Camaro Convertible being sold in Abu Dhabi (no, not by GM) - Camaro Forum - 2011 Camaro 2010 Camaro / Camaro Z28 SS Forums

Tran · 01-28-2010, 10:42 PM

The production Camaro convertible is not set to enter production until next year and it's only ever been spotted in test mule form, but a luxury car dealership ("Pricesscar") in Abu Dhabi currently has Camaro SS droptop for sale. As far as we know, Abu Dhabi doesn't yet possess future time travel technology, so this is most likely a one-off built by independent builders such as Drop Top Customs or NCE.

ehh, looks like crap in my opinion. the top boot, third brake light, and xm antenna all look like crap! i think they could have done better....atleast on the top boot and antenna location!

chevydrvr · 01-28-2010, 11:00 PM

Yeah, i agree, the antenna is just in a random place just to have it somewhere, and the cover needs to be tighter, or made of some type of solid plastic, instead of fabric of whatever it's made of. Other than that, looks pretty nice!

MyIBMssRS · 01-28-2010, 11:05 PM

I'd have to agree with everyone so far. Looks like a rush job, fit and finish is very poor.

Sweet Lola · 01-28-2010, 11:06 PM

Looks like someone "fixed it" with Spicoli's Dad's tools in their garage. Not impressed.

svtjackal · 01-29-2010, 02:14 AM

hope the production does not look like that,
the shape of the trunk lid looks weird in that vert camaro

Steve@Subthump · 01-29-2010, 08:26 AM

x2 with everyone else's opinion thus far. Why didn't they integrate the 3rd brake light into the spoiler instead sticking it on top of the trunk lid? Seems like it's a little hidden behind the spoiler this way.

CamaroPR · 01-29-2010, 08:54 AM

Ugly ugly!

Bowtie Guy Z28 · 01-29-2010, 08:55 AM

Looks like they used a plastic tarp for the top

and glued on a brake light

! I'm sure the production will look 100X better than that.

shad2009 · 01-29-2010, 08:56 AM

CRAAAAAAAAAAP

i think the only way i'd like it is if it were a hard top, i h8 soft tops

armysig · 01-29-2010, 09:23 AM

Damn, I guess they just couldn't wait. I wonder what the mark up on it is...

*Camaro_Corvette* · 01-29-2010, 09:55 AM

Where do you come up with this stuff?

thedonkeyslayer · 01-29-2010, 10:05 AM

I agree w/all above - I'm not at all impressed by this effort

PQ · 01-29-2010, 10:11 AM

Eenie meenie miney mo. Where should the antena go.

Maybe antenna in the middle of the rear deck lid and the light integrated into the spoiler?

BUUUUUUUTTTTTTTT they got $$$$ over there. I'm sure they'll fetch a good price.

jsharp · 01-29-2010, 10:12 AM

uhhh not sleek enough. Im not liking that setup at all.

Victory1 · 01-29-2010, 10:17 AM

GM - take note and learn from someone else's botched job!

Morepwr · 01-29-2010, 11:41 AM

fail. That boot looks terrible.

Xp0gam3r · 01-29-2010, 11:44 AM

They're reminding me of the mustang >_<

Wvallediego · 01-29-2010, 11:48 AM

Awful, dispicable, terrible,. GM don't make the same mistake and come out with a pill of crap like such...........It might make GM go under again.

I think I could have done a better job in my garage my jacksaw and ducktape.

Black SSnake · 01-29-2010, 11:51 AM

Thats just wrong ! They ruined a fine SS

chevydude26 · 01-29-2010, 11:55 AM

From my iPhone the car looks beautiful. The only thing that isn't attractive is the black tarp and the antennae but the profile looks great and I can't wait to see gm's version.

The car looks great

IOM-SS · 01-29-2010, 11:59 AM

1. i want the hard top what did they do with it?
2. i remember signing agreement that i would not export my camaro. how did they export it?
3. almost looks like when i am so tired when i put my tent up just say the heck with it sleep under the stars.
