Re: Camaro Concept Design Sketches
Although I really like the concept as it was unveiled I think I like the cutouts under the headlamps - it gives the car a visual tie to the second gen cars and I think I prefer the taillamp treatment in the second picture.
I cetainly hope that all of the side sculpting curves and creases make it to production (but maybe not the gills) - gives the car a lot of character and adds aggressiveness to its demeanour.

Personally, I prefer it without the cutouts.

Somewhere I remember hearing Bob talk about the headlamp openings. I had heard they had the cutouts but can't remember why they were dropped. Potentially too retro?

I think the scowling semi circular taillamps give a stronger visual tie to other Chevrolet coupes - Cobalt and Corvette than the ones that actually made it the concept.

Wow! Those are very nice. Thanks for posting..
I like the rear ends shown there (esp. the 2nd pic down) better than the rear of the Detroit concept. But without actually seeing them on a CG model or on a good photo-chop of the concept, I can't say if they would work with the rest of the concept in the real world.
