2009 2010 Camaro SS prototype in silver (6/21)

[Camaro Lives On]

I have only one question, and if its already been asked, I didnt see it, because I read all 9 pages, but, what happened to the headlights from the vert that we saw?? The lights that are on here seem almost like the lights off of BB from the first TF movie, which I liked, A LOT, but i liked the lights from the 'vert A LOT too. I was just wondering where the 'vert halos went?

QUESTION FOR CAMERO!

Will we get the option of the base bumper with the SS?

I'm 50/50 on the new bumper until I get a better look. But if you could please ease my mind a bit here. Everything else looks absolutely PERFECT in every way!

Just need to know. Could we get the base bumper with the SS? Let me know.

Thanks Camero for all you hard work and patience.

That car looks almost perfect, I want the SS badges to completely replace the Chevy Badges! Thanks for the photos!

I'll bet. I don't mind them there, so to me it's like a speck of dust on the Mona Lisa...who cares?

Now for those of you who dont like the front bumper...Its what we are getting 90% of us like it, you other 10% can grab a V6 bumper or an after market to fix it.

So STOP being some spoiled little brats who cry when you dont get your way and give some respect to the people who worked hard for the past few years to give you this car.

"Give us this car" ... well ... "sell us this car", they are probably working hard as we all do in our jobs, but they don't do it for glory ... or the Camaro will be available for free ... then I wouldn't complain anymore ...

If they plan on selling the car, then I feel like we have a little right to complain included in the price, don't you think?

+1

Guess I'll do the same, at least I imagine we'll be able to buy an SS and ask to dealer to replace the bulmper with the V6' one.

But I agree, the V6 bumper looks so much sporty and mean than the V8' one.

And by the way, even if some serious insiders post on this forum, I'll wait for official things tho ... I have trust but not so much into people who know Ford people read camaro5 too and may release a lot of things just to mistake the competitors.

Thx! Good news.

Overall, the car looks good, all these details I don't like will be possible to change with aftermarket. So no worries, general shape is good, details are removable

What's with all the whining about the front bumper? There's nothing wrong with it, other than the fact that the bass ackwards state of Ohio requires a front license plate

Yeah Bumblebee and the concepts were made from the same molds... they are basically identical. Sorry I can't do a list of dimensional comparisons between the concept and production models but they are a LOT closer than people think. Mostly, the final design is just thicker and chunkier so that it will hold people etc. The concept is nearly impossible to sit in and that'd get old pretty fast if you owned it.


Yeah unless they're tall.

I will not get a sunroof. I rarely use the one I got now. I like the mohawk, it's Corvette looking. Great looking car. If the G8 with the same suspension is any indication of handling, it will blow the doors off of any competition. Make mine black or dark blue with silver stripes. Painted stripes not cheap vinyl like the mustang started out.

It was so long ago and involved so many legal, practical, engineering and styling considerations that most of it's forgotten by now. Just know that they are there because of a mistake, not a design choice and nobody's happy about it but all the complaining in the world won't help at this point. In person you hardly notice them though because the rest of the car turned out so nice. (I'm just glad that the whining about the gas cap is over!)

Don't worry about it Camero.....overall it looks great. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made. I think part of the problem with the nitpicking is the fact that we get new info in such small pieces we tend to focus on very small details that normally wouldn't get much attention.Once these people get thier hands on one they will forget all about those lights. Then only the Mustang guys will notice them! I say you and the team have done an excellant job and the fate of the Camaro is in the right hands. Lets get this done, my 69 is lonely in the garage. I can't wait to get my hands on one. I just got a new vinyl cutter and I'll be making a lot of different stripes and emblems for these things.
