In other words, GM is basically stating that the NASCAR Mustang could not be uglier, even if it looked like a Nissan Cube.

Damn props to GM for not giving in.

If they want to promote it should just have Chevy stickers and maybe a Camaro sticker on the side.

But not the fake stuff.

AGREED!!!...

Way to go, GM, good decision...

A thread came up about this a some days ago, and I got the feeling that members here wanted the Camaro in NASCAR, I think some were saying it would be good publicity, worrying about the hoards of Mustang fans and the future of GM.

Here, I found the thread.http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...=camaro+NASCAR
