Not sold on the styling yet. I maybe it’ll grow on me. Its a heavy car, much heavier than the last gen Camaro. Hope it sells better than the GTO which it essentially replaces. From what I gather, its pretty much an updated version of that car’s platform.

I agree. I didn’t even realize the difference until you noticed it but now that I compare it to the concept I clearly see the difference.

Ray Charles and Helen Keller could have collaborated and came up with a better back end.

I think this is the best looking pic of the car. I hope you can get these Headlights as an option.

I don’t think they will be available as an option from the factory. Something about them not meeting US standards. They were on the test mules in Australia. But then again, not saying a 3rd party won’t sell them. They were popular.

What’s amazing is how close production is to reality. Not so long ago concepts got REALLY watered down for the public.

Camaro’s playing catch up again to the Mustang :mamoru: But this time Chevy’s got it right… I really wish Ford would add @ $2K to the cost of the S197 and give it IRS.

Car looks like it’s got presence :tup:

I don’t care for it. It looks too big to be a sports car. It fails the same way the Challenger does. At least the Challenger is better looking.

I don’t really see this to be a sports car. It is a muscle car in my eyes. A nice one at that, though.

Well apparently it can handle good now, so that makes it more of a sports car. Although i agree muscle cars usually dont handle well

Muscle cars are dead. I can’t figure out for the life of me why car companies are trying to re-create them. Let them die in peace!
