+1
i dont see anything anything that resembles the mitsu
Maybe it's just me, hence why i said "my opinion". I just don't like it. i hate those lines. and yes i do know what the first gen looks like.

Hey...no problem...everyone has their opinion and I respect yours. I just think that the similarities between the old and new are glaring and wanted to try and point them out. It's cool, man.
well i dont have a ride just yet but soon to be. my friend has a sweet '84 T/A like this one
That thing screamed 69 camaro when I opened the attachment. I love it!
Not sure which I like better the Camaro or the new Dodge Challenger, I'm leaning towards the Dodge.
It looks cool, I think the Challenger looks much better though, but Im biased
hmm is chevy takin RC resumes? LOL
Dude thats plain fugly. Its GMs desperate attempt to copy what the other members of the big 3 did or are doing. Just another flop that will put GM another step closer to in the toilet!!!
The aztec, The SSR, The avalanche, and now the Camaro can be added to the list of over styled turds from gm!!!!
Zing!!!!!!!!
whats wrong with the SSr and avalanche, the camaro is a classic muscle car and no one will ever take that away from chevy. u want a desperate try at a new car take a look at the no charger.

I agree! That SSR is joke among others like the new HHR or what ever its called (PT Cruiser copy) and the GTO isnt doing so hot either.
IMO, the Corvette is the only thing GM has going for them.
Don't get your hopes up.. Its GM.. they will take this Camaro CONCEPT car and change it completely give it a 4x4 stance and charge 60 grand for it. I love my 01 LS1 and all the 4th gen camaros but with all the horrid failures and joke cars GM has been making latley I'm completely skeptical that they will make the 5th gen camaro any good.
lets put it this way.. The PT Cruiser comes out.. GM answers back years later with the SSR turd. The FWD import craze hits.. years later GM makes the Cobalt after the trend is already on the way out. hell dodge made the viper and for years GM hinted that the ZO6 would be a viper killer.. it took years for them to make the ZO6 quick enough to really challenge the viper. GM though does make some damn powerfull engines.. really GM should stop selling cars and just sell LS2 engines because thats all they can do really good! Actually I'd love to get my hands on the new ZO6 engine.. it would bolt into my car... hehe.
i agree with some of the stupid cars that have been out, i think the SSR is cool but i dont think it is that popular because its like 75,000. But its not really GM look how successful their trucks are (GMC). Chevy trucks do really good, i think they just need to get a better and faster design team, i know they are capable of making quality cars and trucks, they just need to get back to doing that.
has anyone else noticed that GM is making a Hybrid trail blazer, i think that will be a big seller.
+1 john! chevy has takin a back seat to the other 2 auto makers like dodge did getting into the muscle car market! The SSR (super sport roadster) isn't very quick so not very sporty! the HHR god only knows what that is! cobalt? the only car that i like from chevy is the vette the new ones are nice and have lots of power!
MOPAR!!! LMAO. Honestly... I think the Vette is the only competative car right now. I think in general all of the other new "muscle cars" are pretty nice but a discrace to the originaly. I think the foreign market is where it is at. I have really grown to like the 350Z.

Heres your answers....
The SSR... Who the F%@k wants a two seater convertible truck!?!?!?!?!? Thats a segment of the market that just didnt need to be made!!!
The Avalanche..... Whats with all the goofy body clading????? Did Chevy already have a full size pick up????? Ohh and if you need a fold down reaer bed that bad get a SUV!!!!!
And son nobody took the Camaro away from Chevy..... They took it away from themselves! They decided to mothball the car and for a very good reason. For every camaro sold there were 4 (yes 4!) Mustangs sold!!!!! It had lost its place in its segment . It was out marketed, out styled and out priced. The only thing it had was better performance but that want nearly enough to save its life.

Come into the light! Come into the light! Unless it's an m3 i don't want it!! (or ferrari, lambo, and bugatti)
Name an American Car and I will do my best to name a foreign one that will beat in price and performance...

hehe price! now thats funny! i bet you any amount of money that you take a ford pinto and put as much money into it as you would the purchase price of a ferrari and the pinto could hang with it anywhere!
yup.. GM is doing just about everyhitng WRONG. They should have started the camaro redesign way earlier and released a new f-body for the 2003 model year. instead they stoped production and lost stupid amounts of ground in the market to every other mfg out there.
Performance of the camaro/firebirds is better than the stangs but the people that want all out performance is small compared to the people that want a sporty looking but friendly daily driveable car. Mustang have a higher seating position, quieter, smoother, much more forgiving ride and handling quality. The v6 mustangs have a very soft suspension and lots of power assist making it a very friendly car.
F-bodys though, v6 or v8, are bumpy rough, low with a low seating position, have little power power assit in the steering and brakes, really its like driving a sledgehammer.. lol. Great for the few people like me that love big loud brute cars but most just don't want that.
GM will get it eventually but I believe it will take filing for bankruptcy and having to massivly downsize and completely restructure the company to beat it into them.
