Agreed!

The other cool thing about these pix, it's now becoming more clear how much the new Camaro is narrower than the concept. I know some liked the styling implications of the concept's generous width. I for one actually thought it looked a little unnaturally wide. The prepro pix seem about right for the width of a car like this. This narrowing also portends well for the likely curb weight of the production cars. Narrowing a car has a significant impact on curb weight, due to the huge cross section being cut... yet there is virtually no impact on leg room. I would gladly give up a couple inches of hip room (typically this is more of an issue for the rear seats), to help manage curb weight.

Looking GREAT so far!

Also they said that the headlights on the cars are not the production ones and that the car is slated to come with 20" wheels on the V8. No pics of the interior because it is not the finished product.
Awesome! Can't wait!

Love this car. Looks wonderful. Coke bottle shape is very pronounced on the side. Did anyone else notice (I'm sure everyone did) the rear diffuser. Is this new or have we been aware of this styling feature before yesterday?

I was thinking that the mustang has always had the pony on the grille, so (guessing) the camaro will probably have its own emblem.

just guessing.
Like I said, it's possible. I'm no insider, so I can't say "no way," LOL. I'd like to see the Camaro emblem turn up somewhere.

Mustang didn't have a pony on the grille from 1979-1992 (and only the Cobra had one in 1993).

Did anyone notice that the tail lights don't seem to have the afterburner look of the concept? It almost looks like it's got a single vertical column of LED's on each light.......which looks REALLY dumb.

I do believe those are just place holding lights, like the fronts...and the slits of light could be reflections from the flash of the Camera.

reminds me of the 93-97 Gen

I like how its pointy in the front like my 1997 Camaro and also with the seperate lights. Chunky in the back. Can't wait till its on the road. You guys gotta promise that who ever buys one of these and if the new Mustang is next to you you gotta say Camaro will always be better looking and faster and show them what a camaro does best.

I realize you're looking for Scott (right?) to confirm/deny this...but fwiw, the guy that told me/our board (Camaro5) this is a bonafide part of the Camaro-team.
