Ha ha this is funny to me. I remember when those pictures first came out a few years ago, and most people thought they were so awesome. I actually did too, but now that the concept is out. The concept/production will look sooooooooooooo much better.

the car looks very sad....

These are on the site somewhere, I can't find them tough. Those pictures are one of those things that simply don't get better with age. I saw them when they came out, and I didn't like them. Now, I still don't like them.

No disrespect to him. Some designs make it and some don't. I remember seeing that design years ago when I was looking for concept Camaro stuff. I ran across it and said, "I"ll have to pass on this upcoming Camaro." It was just my personal opinion. I know a lot of guys on another site raved about it.

Personally, I LOVE the design of the increadibly shiny all black 5th Gen he's got in front of that brick wall....you know....the lowered one w/ a lil' larger spoiler in the back? That was awesome!

i like the red one that hasnt been posted

*Camaro_Corvette* · 05-29-2008, 08:47 AM

I think it has some real nice body lines, but the front is hideous to me..

The top picture isn't all that bad. The thing looks like it should be the size of a solstace, and if GM is going to build a chevy of the Kappa plateform, then just re-do the greenhouse and it'd be ok. The bottom one is just ugly...leave those nasty grills for the high school bad asses in their V-6, I will take the blackout grill.

I remembered seeing a lot of those renderings, and most of them were ugly at worst, and meh at best. None of them really got me at all. I'm one of the rare people here that's not been much of a GM person historically, and to me those renderings were just a, "oh, that's nice, oh well" kind of thing.

However, when the first pics of the Camaro concept leaked out though, I instantly fell in love with it. Instantly. I immediately knew that it would be my next car.

It's amazing what kind of power a tight design can have

All of these designs just say one thing to me: "Trying too hard."

The concept just looks like it looks right with no effort.
