Interesting...

I predict the normal "too retro" complaints.

I like the roofline, door and side glass. I give the midsection a thumbs up!

WOW THat is Hot

It is one of the best ones I have seen yet, very modern with some old school styleing ques. The only thing I don't like is the back, but that could be changed easily. Waaaaay better than the 2005 Mustang.

Answer to the question: "What would happen if you crossed the Buick LaCrosse concept with a 1st gen Camaro?"

I really really REALLY hate retro. But that's just me talkin...

Not bad...

I agree with Knowklew the back end needs a bit of work..


I wonder if the Hood Scoop Police will jump on this one for its smooth hood like they did the GTO

Well i kept looking at this car and came to the conclusion that the front end looks bad @ss. Real mean looking like, "Don't **** with me" kind of look.

That don't put side-view mirrors on concepts anymore?

The stance is right.

The bubble back is all wrong. The rear reminds me of an Olds Aurora. The front is of the ever-so-popular '69 variety.

Thanks for posting (I always love seeing new Camaro concepts) but this one misses the mark for me personally.

not doing it for me
the rear is too ugly imo
the front does look sweet but also, like the rear, too retro (i'm more of an evo/revolutionary guy )
i'm not sure what's up with the b pillar there
looks like the rear side window glass goes all the way to the roof of the car which in the 4 gens we've had, has never happened
o well, to each his own

Overall, I like it. The door looks too small, like it was from a 4 door. Outside rearview mirrors would help. Oh, and where are the hood scoops???

Other than stealing the grille and tailights off a 67/8 Camaro.....there's nothing in this design that says "Camaro".

Next........

I like it, espcially the fact that it has a trunk. I have always liked the trunk look over the hatch. Looks good.
