Out of all the concept pics I've seen, only one didn't make me want to puke. Has GM lost all it's design ability, or do they just smoke rocks all day and come up with *** looking concepts to apease the ricer crowd.

By CZ28.com's very on Kris Horton.

That first one is from waaaay back...you been hidin' under a rock?

Check out the 5th Gen Discussion forum - you should find quite a bit more.
GMInsideNews.com had a whole article about that first one though - you should be able to dig it up...it's from about a year ago I guess.

None of those concepts come from GM. If you have an interest in this sort of thing, you really should visit the 5th gen forum.

Re: If this is what the 5th Gen Camaro is going to look like. GM can keep it!

You don't have to blame GM for any of those concepts Kris Horton also animated another Camaro concept that many think will be what the actual Camaro will look like. Look for it in the 5th gen section, you should be able to find it. It also came out in the Sept. or Oct. edition of PHR. Two GM engineers that have seen the next RWD 2+2 coupe from Chevy both helped him draw it.

The red one from Chris Horton is the closest thing to the actual car we can get to see now...from what people that know said it will look like

and to me it isnt that bad as to looking like the actual car

ishz28..the real problem is not the car..thats going to rock..trust the 5th gen croud here..its the NAME...


ohh and sorry to get pissed about this but WTF does ricer have to do with any of these concepts??? Rice is adding a huge downforce spoiler to a FWD car??? for what?? putting stickers on a car for parts you dont have, adding body kits to a 4 door mom mobile..looks fast and go slow..RICE

its not rice to add big wings, body kits and cars that actually have perofmance parts on them...just bad taste..look fast and go fast not rice

rice is now the new term for ugly looking...and those concepts are from people that have ideas, maybee not the talent and come across only to what they can see and do...GM has nothing to do with these cars..hold tight and visit this board more often..you will see

Re: If this is what the 5th Gen Camaro is going to look like. GM can keep it!

Kris's work is outstanding. To use a phrase "Man's got skillz!".

If the red one is close (as in really close) that follows most of what he had in the orange one- which I would love to see in a car. It's not quite as aerodynamic as the 4th gen, but by the lines of the hood and height of the headlights, looks to be a bit better then the mustang. If the red/orange work that we saw there is close to the 5th gen - you'll see me lined up at the showroom...

You should see his other work...

However, none of those concepts are what the 5th Gen is going to look like.
