I think it needs to start with a "C" to go along with Corvette, Cobalt, Camaro, Chevelle, Cavaleir,Chevrolet and so on.

Chevrolet C__________

I hate even thinking of another name.

If it doesn't have to start with C then I vote for that.

If it does...then "Citation" "C3X" "Climax" "curse" ok not really....

There aren't many c-words left that sound aggressive

Chevelle or Camaro are the only two I see.....

I cant honestly think of anything at all that would be acceptable because there just isnt any replacement for those two names...

So Cop-out and Compromise wouldn't be more appropriate?

I like the name Laguna, but not for a sporty coupe. It sounds too peaceful and serene.

I like the SSC

I like the "Panther" seeing as how thats what the Camaro was going to be called int he first place...

Hmmm lets see... another idea was a C word... "Corsair"??? after the WWII Navy plane?

I like that Corsair idea. Those F4 Corsairs were some bad *** Marine Corps planes.

While I like "Chevelle" , don't you think that the Classic Chevelle guys are going to flood GM with tons of hate mail for bastardizing the beloved car if GM decides to go with that name.

Chevrolet Civic... **** thats taken. I don't think the whole "C" thing is as important anymore with the only 2 in the lineup being Corvette and Cobalt that I can come up with off the top of my head. I like "Panther", or "Raptor" like the new F-22 fighter steathly,fast, and dominate plus the whole uhhh jarassic park thing
