Hmmm...

Could be anything, BUT... if the guys got really pissed... who knows...

You wouldn't think GM would hide a top secret Camaro concept car in a giant Camaro Legends Tour semi-trailer with giant CAMARO wording and pictures down the side of it though....

I seriously doubt there is a "Camaro" concept running around certainly not in any trailers... it may be a one-off Callaway designed car to commemorate the Camaro name and that's it i.e. a modified 4th gen.

I got it! How about the old GM Camaro Concept car from way back in '89 or so. The California Camaro....He said the rear was more viper like. And he also said it wasn't the Camaro at Woodward last year. Anyone have a picture???

edit: Picture below:

Ya know...I thought about that too...but it was a corvette concept. I don't know what it would be doing sporting "Camaro" on the back.

Actually I'd kind of like to see the Corvette Moray shaped into the "next" Camaro.

Pretty awesome IMO.

I think this pretty much answers the question posed above...

Some of the Greatest F-cars and their owners from around North America will be in attendance along with displays featuring GM Concept Cars and Historic F-cars.

And what would be wrong with that? That may be the closest some of us on this board get to a real thong!

As for the California Camaro, am I the only one that loves that car??? If that car was going to be at the NCM this weekend, I would be going for sure. Bar none, that is the best "real" Camaro Concept ever.
