When I bought my Camaro, after years of saving, the dealership had a 69 Charger on the lot. My Camaro was about $42,000.00. That Charger was listed at $110,000.00. Well out of my price range :)
I always thought the Pontiac's had subtle touches that made them look a little cooler. The front end looked better. The rear quarter panel swept in and narrowed a little more. That being said, I had a Camaro from that era. My father had a Chevelle Super Sport that my mother wrecked when I was a kid.
I grew up driving a 1970 Pontiac Tempest that I sold because I didn't have the money or the space to restore and store it. Kick myself to this day.
Still, that first gen Camaro and the coke bottle design always makes me swoon. The subtle curves, the big grill, the stance. Gorgeous car. Cars today? They all look the same to me. Cars from the 70s, 60s, 50s and before were pieces of art.
Chevy makes a good truck to be sure. They also made the sexiest muscle car that ever existed. The Camaro!!!!
I'll see your Camero, and raise you a Mach 1 Cobra Mustang : )
Very nice!!!
The MOPAR cars had the best look, but the engines didn't run right unless you lived in a really dry place.
Nothing wrong with a classic Charger, Cuda or Challenger! They always grab my attention when I see one.
My buddy's dad used to own this car:

I bet that car is worth $150,000.00 today. Very nice!
We weren't allowed anywhere near it. Haha.
No doubt!

Wow. Another friend's dad got his first big paycheck in the early 70's and went to buy a Corvette. His wife said no and he paid off the house instead.
Ha ha! The only reason I was able to buy my Camaro was because I had paid off my house and was able to save. His wife was very wise!
He told me the house cost $11,000.
I was always partial to the first generation Firebirds.
Almost identical to a first gen Camaro. Different grill, different tail lights, and some vents over the rear fender but a bad ass car none the less!

Yeah man, the racks on those babes. Who needed girls with grills like that?
Especially now that Pontiac has gone the way of the Dodo bird!
I believe 67 to 69 Firebirds are more rare than a Camaro and thus harder to find and more valuable. So when I see one, I take notice.
The orange and black color scheme just looked mean.
