a 4th gen evolution concept . . .

. . . a car we obviously will not get . But I was curious to see how a modern looking car in a hatch/t-top body style would look . I was really wanting a trunk true coupe camaro this time , but now Im on the fence again .

Whats does everyone think ?

That said, the only thing that I could see changing would be making the hood line to the upper grille a little bit more upright.

Looks nice, just not so sure it screams Camaro to me.

Kinda looks like the Saturn Sky when I first looked at it but haven't you done drawings before? I love the color you chose as well. I think the front end looks great though It looks a little too low slug IMO though. I think you needed to add a Camaro body line to the side I think that would have set it off but that is one killer drawing.

Also didn't you do a 5th gen concept a while back that was a dark blue color? cause if you did I loved that concept.

Yup. Mixed with some Saturn Sky.

I'm not sure what else I could say about it, though. I kinda like it, but the proportions are a bit off. With some tweaking it could be quite nice, actually.

Yeah , I have . I just do them at work when we get really slow . I dunno why they always end up blue though , hehe . Ive seen alot the sky lately , that probabaly why it transfered a little in the front .

That concept looks like is was drawn for Kappa.

Not bad at all, with some tweaking, maybe a little toned down that could go some where.

All I want is an evelution from the 4th gen, just with more modern styling, a little more edgy instead of bubbley.

The wheel base, to me, appears longer than the Kappa siblings. Granted I know this is only a concept, but it also made me realize if the real thing is Zeta and it does have a slightly higher beltline due to the firewall, then the car is going to need a set of good 17"s and 18"s. 16s are going to look small like on the 05 Stang.

Looks nice, but try making the windshield a little more upright.
