Here is something along those lines but no t-tops.

That chop while well done just looses a lot of what makes the aft greehouse of the Detroit concept look good. That big expanse of rear glass in the chop doesn't look right at all.

Surely it's possible to have a single (or two smaller) removable roof-panel(s), i.e. square holes in the roof that don't infringe on the edges of the roof. Not quite a t-top but at least better than nothing and it won't have so -ve an effect on body stiffness.

I agree with this one. One of nicest features of the concept is the greenhouse.

While I'm not opposed to the idea, I'd like to see a rear view of it. I don't think it would look nearly as good from behind.

Yeah, I have my reservations about that too.

Sneaky Neil's second photo reminds me of an updated R34.

Naa, don't like the hatch. It's time the Camaro looses the TTops and goes with a Removable Top like the Corvette has, now that would be cool!!!

I think when everybody who wants t-tops would also want a targa top, its jsut easier to put t-tops when talking instead of t-top/targa topeverytime.

It looks really good jawz. I do think the hatch looks better on it, and the t-tops are a must as an option.

NO HATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


as already said, it RUINS the lines of the car and doesn't belong at all. Since the concept isn't a hatch though, pretty sure GM realized as much too.

Not bad. I would still take the coupe though. The hatch from the side angle looks like a monte carlo aerocoupe from the 80's.
