God the rear 3/4 view on this car is to die for!!!!!

TheMadHatter99 · 03-17-2008, 04:52 PM

Definitely looks wider than the Avenger, but that isn't a surprise. We've been told before how close the dimensions will be to the concept's.

Other than that, its looking amazing.

Chocolate Apocalypse · 03-17-2008, 04:53 PM

Yeah, the Camaro is definitely wider buy probably a couple inches. And damn it looks good!!!! Great comparo. With all these pics lately it makes me feel like I did when I first saw those CAD renderings back in Dec. 2005. Hopefully GM will decide to do some hot-weather testing here, I wanna see it sooooooo bad!

I wonder what the engineers would say to a person that tried to motorboat that, haha, sorry went a little too far, but it is worthy.

lol, the last pic has mustangs with yellow lights on the ends cuz they are down under. that sucks tho

Camaro Lives On · 03-17-2008, 07:21 PM

i hate to say this, and i hope SOOOO bad that im wrong, but going by how they are loading the cars and stuff up, i think they might be done testing in FL, but if the are, then all they need to do is take a run up around my area, because if they need some messed up weather conditions to test in, then terre haute is the place, no body will know but me

60 one day 20 the next, bring'em up here, matter of fact, just bring one to my house

, and just so im not selfish, just deliver one to all of our houses, how about that? come on, share the love GM !

god that thing looks so bad ass backed into that parking spot. i love these pics of the black one because it really puts it into perspective of what mines gonna look like. i cant believe that i will be owning one of these cars. this will be my first NEW car since my 1999 camaro(long gone)

Maddog78 · 03-17-2008, 08:24 PM

Thanks for the pics.
That gives a good perspective. It doesn't look too big to me.

*Mr. Wyndham* · 03-17-2008, 09:20 PM

Ha!!

That pic makes the Camaro look like a little midget!! and people were worried about weight.

I think it's a touch wider than the Avenger. maybe by a couple of inches...but no more.

For reference:

The Dodge Avenger is:
58.9 Inches high, and
72.8 inches wide.

with ~5 inch ground clearance.

Corvette is 72.6 inches wide...and the Camaro is wider than the 'vette. (As per Fbodfather.) so it stands to reason that the pic is skewed a bit.

New spy pics of the 5thgen popping up on a daily basis is like a celebratory occasion each time we see a new shot. I'm lovin' it, keep em' comin'!!!

look like it's more than a "smidge" wider, judging by the lines i would say a couple inches wider

I think that the Camaro's nose narrows in front of the front wheels and looks to be a couple inches wider over the rear wheels, whereas the Avenger looks pretty blocky.

I think it's going to look just right when I have 15 coats of wax glistening off of the paint in my garage! I wish I could sign the papers right now for mine! I'll take 1 Black on Black 6 speed please!
