I like the concepts location, but moving it won't stop me from buying one.

I'm gonna miss reaching across 6 feet of dashboard to clean the windshield. I was just getting used to that...

I think the fuel door is actually a good idea... ...Except for a rear collision possibility. = Possibility of spilled fuel. I'd rather spill fuel on the back of the license plate than on the paint.

I spill gas on my GN every time I fill it up. I swear, there's no clean way to do it. It sucks.

It's also a pain to hold the plate down while you fill up. You can't just put the nozzle in and let it fill... you have to hold the damn thing the whole time.

What I'll miss on the 2009 Camaro will be the $3,600 MSRP that was on my 69 Z/28 when I bought it new! <VBG>

For the gas tank, I like the old 1969 Dodge(I know, I know) Charger location, It reminds me of a race car.

For the T-Tops, I would love to see those also, but didn't they leak, and cause stress on the frame? I don't know...I do know they leak though!

I'm not concerned with the trunk, although a hatch trunk is a nice thing to have.

I think this mule shot gives you an idea of what we can expect wheel size wise.

And you'll continue to feel that way until you own a car with that setup. It sucks royal ***.
