"The car sits on a much shorter wheelbase than a standard Commodore, and the roof line is lower as a result. The rear doors are decoys in an attempt to pass off the coupe as a sedan, and the C-pillar is much narrower."

Didn't we already see a similar car strapped to a trailer?

if this is a test platform for a 5thgen, then this is certainly good news. only a matter of time before we see even more pictures and hear more specific info about it

Guess I'd better keep saving eh? I just hope that we'll have some concrete indication on whether there'll be a higher performance version ala Z28 in the 2nd year of production so I don't kick myself afterwards.

Was there an article about this a while back? The Commodore was on a trailer with goofy looking doors and tacked on fender flares?

Not the point ... I don't want anything 4-door (or look-a-like) associated with the Camaro!! I don't want some bean counter to decide that GM needs their own version of a Dodge Charger (4-door "muscle car" = worst. idea. evar. ).

Or the G8.

There is some room for 4 door muscle cars.

It was the same car. Or a least a second mule.

The car on the trailer had a spoiler on it, I think. This car doesn't. Of course, they could've just removed the spoiler.
