I converted the above inches into millimetres to compare against the monaro


Wheelbase: Camaro (112.3") 2852mm Monaro: 2788mm
Length: Camaro (189.6") 4815mm Monaro: 4789mm
Width: Camaro (75.9") 1927mm Monaro: 1841mm
Height: Camaro (53.8") 1366mm Monaro: 1397mm

From these it's going to be a reasonable size.

Either way, the car is absolutely beautiful - SEX ON WHEELS!!

Can't wait it it hits Oz.

As soon as a brochure is available can someone post it.

Cheers
As Another source of comparison, I know a lot of us here drive Cobalts. I love the smallness and nimbleness of my Cobalt, so I don't want anything too much bigger. Looks like the jump isn't too huge:


Wheelbase: Camaro (112.3") Cobalt: (103.5")
Length: Camaro (189.6") Cobalt: (180.5")
Width: Camaro (75.9") Cobalt: (67.7")
Height: Camaro (53.8") Cobalt: (55.7")

Or consider the Malibu. I consider the Camaro to be a midsize coupe (with the Cobalt as a compact coupe and the late great Monte as a large coupe) so lets see how it stacks up against a midsize sedan:

Wheelbase: Camaro (112.3") Malibu: (112.3")
Length: Camaro (189.6") Malibu: (191.8")
Width: Camaro (75.9") Malibu: (70.3")
Height: Camaro (53.8") Malibu: (57.1")
