If GM really does not care what we think then they have the worst business model ever.

Bottom line is that we dont have to buy a Camaro if we do not want it. If it in fact turns out to be retro as the sketches based off people who have seen the car are, then people who do not like that styling will need to make their opinions heard. There can only be one retro generation of the Camaro as basing it off anything but a 1st gen would not seem to make any sense, so we could only hope for something we like in a future model. For the time being I'd be perfectly content spending the $30k on a 1993 GMC Typhoon and about $15k in mods . If it turns out to look modern as guion states, then you'll see me sprinting to the nearest dealer to give my kindeys for a down payment.

Anyone else notice that SS_Sharpshooter hasn't been around much lately? I wonder if his version hit "too-close-to-home" and the General had him taken out.

wasn't Sharpshooters the Red one a few pages back. I think that one looks killer. The headligths need more of an agressive look but I dunno why but I feel that one is probally the closest out of them all.

Nah, I'm still here, although I think I have seen some black Suburbans rolling around home lately. :-) I try not to be too vocal. Besides, I usually see someone else chime in on topics with something so similar to what I was going to say, that I just remain quiet and take it all in .

I visit this board far too often every day... but I can't help myself.

Here-Here! I know where you are coming from on that front.

I have gotten to the point where I typically hit this board first for cars news, then hit Yahoo or something else for the actual world news... that's screwed-up ain't it?!?!

I wasn't brainwashed. They implanted that damn chip in my brain like they did to Cartman on that South Park episode.

Anytime I mention classified Camaro info, I get zapped.

At least I didn't have that implanted retractable satellite dish that Cartman had to deal with in another episode.

I'll agree with you that the F-body isn't as much as an easy vehicle in relation to the Mustang. It is low and sporty (the way I like it). But, Mustang sold so well mainly because of the name, IMO. Little chicks and non-enthusiast types know the name Mustang over Camaro, and that's where the majority of them sold--the V6 with the name...
You couldnt be more right, when ever i tell someone that i drive a camaro they automatically think i drive an IROC or something. I tell them no a 98 SS...and all they do is I didnt know they made them in the 90's? Mustang is so well known its crazy, and everyone and there brother thinks that they are the fastest cars just beacause it is a mustang. GM needs to advertise the 5th gen like crazy when it comes out and make quite a few mustang references to beat it. Gm f*cked up the last 10 years without putting the name out there so even when it does come back, no one is going to know what a camaro is.
