Ya, all the pictures I saw never made it look as wide as it looked in person or in the video..... if you search for my other you will see how they widened the sway bar as well..... this BEAST is going to grip and rip....


I thought i posted these pictures already, but I guess not...

I think they should try to reroute (hide) some of the hoses in the front of the engine for more aesthetic appeal.

I absolutely LOVE the lights in the doors, and in my convertible that's the first thing people complement me on, but the suede just seems like a step down to leather...in my mind they mights as well have put fuzzy dice, curb feelers, and gold rims on the car...

ok im done with my rant...lol

See below for the results of GM's last "design by consumer committee"! I'll let the pro's do what they do.

Fwiw...there is a group of enthusiasts (affectionately called "the 12 disciples of which there are 15") that provide direct input from the enthusiast community-at-large to the Camaro team.

Then the team mixes their thoughts in with everything else they've got to consider and turns it into reality. It's the first time any manufacturer has done something like this...and it appears to be working great!
