GM had that car on Power Tour this year back in June too.
I like the production version with the Blue much better.
I don't care for the hood on this one at all.
We owned a '69 with that hood style, so I understand them wanting to capture the style.

The wheels and lower stance make it look better than production version.

We've never had that color. That is not Synergy Green Metallic. It's painted over chrome, which is why it's got that mirror effect. I'd love to do my car up like that though. But that paint job proved to not be as economical to produce so they went with that boring blue.

That paint job cost more than the car. To get that base mirror finish it had to be laid over a perfectly finished body.

I'm curious, how many people here would be proud to drive a car with Hot Wheels emblazoned on their car? Speaking for myself, I'd probably would own a mustang before owning up to something as ridiculous as that and it would have to be a cold day in hell for that to happen.

Loved the Hot Wheels thing when I was a child, but now I'm a man. Time for big boy toys.

Yeah, me too, thought of this right before I read your post. I guess at 51yrs old, I am a grumpy old man, "Get off of my lawn".

I had Hot Wheels, then moved up to HO cars, not Tyco but Aurora/AFX, still have a Cougar and Firebird mint, never "driven".

It is like Halloween is almost a holiday for adults, it is insane. I still like rollercoasters but not willing to stand in-line for 2+hrs anymore. Not sure how life and growing up or maturing is supposed to be, but I am not 13 anymore and for that I am glad.

I'm not a huge fan to be honest, I think Camaro's look amazing with a 2 tone color scheme, like white and black or red and black.

Some of the things like the hood and the seats look sweet, just not my favorite.
