Modified 5th Gen Concept

I started with this http://www.helixstudio.com/ssmd/camaro/camaro_ss.jpeg and put some actual aggressive Camaro looks into it. It has cues from every Gen without being a retro car overall.

Thumbs up

Not bad. I think the original head lights are more practical, as well as the original lower fascia. Back end looks pretty good too. Nice touch on the wheels.

hey man, i like what you've done. my only thing is that im hoping your working on what the actual car looks like and not what everyone else wants it to look like. other than that, you did a really nice job

Wow, thats really good. Really dig the 3rd gen-esk rims (I think they look like IROC rims anyway) Id like to see teh hood scoop cowl up a little more so its not so flush with the hood. It would look meaner and might provide extra clearance when needed. Say for nitrous cylenoids or somehting

very nice man! great picture... now with that out of the way...

The front end still has some major retro cues. Having the grill up that high is just gunna look retro no matter what you do. And the rear fenders look good, but could probably be blended into the body more... but over all, If that was the camaro now, Id be getting to my chevy dealership to work out a deal!

Well, I'm taking what we know about the 5th Gen so far and just improving on it. The grill is supposedly gonna be something like that.

I have always been a fan of the fog lights closer together (3rd gen and 93-97') versus farther apart(98-02'). I like that aspect in the concept, so I vote to keep it that way for what it's worth.

Nice job! I looks great, a little bit of Chevy SS in it like the wheels, and some of the lines but thats fine with me. I've seen the SS in person and although its kinda big its a really nice looking car, but not a Camaro. This would make a nice fifth gen.
