Does anyone know how much the RS package will cost? Most of the things in that package NEED to be on the Camaro to make it look right anyway, so I don't see many of them being built without the RS package.

To me that is not the big problem, they need to somehow make the AC condenser and other componets behind the grill Black. That silver stuff just sticks out like a sore thumb.

The turn signals would not work in the location of the concept, they were for one too small to meet government safety standards, and with the headlights on they would be harder to see in that location.
I have a suggestion, get some headlight tint material, and tint the turnsignals a smoke color...but not too dark that they would be hard to see when turned on.

I'm betting there will be a "whistler" mod for the new turnsignals in the aftermarket

Okey, here's a question I don't think I've seen before. Okey, we all know that Chevy's have the daytime running lights right? Well here's my question. If you get the Halo's what will be lit going down the road, the light or the halo or both? I think just the halo'd look sharp in that case.

The lights have to be where they are because on the outside edges of the headlamps they are hidden by the edge of the opening they are recessed down into. See how the whole lamp and top grille are recessed back in the fascia (on the top grille on all cars and on both grilles on the concept and the V6)? Well that recessed area hides the turn signals when not viewed "head on". If you get at an angle to the car the edges of the recessed area where the turn signals are on the concept is shielded by the edge and cann;t be seen.

It's a reasonable concession on the front end of the car that makes sense. Some of the other changes don't yet have logical explanations.

That question was asked before and I don't think we had an official reponse. We all came to the conclusion that it will most likely be the signal lights since it's more expensive to rewire it differently just because a car has halos.

If you get an SS with the RS package, I hope they are not going to replace the SS with an RS badge.

I am hoping these RS cars we've been seeing are V6 Camaros that did not have anything on the grills.

Pleaes tell me I am right on this.

SS with RS package will have red SS badges instead of silver badges.

On first generation cars that were ordered with both SS and RS options, the SS emblems superceeded the RS emblems. I would think that tradition would hold true.

The pics of the convertible look like just the halos are lit up.
