I always try to avoid parking with my front hanging over the curb as much as possible. I see so many people damage their front bumpers that way cause they always do it and then one day come upon a curb that is too high. Poor Camaro.

think they will come out with a hard top that stores in the trunk????

*Mindz* · 08-06-2008, 05:55 PM

nope.

i dont know if its been mentioned but i guess the rear quarter window will roll down on the vert and not on the coupe.

so im confused?? this is the v8 becasue of the bumper in the front and the mail box slot in the hood. but it has the 18" wheels and it has halos but no rs package bumper whats going on here?

DrProto · 08-06-2008, 06:41 PM

Hard top would look waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay much better! The rag is atrocious 2 me! looks cheap!

DJPixcell · 08-06-2008, 06:49 PM

Weird, it doesn't have any emblems on it.

Not even the chevy logo on the front grill.

Anyways, I love the car.

Little confused, they are still releasing a version in 09?

I think there is much confusion about the packages and so forth. There is no RS bumper.. From all the information I have gathered so far with the unveiling of the packages. There are two bumpers.. One for the V8 and one for the V6. If you order a V8 with the RS package, the bumper will not change from the picture you see in this thread on the convertible. In fact, it won't say RS but the SS will be colored red on the front grill and you will get halo's.. So in other words, the standard V8 bumper and RS V8 bumper remain the same no matter what package you order.. The same goes with the V6 RS... The bumper stays the same with both the standard V6 and RS as you have seen in all the pictures of the unveiling last week... There may still be enough time to change the options and allow people to order a specific bumper on the V8, however at this point it is highly unlikely..

It's a pre-production version of the V8/RS convertible. That is why it has no emblem and it is unpolished. There hasn't been an unvlieing yet with the convertibles as there was with the V6/RS (US) and V8/SS (Australia)

so wait a minute. the v6 rs package we saw with the halos and the nice concept bumper is not the same rs package with the v8? so the v8 has the same bumper with the rs package, as the ss has?

so the only thing different in the rs and the rs/ss is the headlights and tailights? i dont think thats right. i think they already said that the rs/ss would get the same bumper as the v6 rs models we have seen(red,yellow)

BayAreaz28 · 08-06-2008, 08:57 PM

omg! she looks so pretty! look at that pretty tail!
