Is it true that GM will raise the roof of the camaro 11mm. I think they should its just slightly a bit to low. Like the 15 guys that went to see the camaro they said it was a little small in their. so it can use a lift but is it true? 10mm=1 inch

We don't know the exact number...all we know for sure is that's it's raised.

and 10mm = 1 cm....25.4mm = an inch.

Due to my height - I researched this thoroughly. It's buried in the multitude of threads here.

First off: They raised the roof 15mm from the concept.

See much more info here: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3832

Also, just recently a 6'2" disciple said the car is roomy. Keep reading.

It was something like 13 to 15 mm. I really can't remember now. I'd have to go back a year and see what I typed way back then. I know it was right...whatever it was. But, we are talking about a fraction of an inch....nothing really.

Do we know what the largest wheel options would be? Man, the 21's and 22's really make that concept even more desirable.

79 inches wide?!?! How is that possible when the Challenger in 75ish inches wide and looks much wider than the Camaro side-by-side?

It's likely to have changed in the process of getting production-ready. All measurements so far are the concept's. So at best, it gives a rough estimate of what we should expect.

First of all I would like to say what's up to everyone, this being my first post. Ive been on this site for a while now just enjoying all the new info on my future car but just now have become a member. All I want is around 430hp of raw CAMARO speed for 36k or less and I would be VERY happy. Ive got 30k to put down in March for my mustang destroyer.

Does anyone know, whether the v6 engine offers also that typical muscle car sound as the v8 does?

According to the test group, the V6 has a very respectable exhaust note.
