SS IVER still running around the streets of Australia

I ran across these photos on Flickr when I was searching for something. The photo EXIF data shows these were taken 10/28/08.

GPS photo tagging shows that the photos were taken here: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=S38.19...,0.0&t=h&hl=en

It looks like GM is doing everything they can to fine tune these cars before production starts. Only ~3.5 months until the new Camaro start down the line...almost there.

Why are the wheels so misshapen?

Those aren't my pictures. I found them on Flickr.com. Somehow I don't think they'll be sending any IVERs to Houston for me to see. :(

Shhh...those are the new super secret 2SS/RS X43 wheel option that will become available the day after every pre-order drops to production.



The shutter speed on the IPhone camera was too slow to completely stop the motion.

I noticed that the outer rear lights were yellow while the inner ones were red. I thought production was all red. Is this how production is going to be or are they all going to be red?

That light color combination is required in Australia, as well as some other countries. The US will be getting all red lenses.

Your right. The exposure is a little too slow to freeze the rotating wheels. Notice the wheel spokes that are the closest to the camera are the ones that are the most distorted. Since they are closer, their apparent rotational/angular speed is faster.

Because it was just before it jumped into another dimension.

That's one big ass car. Seems like GM keeps stretching it vertically a bit more everytime....wtf is up with that? Why couldn't it just stay thin like the concept?
