Re: I'm I the only one that don't like the new camaro looks?

I'll tell you what will make me decide if I like it or not. I'll park my car, walk out to the lot where they are sitting, and simply ask the salesman to get the keys. Then after he does I'll simply pop the hood, and if I look under there and see an engine crammed inbetween a chasy that's so tight not even Mr Fantastic can work on it. well, I'll simply turn around, tell the salesman
thanks for his time and leave insearch of an easier car to mod.

Eh... just wouldn't be the same without the rattling.

"What's that rattling sound?"
"It's supposed to do that."

like I said. I really don't care for the looks but I WILL probally buy one anyways. My GTO will be paid off in 2 years so I'll have some extra cash to purchase one.

Re: I'm I the only one that don't like the new camaro looks?

I'n going to have to agree with DaSmurfy, i am not to crazy about the concept. It doesn't do anything for me. It actually makes me glad to own my current 98 model. ITs all opionated though. I do agree with the comment about the photoshop pcis with the stripes and diferent color. It looks better with stripes and a different color, but still not anything great (in my opinion). I have actually seen it in person up close, within touching distance, and i don't care for it in person. I just don't understand how people are saying it looks different in person than in the magazines. I thought it looks exactly the same in person. The boody is too bland and most people i talk to think the front looks like a cadillac and the wheels are too big. Its all opinions though.

But they already did that.

I still don't get how people can compare the Camaro's 'retroness' to the Mustangs.

They're leagues apart. The Camaro concept looks like a new car with some hints of retro. Nowhere near the ripoff retro of the Mustang or Challenger.

I see a much more futuristic car in the concept than retro.

I think the homespun firebird concepts look MUCH better.

Re: I'm I the only one that don't like the new camaro looks?

You're not the only one, I've honestly heard alot of complaints. I attend cruise nights up to 5 times a week sometimes and I get alota mixed stuff. The front bumper is wrong and the rear is off too. The side of the car is nice and the interior is a little wacky. I've seen it in person and IMO that didn't change my opinion much.
