You're only referring to the rear, people have more of a gripe with forward visability.

I've sat in the CTS, the rear is kinda tall, but try looking over your back to reverse in a Fusion. Next time you see one on the street go behind it and look at the the distance from the top of the trunk lid to the bottom of the rearview mirror!!

As for the visiblity of the 3rd vs 4thgen, the 3rd gen has better visibility. The tall and deep dash of the 4thgen makes it hard to see sometimes. I've been in an 83 and an 89 Trans Am and I liked that interior visibility and how it fit me a lot more than my 99.
As bad *** as some of the 4th gen SS and WS6's were, the 3rd gen was better for it's time than the 4th gen for it's time.

 

Sentiments shared exactly . I reeeally miss my 92 GTA and my 90 Iroc and all the other 3rd gens I owned .

 

Hot Dang!!! That is awesome looking! I go out of town for the weekend and come back to this!!! Fantastic! Can't wait to pick mine up!

 

For sure.

In it's time, the 3rd gen was a quantum leap forward in automotive design - and everyone, regardless of your loyalty, knew it.

 

Scott, you guys did a good job with this car. What is the On-Star delete option code and will it come standard with a blue tooth link to display diagnostic information on our ipods and cell phones?

 

looks good to me! can't wait to see further refinements!

 

ok so here goes nothing...I love the car and know that white isn't the most flattering color, but the critques are more important than the good parts. Yes it look hefty, but the front facia looks plain on the bottom. The gill style vents from the concept looked great. The side gills don't look as good, but they are probably not the real deal yet. The rear end looks funky to me? The tail lights and the bar going across appear to be only 7in tall. Just look too squaty. That body line just doesn't work for me. Also the back up light or reflectors. Those little squares just don't look right. Would have been cool to see them places in the black plastic part of the bumper. All in all great job! I don't think another car will be able to steal my heart like the Orange convertible concept did though. That was the perfect car to me. Everything about it was perfect and flawless. The seatbelt buckles were absolutely perfect. The wheels were pure sex. The color beat everything. Hey Scott can you guys sell that car to me eventually? That'd be the one I want.

 

The only thing that seems to add some bulk to it for me is the mandantory higher beltline, for crash rating standards, from what I've heard. And is the only thing I'd still say I'd like to see different on the car.
I can't wait to see a pre-prod in person!...

 

Yes.

 

I am still going to hold out too much judgement until we see the final product and in person.....but it sure looks like they have smoothed out alot of the meaness look of the car to me.

 

I think we're just getting used to the shape.
That's why it seems toned down somewhat.
We've been lookig at this car for 2 full years now!

 

Hardly seems like it, doesn't it?

Think of it this way, it was been over 5 years since we had a new Camaro on the showroom floor.

 

What amazes me is that after looking at the car for so long, I'm still not sick of it!!

 

Thats most of us lol.

I know I see the car every day & every time I walk in to my bedroom & even in my living room.

 

Im not really feeling it like I was with the concept.. maybe cause Ive looked at pictures of the concept alomost every day for the last 2 years and set my expectaitions a little higher then most... the car seems alot taller in stance kinda bulky, rear seems rounded maybe a ducktail would set it off?? Im going to stop there and wait to see what the real production car looks like Im sure they will make improvments before production...
