given the choice, I prefer the Trans Am.

 

Exactly!!! Especially one with a Notch!

 

Camaros can eat my exhaust! J/K

But I'd still love to own a 91-92 Z28

 

'91-'92 Firebird of course


-Derth

 

And Firebird takes the lead!!!

 

:hail: Camaro I like both but I would rather be driving in my Z

 

You firebird owners are coming out of the woodwork. Don'y y'all have jobs?

 

Man... come on Camaro owners vote!!!

 

camaro any day 3rd gen firebirds were ugly at least i think

 

I own 3 Camaros but I voted Firebird.

 

I have both but prefer the Firebird.

 

Here's my take on this...

The Trans am front ends look kewl and I can respect the Formula's "all out performance theme", but I don't think I could ever buy one... at least a 3rdgen.

The 3rdgen Firebirds do little to nothing for me. From the front they look good, but the back just looks fat, butchered, and way too flat. That, and those popup headlights are oogly when their up. Don't get me started on those ugly mile wide guage configurations.

My vote was Camaro. They look sleek and brute.

Again, as someone stated tho: 3rdgen = CAMARO ; 4thgen = FIREBIRD/TA

 

I love them both.....hell they're GM and not ...ugh....ford, but I own a camaro and I love it to death

 

Chevrolet Camaro baby, all the way. There is nothing you cant do in an IROC-Z.
:hail: :hail: :hail:

 

Camaro

 

I love the 3rd Gen Camaro bodystyle and dont much care for the firebird as much, but I pretty much like all 4th Gen firebirds and I really dont like the 4th Gen Camaro unless it is an SS. A few look good with a body kit to aslong as its not to extreme. Overall I am a Camaro man though.

 

At least people don't associate Firebirds with the white trash stigmata!!

 

It's nearly 50/50 right now with the Camaro having the slight lead.

I know this is about thirdgens, but some have commented on fourthgens, so I will too.

I had Z28s in the early to mid '80s because of the lower price and a bit better performance, but I always prefered the Firebird's looks, both inside and out. But when the Formula came out in '87, it reigned with me as having the perfect balance of looks, performance AND price. It's still my favorite, obviously.

The fourthgens were very different from each other. I LOVED the Firebird immediately--very sexy. The Camaro took some time to grow on me, but once it did, I really liked it's sleekness. BUT... I think the last version of the fourthgen Camaro, '98 thru the end, was completely UGLY--one of the ugliest cars I've ever seen! I have no idea what Chevy was trying to accomplish with that front end. Just because it seemed "cool" to have round headlights again, it doesn't mean the car needed them. It looked like a half-@$$ed attempt to jump on the "nastalgia" bandwagon.

It's too bad the '88 GTZ concept Camaro never evolved into production. Now THAT was an awesome-looking car!

 

Fell in love with the Camaro the first time i saw one.
I even love my parts car.
I would love to buy a TA someday, but I would never let it look better than my IROC-Z.

WORD!!!

 

Im from South Dakota most people consider us white trash anyway, but I dont give a damn what they think most of the people who use that term have no clue what its like here and are usually rich stuck up people.

 

firebird all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1:hail: :hail: :hail:

 

The Camaro still holding on... but not by much.

 

<---diehard camaro fan for life. Id take a camaro over a vette anyday...well just about.:lala:

 

Since when? Did I miss something? Remember the great Firechicken on the hood debate?

 

Camaro.

 

Firebird of coarse!!!
I like speed too!
I haven't seen any stock Camaros get even close to a 20th Anniversary Turbo Trans Am!!! Well, I take that back, they are always in my rear view!!

You got my vote,

George

 

I voted Camaro since I own one and they're my preferred car....but there are some absolutely fantastic Pontiacs out there.

 

The only car I like the looks of better than a third gen Z28 is a 360 Modena, so...

and BirdsofPray, Morrissey rules (so do the Smiths):werd:

 

I have to vote camaro, just something about an IROC-Z that just appeals to me. Everyone is different.

 

T'was a joke man....chill

Besides, the 'Bird on the hood is classic. You Camaro boys are just jealous:lala:

 

lmao!

 

I think some camaro guys are voting more than once.
Getting grandma and the family dog signed up with a new account to vote shouldn't count.

 

I hope you aren't serious.

 

walk into my room, and garage and you tell me how many camaro memorabilia pieces i have, then look for the pontiac pieces i have, CAMARO ALL THE WAY

 

Reasons for my choice:

1. Im gonna have to pick the car that looks nicer
2. The car thats faster
3. The car that does not have a (duck) as an emblem
4. The car I own
5. The car that will smoke your firebird

You Got my vote!!!

:rockon: :rockon:CAMARO:rockon: :rockon:

 

Firebird! Nothing else comes close!

 

Formula all the way
88 formula converted to 4 barrel

 

I agree. First gen, Camaro fan. Second gen, Camaro from 70-73, Firebird after that. Just my two cents.
