What? 160 isn't fast enough??? I think it is plenty... For a V6

looks like GM is dropping the ball on quality - the little car that had the trunk & hood open looks NOTHING like the Camaro! Make the dang thing LOOK LIKE THE CAMARO!!!! AAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHH!

They should even make it look like the Camaro with the hockey stick stripes if you get that option......

ok - rant is over.......

Much better pictures USA1, THANKS. In another thread about the "MENU" button they mention the gauges switching from KPH/MPH, Deg F/Deg C, etc. I noticed on your first RS picture looks to me to say km/h. Interesting. I was wondering if the ranges could change but since kilometers are shorter (55MPH close to 70KPH) you'd think the numbers would go up not down. Apparently the V6's only go to 160.

Hockey stripes are going to be available. That's how I understood it during the Indy presentation.

Please tell me that the hideous font used on the SS gauges at Indy aren't production. Those are downright ugly. The first pics of the V6 gauges look good.

I liked the way they look.

I think the only difference is the red vs blue ring on the outside of the guage - and I think that depends on the interior ambient light kit u get

+1


The gauge font on the v6 look infinitely classier and the blue matching ring was much better, IMHO, than the red. Thank god these are only 90% cars. The chunky cartoon font on the SS is so Back to the Future II/Star Trek it's not even funny. Remember, those were the fonts that people thought were futuristic in the 80's and 90's. The RS font is nice and uncluttered and has a classic look to it.

C'mon GM. Class it up a lil' and use the RS font across the range.

If you get that upset over a centimeter long LCD graphic, then you, sir, need to get your priorities in line.
