do you believe there will be a 5th generation camaro?

simple question

what do ya'll think, especially after all the stuff that has happened in the last week or so.

no discussion necessary, no posting of proof one way or another, just a simple YES or NO will do.

Re: do you believe there will be a 5th generation camaro?

I definitely believe there will be one.. the only thing is the timing.. I know GM has many products in the pipeline and the most important one is the full size trucks.. so if that won't be out for at least 1 year then these special projects will be out in some time.

I'm positive The Camaro will return and I'm sure that it will be what we hope it should be... (I Have Faith)

Anyone who votes "no" shouldn't even be here.

Re: do you believe there will be a 5th generation camaro?

Yes, GM will reintroduce the new Camaro soon. To do otherwise would be nuts. Bottom line - people want modern day muscle cars. If GM is to stave off eventual insolvency and loss of market share (not to mention respect) then a performance vehicle (to compete ith Ford and Daimler-Chrysler) will need to be introduced w/in the next 24 mos. If they wait much longer than that, then the window of opportunity that the new "muscle car" trend offers will probably start to close. Also, I think that it will have to be an established brand (i.e. Camaro) b/c to "introduce" it by any other name would be too risky. The current car buying environment presents an excellent opportunity for GM to capitalize on, question is whether they will take heed of it or ignore it entirely.

Yes, and I also think Z28x is right on target. I hope we get a Chevelle too! We got the best damn engines going, now we just need something to put them in!

Sure there'll be a new Camaro. Sometime after 2010.

But hey, the GTO took 30 years to make it back.

x2

I'm not expecting the Camaro back anytime soon. I'm starting to not care anymore. Not even the new retro Mustang. I think the 99-04 look way better. I sat in the new one at the AutoShow and was put off by the rental car looking interior.
I wouldn't mind the GTO, but it needs a Navigation and head up display. I use my portable navigation pretty often and find it VERY useful. I actually want an Envoy now. Go up to the snow, put stuff in the back, go biking, go on vacation and have room. Hmm, I think I'm getting old...lol

What's with all of these "who cares if the Camaro ever comes back" posts? If you honestly don't care, why are you here? You shouldn't be.

Re: do you believe there will be a 5th generation camaro?

Why do I believe the Chevrolet SS concept was a vision of the next Camaro? From the cryptic clues given about the Zeta, perhaps that car was too big, too heavy to be a Camaro.

A real Camaro would be a true Mustang rival, not something that's bloated.

Just my opinion... still attempting to solve the jigsaw puzzle.
