I'm REALLY diggin' the spoiler.....A LOT! It looks very 2nd Gen-ish to me.

It's probably not functional like the ZL1's, but I actually like the appearance of it better than the ZL1's.

I would love LED Taillights on the North American Spec Camaro but not like those. Exact same LED Style but in the same shape as what we have now and all red instead of only outlined

Those mirrors are brutal, but the European governments know what's best... Just be glad we don't have those regulations here.

Anywhoo........

"Klaus" is a CTF unit owned by the Performance Car Team - he's "European" meaning that he was built for markets within the European Union. There are many under-the-skin differences as well as some that aren't under the skin.....

From the outside, headlamp washers, specific side mirrors (really big!) with integral turn signals and running lights -- tow hook cutouts, and of course, a very different taillamp appearance. I know some were horrified when the pics of a yellow one appeared on the internet - but let me say that the appearance in person is much better (...isn't it always??) and I like it! (I came up behind him a week ago on an interstate - another member was driving him - and I was captivated by the difference that the taillamps and spoiler make......)

No OnStar.....:eek:

Radio is in different Hz -- and of course the Speedometer is in Kilometers --

He's an LS3 tuned for the european market (fuel) -- and of course, he's ALL CAMARO!!!

I'll only have him for a short period of time - but I'm very much looking forward to every mile!

Finally a test model in IBM
... also, the 1st picture I've seen of the Dove Tail in IBM as well. Thinking about this option again.
Euro Tail lights remind me of Chester Cheeto's sunglasses especially if they end up getting blacked out.
... reflectors above tailpipes perhaps, but oversized Mirrors look out of place for this size of vehicle. If I'm not mistaken, there was a company on here that did turn signal conversions for the standard mirrors which looked so much better IMHO.

I must ask as to why the standard pace cars' amber outside and red inside light setup wasn't used instead of spending money on redesigning the whole ass end??

I like the spoiler and the tails. I bought the GM dove tail for mine though...so I'm partial.
