You mean the quasi/mini zebra-print fabric on the door panels and seats?

The only leather I would pay extra for is the leather that was in my 04 and 05 GTOs. Anything less shows signs of wear at 20,000 miles.

Anything other than grey as far as looks and I don't like leather, so, a nice looking cloth pattern would be okay.

Got pics?

I don't mind the 2 tone smooth cloth in my '93, but the jungle print definitely has to go.

I could have pics. Then of course I would spend way to much time on here as I wouldn't have a job.

I would have liked to seen a leather version of the LT1 red and black cloth. That color scheme was awesome.

Great, at least we know your a legit source! :D

Don't take this the wrong way but what is your body type? height/weight/build? Just so we can get a better idea of how you fit in these seats! Thanks.

I figured that Jack was afraid GM was going to do an all-rainbow interior. Than I got to thinking about the 1993 Indy 500 pace car edition, and thought rainbow wouldn't be too bad, assuming it was mixed with some charcoal-grey on the side-bolster!

No tuity fruity patterns for me. I just hope the guy who posted earlier who has seen the new Camaro interior and liked it isnt lame. I also hope I'll be able to close the drivers door when I am sitting in the drivers seat. Thank G0d GM is going with the tilt/telescopic steering column with the new Camaro, that was the only way I could fit into the 04 and 05 GTOs I owned.

After seeing GM's latest cloth seats in the newest models , Im not to worried about this . I think the days of cheap mouse fur and wierd patterns are gone . GM's leather in there newest models seems to be much more durable then even just a few years ago .

The only seating upgrades I will/would pay extra for , is if by some chance the leather option has houndstooth inserts ...or if there is a Recaro seat upgrade like in the Cobalts . I would also pay extra for Microsuede . The Cobalt SS , HHR SS and the Malibu LT all have microsuede inserts , they would be nice in the Camaro too .

Yeah , its really nice . The mid pack LT is nicer inside than the LTZ imo ...because of the microsuede .

I'd love to see some color in the Camaro interior, it is a sports car, so to speak. I like richer tones too, they don't look so cheap. Instead of tan, a richer brown, not meaning darker, just more color. And rich blacks or deep charcoals etc..
And I sincerely hope there's no light-gray plastic in it anywhere...:p

GTO --

Repeat after me: "It's about the people!"

The word "Camaro" means "friend, pal, or comrade" -- and thus, let's not insult people.


As to interior fabrics -- I can assure you that there were 5 interior fabrics that were candidates for the 2000-2002 Camaro........and all were shown to Camaro/Firebird/Mustang/Sport Coupe intenders to get feedback. (5,000 people as I recall in Atlanta/Dallas/Los Angeles -- and the fabric we chose was the one chosen by the majority of those people.

It may be of interest to you (and others) that what they chose just happened to be my least favorite choice -- and no, I did not make the final decision -- GM Design did -- but we listened to our customers -- and thus, that's what was offered on the 2000-2002 --

Very interesting. :thumb:

Does that mean you'll show me the five choices for the 5th gen interior and have me and me only choose my favorite one? It'd be so much easier than finding 4,999 other people! ;)

I hope the lead edges of the seat and seat back(as you slide in) are a heavier material, or reinforced b/c that's where all the wear and tears begins...

The first thing that I did when I bought my Y2K Z28 was to send it to a shop and have real leather installed..the gray/black zebra pattern cloth the car had was very unattractive to me..and now after 7 years and 157,000 + miles the drivers seat is showing a little wear on the bolster where my phatt azz drags accross it on entry and exit from the vehicle..I hope that GM offers a good quality leather interior for the 5th gen car...hopfully better than what has been offered in the past.

THe simple the better. As long it doesnt have the seats from the 4th gen (Which I'm sure they wont use) the seats should be fine. My 08 Altima has good seats but sometimes when i really sit, i could hear metal parts in the seat. Hopefully they come standard with power seats. :D

Mustangs come with power drivers seat standard, so look for it to be standard on the new Camaro.

That would be hideously expensive to gm. This isnt a race car, its a major production vehicle. It needs to have the standard features of the current competition just to survive.

I would expect power windows,locks,mirrors and drivers seat to be standard. They are on the base model 2008 G6 I have that cost a lot less than the Camaro will. It wouldn't be worth the additional cost of designing and building the manual versions of those parts since most buyers would opt for the power versions anyway. Dealers would demand those options on anything they ordered anyway, so they have the best chance of selling the cars instead of having it sit on the lot until the "right buyer" comes along

hmm...i know most cars have all that power crap these days, but i just miss the days when there was an actual list of many different options to be had with your new car. Nowdays the options list just seems to get smaller and smaller, so its basically pick a model, color, and wheels(maybe) oh and dont forget the navigation system just in case you get lost on your way home:lol:
