shorter concept (photochop)

really should have a gallery



shorter by a few inches, removed "camaro" badge on the side, made the nose not stick out so much, solid bar tail lights, targa top, rear side marker lights are longer.

Re: shorter concept (photochop)

You nailed it as far as where the T-Tops should be. Id like to see the concept as is with the T-Tops though. Did you make it slightly flatter front or just shorter?

I do like the look of the short nose. Unfortunately, the nose will probably end up longer to get a better crash rating in low speed impacts.

Re: shorter concept (photochop)

way to go dumbass, chop a little off and stuff the engine back under the cowl.

I hated that about my 4th gen.

I was thinking the exact same thing once I realize the length he took out was in the fenders. If it gets T-Tops or Targa thats where they should be though

Re: shorter concept (photochop)

Not really a fan of photochops (it's futile and not artistic), but anasazi, your's doesn't look too bad.

Remember all, the Camaro concept is exactly that: a concept. Those proportions are going to be altered to fit whatever structure it is GM is actually making.... though that structure looked suspiciously like a modified Sigma (Zeta?) underneath.

Re: shorter concept (photochop)

i'd make the space between the door and the front tire a good 2 inches smaller if i could, but i don't have a decent mouse or photochop skills so it wouldn't look good if i did it.

i'd also make the space between the front of the car and the front tire probably one inch shorter.

granted, if i actually did see these changes i might change my mind, but it'd be worth checking out.

other than that, i don't think i'd change much. the concept is like 95% perfect on the exterior, just a few touches and it'd be awesome looking.

Did you flaten the point on the nose or is that stock? Is it possible to make the rear a hair less pointy?

Actually I meant not as sharp of a point. Toned down to a 69 or 3rd gen point as opposed to a 2nd or 4th gen almost beak point the concept has
