I am not a big fan of convertibles, but the new Camaro looks pretty nice as one. I think Chevrolet needed to make it, to keep the public happy. I hope they sell plenty.

What is wrong with selling another version of the Camaro, that can only help to keep Chevrolet viable, to produce more cool cars!

I like it with the top down....with the top up, it doesn't really look good. With that being said, I have a 92 RS 25th Anniversary convertible which I love and I would not mind having a convertible 5th gen also. I would just keep the top down all the time...gotta love CALI, good weather most of the time!!

don't like the third brake light, XM antenna and the way it takes away from the quarter panels. Also soft top after a few years and this will another vert that we all make fun of because of the bubble that occurs in the middle of the roof when driving.

The car definately loses something (its edgy muscular look) with the top up. Top down its looks pretty good (what I expected). But I'm a little disappointed by the looks of the car when the top is up.

I'm a die hard Camaro guy. But, not really into convertables. However, I love the 5th Gen in any form. It's a gorgeous car. The convertable is no exception.

Yay for sure, but needs to be available in 1LS & 1SS trim levels as well as SGM as an optional color.

I personally have never liked convertibles. Takes away from the natural look of the body. I mean ya I guess you can get more air but, ehhh I dunno not for me. But some people love em so, just different opinions I guess. But god the non convertible camaro looks soooooooooooo bad ass, why would you want to ruin it by getting a vert.

I'm pretty damn girly and you couldn't pay me to drive a convertible anything.

I grew up in Florida and the only people driving verts were men with grey hair.

why or why not?

i personally think the camaro is too much muscle to be a Vert..it jus takes away from..CAMARO.
It looks good with its top down and being in so-cal most of the time I can keep it down so it be fun car to have.

I like the look with the top down, not fond of the top up, wish there was a retractable or removable hardtop for it, I might like it more. Wouldn't trade mine for the vert version.

T-tops or a Corvette style removable roof would be awesome. I like the convertible, though. I could sit in the back seat if there was no roof! I have to pay a neighbor kid to get in there and clean the inside of the rear window.

I like it.
Would I ever buy one? Probably not.
Is it going to help in sales? Most definitely.

The Mustang just got some more competition.
