I just have to wonder how many potential Camaro buyers will go for a G8 instead...

I see a LOT of BMW in it.

But I don't think that's a bad thing.

It works.

So will the G8 be based off the SSV or the GTS E-Series? Those are the GTS wheels...

edit - also consider the GTS gets 20" wheels.

Well, the Camaro was a no go for me as soon as I saw its retro design. So if want an affordable RWD V8 GM car, I pretty much have to pin my hopes on the G8.

Finally a nice looking Pontiac style grille, I was begining to think they forgot how to make one and that is the grille the Grand Prix should've had since 2004
