I know this is kind of a pointless topic, but I'm curious. Not only that, I'm trying to kill time as I await the arrival of one of the best cars that will ever hit the market.

My first time seeing pictures was in 2004. I remember doing a search because I was so positive GM would not stand idle by and watch Ford own the muscle car market. I typed in "2007 Camaro prototype", and sure enough, the pictures were everywhere. They were not the ones we are all used to seeing now (concept, bumblebee, etc...) but they were sweet! I knew right then and there that I must have one. They were, however, a bit more retro than the beautiful concept we've all grown to love, but they were unique, fierce looking, and they had MUSCLE CAR written all over them. I fell in love.

I wanted to propose to it right away, but it was only speculation and photo shopping at that point. I knew in the back of my mind that GM had to be working on the Camaro at that point.

These were some of the pics I came across. (yes, I know some of these are re-posts, but that's partially the point of this post).

Post some pictures if you've got 'em. I'd love to see them if I haven't already!
