We call this aerodynamics dude! Have you ever heard of the term "aerodynamics"?

Plastic saves a ton of weight over steel. Did you know the Viper has plastic body parts as does the latest Lamborghini? Hello?

That design would be too hard for sheet metal.

Believe it or not Ford was looking at getting rid of the Mustang at the same time GM was looking to get rid of the Camaro/Firebird. Unfortunately just like the Caprice/Impala/Roadmaster GM beat Ford to the punch and eliminated theirs first. Had the Mustang gone first I would be willing to bet big money that GM would not have killed the Camaro/Firebird. After all total market share in a certain type car is a great thing to have.

Ok so there is a concensus that Gen 4 is the bottom. How about the worst Camaro ever? Check out this abortion:

LAS Custom Camaros in Kentucky did those. No idea if they're still around. They're hideous though, IMO.

Well , what you expect from a car that was 10 years old . The 4th gen was one of the longest running gens of any car .

All years are special given their time in Camaro history. It is what the respective owners see in them that is important. When I drove an '82, I enjoyed it as much as the '94 and now my 2012. The C6 have won their place in the continuum. One follows the other.

1st: The template for the 5th and 6th, and in the right trim, still stunning.

5th: Near perfect upsized and modern interpretation of the 1st. The proportions are perfect from most angles, and it's menacing and sinister. Even after so many have been sold, they still turn heads. Design has aged very well.

6th: Almost as good looking as the 5th, just slightly less road presence and slightly less intimidating. But still, near perfect proportions from most angles.

2nd: Beautiful American interpretation of a classic GT shape

3rd: Slightly plain, but looks great from the front in IROC trim and still a pleasing and clean design.

4th: A bit too much like a blob, as was typical of most cars of the era, but SS versions look good, and the pre-98 front end with the old style headlights was distinctive and good looking.
