Can the house find it in its heart to forgive me? I searched and searched for a school with a Camaro as the mascot but I couldn't find any, honest.

I suspect the new Stang will push a few buttons and break a few barriers down. Simply that ford isn't plowing money into a Camaro AND Corvette should be an indicator.

I was told in another thread that the Camaro is a big loss for GM, I cant believe that. At a $3K profit per Camaro which is maybe an 8% per car profit it would be over a billion dollars.

I know when I talked with Al O. thanking him profusely for the 1LE package he avoided the question, "how in the hell could GM offer so much for so little?"

If you're asking me I say better. I am waiting to see these tail lights blacked out.

2C, can you 'shop that pic with some rectangular tail pipes, to match roughly the shape of the rear lights, using the stock opening?

BTW, that's a view many cars will get on a road course...

If someone came up with a plate surround that incorporated the backup lights, one on each side of the plate...

It was purposely angled towards the lights. The shadow on the right side makes it look out of shape. The lights are the same just tinted.
