BTW, not one comment in Texas in the negative column regaridng the interior... it is quite the opposite. People make wow comments every time I open the door to give them a peek. Maybe it one of those "Wait to see it in person" things
I was speaking to one person who told me, "I don't know what it is about this vehicle that makes me like it so much".
Then it stuck me... I told him that Camaro is not a "Vehicle"... it's a "ME-hicle"
because you get a personal connection with the car immediately. The person agreed and as he continued to walk around the Camaro he kept repeating.."Mehicle... I like that."

Picture Ron White saying the quote above. Bam, that's it. You got Paul...complete with a drink in one hand, something on fire in the other. There is nothing more to add in order to make the concept work. He is basically the Ron White of the automotive industry.

They did this to add to the aggressive look of the car, to give it a kind of "scowl". I think if they left all of the halo visible it would have a "surprised" docile look to it. I hope the halos are the day-time running lights on the RS cars. If they are the fog lights, I'm going to have to disable that.

They used raptors, fighter jets, and all sorts of inspiration for the front end.

To those who have never met Paul...

In either situation, something humbling is likely to take place...

Amazing!!!
It looks fantastic! I have been trying to decide whether to go with the cyber gray or black with the gray stripes.... I think the choice was just made, but I would love to see one in show condition with the stripes.
What do you think Scott & Co., can we do a black one with the cyber gray stripes for the Phila Auto Show in February?

And... It would have looked too much like the beamer lights. What color is that interior. I LOVE it!!! I've always been a fan of super dark interiors. Those panels look to be much darker than the grey we've seen in the other pre prods. Is it Ebony?
