'96 CE Corvette or '00 Camaro SS for daily driver?

I'm quite familar with both cars quite a bit. I had considered selling my 96 LT-4 Vette to buy a 2001-02 SS Z/28 Camaro. After I'd jump straight from my Vette into my buddy's Camaro, I was shocked by the 'step down' I had taken and that's exactly what it is.....a giant step down. This is gonna piss off the troops, but a Camaro is a poor man's Corvette. The Vette is a much higher quality car, will hold it's value better and you can beat MOST LS-1 Camaros....just trust me on that last one! If you need further validation....just pretend the Camaro is an 1982 model and look how those have fared. Oh yeah...ome more thing.....Camaro people don't wave at each other.
