An open letter to GM
As a boy, I was obsessed with, and absolutely smitten by, the '69 Z/28, the '70 Boss 302, and the '70 AAR 'Cuda. You can imagine the youthful glee I felt when I saw the Concept Camaro introduced. I was so impressed by the concept cars faithfulness to the '69 Camaro. I was a bit doubtful you would retain the console gauges, or the cool dash layout. I was very glad to see you did. But while I was sweating the details, you went and changed the entire front end with those ugly projector headlights! What the hell were you thinking? That completely changes the character of the car. It no longer resembles the '69, or the concept for that matter. It looks like something from Japan! GM, I am begging you. Get this one right. You were so close. Don't screw it up now. I have been waiting to buy the new Camaro since the debut of the concept. I haven't wanted a car that badly since I was a teen. But hear me now. If you blow this design by building it with those ugly lights, I'll buy that damn Dodge Challenger instead. And I am GM guy! I own a CTS-V and a Sierra 3500! Please retain the concept camaro's headlight and grille design, or I'll have to by a Dodge. Al Bundy drives a Dodge, damnit, so please don't make me do that!
