*Sigh*

People will buy it just because its a Camaro.

Unfortunately, that's the only reason to buy it.

I was borderline on the way it looked until I saw it at the NYIAS. Seeing in person confirmed it: it's hideous.

IMHO, too little too late answer to the current Ford Mustang. Good to see the F-body return, but they should make a Firebird, also. GM (Pontiac) blew it with the GTO as well.

At least the Mustang doesn't look like an out of proportion cartoon character.

There's a rendering floating around of the basic new Camaro body style with a 78 Firebird styled nose on it and a Bandit T/A paint scheme. I'd buy that thing in a heartbeat.

The LS looks like the deal to me. 300hp, 6-spd for less than 24K.

I already had my spot in the garage cleaned out for it, now that we found out we are having kid #3 (SURPRISE!) I have several more years of $$ towards the nanny, so now the new Camaro is in limbo.

I may just order it anyway and claim its for my sanity.

and Supe, that rendering used to be MA_PE's avatar. I put it up there for him once. It's bad.

yeah it is. They should've made the thing. We're still hoping.

If they built this one, I wouldn't trade the plane for it but I'd start looking hard for the funds.

Gotta love the Screaming Chicken and the honeycomb wheels.

I'd sell my soul for either of these two:

Supe! wrong thread!

The concept I saw was a black one with the 77-78 front end on it. It did look good.

I love the 70 1/2-73 front end, but it doesn't integrate very well with the new architecture of the car.

The concept I saw was a black one with the 77-78 front end on it. It did look good.

That was Kevin Morgan's initial concept, based on the 77/78 special edition made famous in "Smokey and the Bandit". At the urging of fellow Trans Am lovers he expanded the concept to earlier 2nd generation T/A's and to the original 69 T/A.

He was contacted by GM. If they ever make one, he won't get any "royalties" and as a compromise, they won't sue him for using the Pontiac trademarks.

Here's the "Bandit" concept.

That was it!

I got to test drive this one today, its a 2SS with the auto, but 400 Horsies, it was quite fun.

I'm torn. I'd really like to buy it, but not sure. Wife isn't chiming in either way just yet. She's letting me suffer right now.

 

[Supe]

It just keeps getting worse. That just might be one of the ugliest gauge clusters I've ever seen.

Thou shalt not purchase thy Great American Muscle Car with an automatic transmission; for you will incurr my wrath and I shall smite thee!

Nice looking ride. I'd have to hold out for a manual though. Having an automatic transmission in a muscle car is like kissin' yer sister.
