That is great work! If the Camaro looks like that I might have to buy 2!

Looks good........but, that grille is starting to bug the hell out of me........it just screams SEDAN and not sports/pony/muscle car....

I'll need to see it, but I sure wish we could see one with more of a 2nd gen split bumper thru 4th gen, headlight/grille arrangement..... More of this flavor......

That's all we need again, LS1/Chrysler big grills and headlights that flow into the hood.

i think if you threw the headlights off that on 90rocz's (maybe his concept, can't remember) concept (the blue one) and i think that would take the cake

One question......didn't the Camaro have this same arrangement since 1970 1/2?!?

I'd love to see this is real paint, different wheels and hoods etc..(just for what if's..)...and taken to the next step in rendering!
From what I can see so far, this thing looks killer!...

This car really looks like the one that Danno described.

It's nice enough,but somehow it looks abit generic to me. I can't say that it immediately says "Camaro" when I see it....nor is it something that gives me goosebumps. I don't know...maybe it needs more attitude or character or something.

BTW Doug, I thought I was the only one that squinted really hard at the front end of the SL to see what cues I could steal for Camaro.

Sheesh. I am sorry to report that the next Camaro will not be a carbon copy of a 3rd Gen.

I wonder how it would look if the 68 wheel arcs were done in a much less "literal" way...say as a more angular line ?

I was thinking the same thing. I'll throw in $5.
