Keep the Camaro, and buy a 2010 GS! No steep depreciation vs new, and with the mirrors adjusted properly in your Camaro, you can have the best of both worlds...a Camaro DD and Vette for fun!

Professional drivers, race car drivers don't turn their heads when changing lanes etc. Think about all those big trucks and panel vans with no windows..it's all in the mirror positions.

Now tell us the REAL reason you want a Vette!
The trick is...make sure that when you're sitting normally, you can't see ANY of your rear body panels in the side views. This vid explains it pretty well: http://youtu.be/KwzUE6PHk4U
