Weird 5th gen...

I've seen some very cool custom 5th gens by now.... this isn't one of them. I commend the hard work that went into this thing but it just looks too wierd. Saw this at the Route 66 show today.

The tail lights are trippy, makes the back end look very wide. Not a fan of the paint either. However, it does look like quality craftsmanship. To each his own I guess

Not for me!! Don't like the triples in the back or the duals in the front.
I'd like to see the back done with the 90's ZR1 tail lights once.

I think thats probably a throwback to the 60s when people would put 6 taillights on the corvette stingray. Like jan and dean said in deadman's curve "all the jag could see were my 6 taillights"

Weird, interesting. I don't hate it (except the blue checkerboard paint, yuck), but it's not my favorite.

Anybody remember when I put the Volt concept car's headlights on the Camaro concept in photoshop a few years ago? It's a shame they didn't achieve a similar look. Keep in mind that I didn't spend too long photoshopping this...

I don't like the way this was executed, but it does look like they did a phenominal job of integrating them (unless they don't look as good of quality in person).

Don't hate the rear lights, but that paint scheme looks cheap.

Shame I can't see it. But I love the shape of the lights Brangeta posted. If only they were projectors, not LEDs and something different was done to the turnsignal. Definitely looks nice, though not Camaro-ish. If only they would have brought back the Firebird, it would be perfect.
