I'm posting this separately as I don't want my personal opinion in the OP. I'd opt for the ZL1 because I far prefer Camaro's styling and I don't have any particular desire for the Cadillac's superior feature content.

 

Shoot me, but I'd take the Chevy. It looks much better IMHO (I stress IMHO) and it has all of the same goodies, even adaptable suspension, for a whole lot less. It may not be 100% of the CTS-V for 70 cents on the dollar, but it's surely darn close.

 

ZL1 for me. I'm in love with the Camaro's styling. Plus, I expect it to be a little quicker due to a little less weight and perhaps some lessons learned from the V series which has been on sale for a while.

 

Camaro. I just hate the looks of the CTS Coupe... it looks overdone, like they tried too hard to make it look cool, and as a result it just looks awkward.

Plus, for all the complaints I have with the Camaro, it still looks really awesome.

 

Picked CTSv coupe, but would have picked the sedan over either. And the Chebby's interior is still an eyesore, now with felt.

 

would have picked the sedan over either.

I second this.

 

CTS-V.

I came across one last fall and it stopped me dead. Stunning. I'm a convert.

Camaro exterior is decent enough, but the interior kills it for me. Also, I'm one of those lamefaces that prefers automatic, so the stick-only ZL1 gets a big 'meh'.

 

I like them both. I tend to think I'd go for the CTS V versus the new ZL1 only because its more luxurious...and more contemporary in design...

Still the new camaro ZL1 is smoking hot as a pony car so if priced at 50 grand base price I'd consider it as well...

Just not sure which image I like better...

The CTS V also offers an automatic transmission and thats a big plus for me...as I already have a manual vette...

Now if one of them offered up a dual clutch transmission that would cinch the deal without a doubt...

 

ZL1 for me. Manual only and that's how it's done.

 

The Camaro for me as well, the CTS-V coupe fails on proportions and on details, so it fails for me. The ZL1 is really nice though.

 

This is a hard choice for me.

Id save the cash and get the ZL1. As weird as it is, it might even hold its value better than the V coupe.

 

Camaro.........it's just how I roll. But I'd like a V wagon for a tow car...............

 

V Sedan...but I wouldn't kick any of the three out of bed for eating crackers. They are all very special in their own way, lol

 

CTS-V for me, but as some others have stated, I'd get the sedan, not the coupe. The CTS is just a little more practicle for my wife and me. She takes her co-workers to lunch and I take the grandson and the kids that live next door to McDonalds.

 

ooowee, 50/50, that's awesome. Two very hot cars. I am excited to see the ZL1 soon. I am goin with the cts-v, though. Its a little sleeker, i guess. And something about the interior just makes me want to move in, you know??

 

Voted ZL1. I still drool every time I see a new Camaro.

BTW, I like the V Sportwagon over the coupe and sedan.

 

V Coupe hands down!

 

All these cars are awesome...GM has one to fill everyones taste...

Lots of guys dig manual transmissions but since I already have a manual transmission vette....I'd go for a 2 + 2 automatic CTS V coupe....

I find its styling really striking and its 2 + 2 seating would make it more practical as an all around car if it came with an automatic transmission..(for me)

Lap times at the "ring" that produced the fastest sedan lap time for any sedan under a hundred grand...The CTS V used the automatic transmission...

Thats good enough for me as a freight train hot rod! but don't get me wrong I love the new ZL1....I definitely hunger for one....Its that amazing a vehicle ...

 

I love value so I would buy the Camaro but if someone was buying it for me I would take the CTS.

 

I'm not sure if this was posted yet and even though I thought the zl1 would base msrp at 44,900 car and driver announced they believe the base MSRP will be under 47...

Now if thats true..the ZL1 is a smooooking hot deal!

hard to beat that price...for a car with 550 hp!!!

 

Damn you for no both option!

 

I love both vehicles, but I voted for the CTS-V Coupe. You're bound to see far fewer CTS Coupes on the road, V Series and Standard variants, than Camaros...

But if the CTS-V Sport Wagon was part of the equation, that would most certainly be my choice!
