actually, i would rather have both.

Yeah Camaro looks way better. This looks too much like the new 400z. Yeah I know Camaro looks a little like the Mustang, Vette, Charger but at least those are all American cars. An American car looking like a Japanese car just doesnt feel right to me. And the last thing Chevy wants to come across as is a Nissan wannabe.

I see how the front end has some of the original 4th generation shapes. It kind of looks like a 4th generation cross-bred with a new Eclipse. Those cars were never meant to be together.

That thing looks like it should fly.

XtremeBowtie · 07-10-2008, 01:01 PM

It's a nice looking car, but I don't like it near as much as the Camaro!

fredi91 · 07-10-2008, 01:03 PM

i dunno...the retro camaro or the modern SS? i know i'm getting a Camaro, but there are same very nice lines on the SS. i'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to make it a 4 door and have it replace the impala!!

theholycow · 07-10-2008, 01:10 PM

That probably has a really low drag coefficient...

chevydude26 · 07-10-2008, 01:50 PM

if they could make it a sedan and make it more square in the back instead of that horrible rounded look

and maybe market it like some sort of family car

Iroczlover · 07-10-2008, 01:57 PM

thats the ss concept car & believe me if you see it in person its alot better then in photos.

You guys have to see some of these cars up front & very personal to like them alittle better.

AFSNightrod · 07-10-2008, 02:01 PM

I've seen that car twice in person. It is a large car. It's closer to an Impala than a Camaro. It sits really low, but it's about as long as a Maybach, and as wide as a Hummer H2.

Silverado · 07-10-2008, 02:04 PM

I think that concept started the shaping for the Volt personally.

discoteka · 07-10-2008, 02:08 PM

omfg that is hideous..

chevydude26 · 07-10-2008, 02:09 PM

i do see a lot of volt in it...i think the volt if it was priced at 25-30 would sell quite well...but without any tax breaks or subsidies i'm concerned about the volt's 40-50 thousand dollar price...

are you guys going to have your camaro be your daily driver or your weekend warrior and your going to have a cheap daily beater?

i think a volt as your daily car and camaro as the weekend car would be an awesome combination
