D@mn!!! I was just going to check that site. Anyhoo...

I don't quite understand their statement about the scoop above the hood or whatever; do they mean the opening that's above the grille that's been on just about every spy shot?

I think there's confusion because the top 3 pics are new, but there's also pics dated April 7 right below them from Nurburgring, and they all kind of look they all belong together. But yeah...the top 3 pics don't look familiar.

SS????? Thats the same Camaro thats been testing for the last few months. Note: the SS has black stripes on the hood and side.

In the article they said ...

Another tip-off that this isn't a base model car is the existence of an air intake just before the hood. Images of a base-model production convertible Camaro were leaked earlier this year, and that car was void of any kind of air inlets.

The pic they are talking about was confirmed by Mr. Settlemire aka fbodfather that its an old concept convertible. I cant remember exactly what he said but its not the production convertible, nor is it even a prototype.

So just kinda ignore what they're saying right hur..

I am not sure how they concluded it was an SS... there are not markings on that car.

that hood scoop does look to be functional, thank god. i wouldnt want to be like any of those mustangs driving around with a big plastic decoration on my hood.

I am not so sure, I think the black color is giving an illusion that it is open. The one I saw in person looked open, but up close it was definetly closed.

As for this one being an SS, only GM knows and we won't find out until they lets us.

Those pics are from the Nurburging and Germany, not in the US.

These do appear to be pictures we have seen before...this is the first I have noticed that damn ugly bastard of an XM satellite antenna. Pray this merger goes through and I can just pop on some Sirius.

Yes, it's a done deal. FTC has approved it.

The top three pics are new to us, they say it's in Milford. So they flew the Nurburgring car (same license plate, same amber turn lenses) to Milford? Could be...

Has anyone seen the Nurburgring car on the lake in Milford?
