Yeah,.....

I was worried from the get-go, that the Camaro will look Fat and plasticy from the rear...like the (cough) cobalt (cough). Pretty none the less, but the fact remains. Looking again at that rear-view I posted, it doesn't, at all!

Good!

I Hate to burst your bubble Moose but the gt500 is only slightly slower than the c6 annd its atleast 5-6 grand cheaper. plus you can drive it daily because it is more confortable and you can seat 4 in it. ALSO ford already fixed that problem adding the kr and supersnake..... the kr with 540hp and the supersnake with either 600 or 725 hp.

I can make a 10 second pinto by dropping 6 grand into the powertrain. It's cheaper and will outperform most 80 grand + supercars. What of it?

Z06, Hell, C6 has my Vote. Unfortunately the GT500 is a bit of a joke to me. I used to respect the Shelbys...now, I equate GT500 with the word "fat" whenever it's mentioned.

You cant ignore the power of the Supersnake. All they really did was replace the supercharger parts and they boosted up to 600-720 whp on a completely stock GT500. The only thing is, the highest HP Supersnake wont be offered with factory warranty.

I've never ignored the power of any Mustang, I just always think they can do better.
The supersnake is a step in the right direction, I guess. But instead of having another version, why not do it right the first time in the GT500, you know?

I like the Mustang, but I think that with the lack of competition, Ford has gotten lazy.

Every picture has shown those, and I don't see why they would/should change them. I'm all for it.

Somebody at some point said they wouldn't make it...and I ask...Why the Hell not? they could be butterflies, or daisy shaped, will it affect Seatbelt integrety? No!

Because they are all metal. Metal heats up in the car during hot or sunny days and you burn the hell out of yourself when you MUST touch them to put them on. It would be a deterrant to put them on if you know you are going to get burned everytime you have to touch your seatbelt.

At least, that's what I heard....

The top part could be plastic to grip it. The buckle will be away from your body and unless you're not wearing underwear/pants/shorts/sweats your skin won't be anywhere near it. All seat belts are metal buckles, but some like mine in the eclipse have just a plastic piece near the top of the buckle so you can grip it.

Mine are hard plastic. The ones in the concept are metal. If you can still get that metal look w/out them heating up, that'd be cool. I'd go for that anyday.
