It is flying!!!!! This video gives a better idea of how fast its really going.

I do want this car. I love to see her in motion. I'm thinking that I wanted the Top dog, but think if this is the standard V8. I'll be quite happy. I think it will be best bang for your Buck.

To get the top dog I would have to wait longer than I think I can.. If the top dog is available for ordering on day 1, I will get one, however if not, I will be more than happy with the 430HP V8..

@ the 1:28 she shows you what she's got... the 'maro is quuuuuuick!

*DGthe3* · 05-30-2008, 11:56 PM

Pure awesomeness. Nothing else to say

Camaroman_99 · 05-31-2008, 05:12 AM

Need to chime in.... I still like it! That video does seem to show the 5th gen going a little faster

Handles pretty good too. I too would like the see the rear end hung out some

Thanks for any tidbits that are shared.

Holy crow! That video was really good...even better than the last one, IMO. He ran up the curb and got a little air w/ that front left tire. But, did you see how when it came down, it still stuck to the ground like glue?!?!

GREAT VIDEO!!! MUCH BETTER!

Yeah, Merf....who's smokin' crack now?!?!

Congoman775 · 05-31-2008, 12:10 PM

Good point. This footage gives the viewer enhanced and probably a more realistic perspective.

Deff not a slow car on the track.

2 things, :notheadlights: and, NOT THE V6

From those clip shots , it is attacking the track a little more aggressive.
It looks to be about a 10 minute lap time ifthe driver holds the tempo. but then a gain these are only clip shots. But I will say this though that suspension needs a lot more work if the new Camaro wants to lay down a respectable time at the Nordschleife. Way too much roll and movement.
Maybe this car needs a 1LE option available to it?

Camaro Lives On · 06-01-2008, 01:42 PM

I might get killed for saying this, but I have to....

Is it me or do the headlight and turn signal set up look very nice from a distance and at speed? I really do light the tri light setup, looks coolio....Please dont kill me
