Overall a sweet car, but this interior has GOT TO GO. Hell no.

Well if you add a few modern touches to that interior, switch the camaro logo on the wheel out for a regular camaro shield and add T-tops I think it would be nice.

This is a little too over-the-top retro for me, but is still a great looking car... Good thing is that this interior would be impossible to put into a mainstream production car so it'll never happen.

I'm happy to see a modern car with retro cues as opposed to a retro car with modern cues. I also like that the car stands apart and not get a production standard interior. Wouldnt it be neat to have a more unique interior then the corvette.....

The pontiac GTO really stands apart from the rest of the cars GM sells in the US- the unique controls and interior features are something I hope to see in the Camaro.

I think the consensus is great exterior but horrible interior.

Nah I love that interior. if the interior functions as well as a modern car's interior then the retro look is better for sure

I hated the interior at first. But now I realize if they just get rid of the hideous orange I'll find it much more attractive.

I'm with you. They just need to tone down that interior and if like bruno said it works as well as a modern cockpit then I'm all for the retro look.

Oversized square tach and speedo are what really bother me more then anything, the orange I think would be fine (assuming you could make it whatever color you want) if those the car had a more traditional tach area,..

Here is a red theme.. doesn't seem to jump out at the eyes..

the interior looks great but your not remembering..............." its a concept" of course the interior is goign t be flashy. they were triing to get people attention and they did it. the seats are awesome. i like the stearing wheel. the gauges and everythign fit it perfect. but everything will likely change because it is a concept
