Stop that, Charlie!!!!

Seriously - do you really believe that it escapes us that the concept is one of the best received cars that Chevy has done in the past 50 years? Do you really believe that we're not going CRAZY to ensure that the production model is as close as possible to the concept?

Don't make me come to Chicago, Mister!!!

I'm afraid I'll be disappointed...It looks alright, but it's not really my style... The idea of it getting heavier is a huge turn off. The concept is too big and of they make it skinnier and taller it will look really bad...If what Z284ever said about not being able to fit wide tires turns out to be true then that's another strike against it...Then I wonder just how well it will handle...I don't want a spongy, soft Z28. I want something that could be taken to a roadcourse or auto-x event if I wanted...I'm just worried that the production car will be to mellow for my tastes, or in other words too much like a Mustang...I've driven 2 of the new GT's and they do absolutely nothing for me.

I voted yes because:

a) Scott knows my concerns about the convertible.
b) I want him to show up in Winnipeg with a Hugger Orange '09 convertible.

I am not worried one bit, GM is doing a much better job these days. Just look at the rebirth of Cadillac and the new C6. I am in and will be buying some GM product in the near future. I really hope it is a Camaro with a 427

ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES OR CONCERNS!

The concept is so incredible, anything close to it will be just as amazing, IMO.
