This car is going to be a beast.

Same ugly grill as the regular Camaro.

Meh. Was hoping for maybe a cross-hair type style. Something different.

It would be nice if they ditched the sunroof....

A set of 20-inch wheels, wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar G:2 tires appear on the Z28 prototype

That would be interesting if there was a ram air & heat extraction

Not sure how it would look though

There looks like a bar/beam that goes back from those 4 holes, so it might not be anything at all.

What would that beam/bar be for?

It would be nice to see an actual tire size. Those things are wide

Lower lip on the front looks like it is a pre-production version of the GFX that has already been released.

I would be very surprised if they kept the current stock grill. I am hoping for the heritage grill but I would bet that it will not be the current grill.

IMO I liked it better when it was one large one :(

Might thoughts when I read that as well.

The fish are taking the bait....

While some items MAY make it to a production vehicle, or none at all, don't let what you see here formulate a theory that this is what GM will unleash. Wait until the production model is unveiled. THAT is what you shall get.

This car is a testing platform to see what works, and what doesn't. And which car are they even testing for specifically? Only GM knows at this point. Anything else is pure speculation. While fun to guess, I'm not getting my hopes up on anything.

Ssooch, I luv ya guy, but let us guys and girls that want a sun roof be able to check it off on the order sheet. After cruising the PCH in a 2011 with a sunroof, I was hooked. A great option for those that want it.

Ron66Vette&10SS · 09-21-2010, 11:33 AM

I was also thinking the 4 "scoops" were heat extractors as well, but unless it's an optical illusion, they look kind of close to what looks to be a "scoop" at the front of the hood.

I'm no engineer, but I would think that extractors would be further back...or am I wrong?

I'd really like to see a close-up of the mufflers to confirm that it'll have the dual mode exhaust.

I like it. but I'm with ssooch... ditch the sunroof.

clg_98ta · 09-21-2010, 11:44 AM

Looks like some hefty rubber on the rear...

Dirtdog · 09-21-2010, 12:04 PM

Im just now noticing the foglights are a lot higher than the 2010's

Someone re-render this thing! It looks like a SLP scoop-hood with vents on the top!
