I'm glad it's causing such a stir....good for the cause....but I have to think we can get a beautiful and thoroughly modern design.

Nice but it doesn't look like a 2007 Car. Would have made a cool 2nd Gen Camaro

Whether you like it or not, one thing is for certain. The huge reaction it has drawn serves to show GM that the Camaro still has a huge following and many people rooting for it.

There must be numerous people within GM that have taken notice....hopefully this includes some key decision makers.

Never thought I'd ever see eye to eye with IZ28

Constructive criticism:

Its a neat looking rounded off 69 Camaro, but it doesn't define its own style. I'd like to see someone do an evolutionary fifth gen concept. Just my $.02.

I like the car a lot. The first gens ecspecially the 69 camaro were my favorite. If it came out i probably would by it. But i would rather the camaro be more evolutionary. I'm not really into the retro to much. I think that Kris, along with what he has done now. Try to make a totally modern looking camaro.

I'd say with a more modern front end, we'd have a winner.

i concur
but i'd say it needs a new front end and a new back end, something totally evolutionary
maybe more aerodynamic
but either way, that is still one sweet looking concept
good job

o, and i don't know about the rs treatment
i think the headlights should look just a little different from the whole grille, my .02

I saw that a couple of weeks ago when I got that issue. I actually like it better than the first concept he did. It looks very nice, IMO.

People will just take anything as a Camaro. It even has the lousy bar.
