Wait!!! They are building an all electric Camaro?!?!?!
Actually, I'd buy a hybrid....I said it before and I'll say it again. As long as the go pedal makes it LOUD AND FAST, I'd take one. BTW, I have a good feeling that pic was doctored before being released by GM. I recall something being said, or hinted to rather, a while back by Scott about the gas cap. We were complaining about the b-pillar and I had mentioned moving on to the gas cap...somehow...and in some way, I was told not to worry about it. I have a good feeling it could stay put...maybe they doctored the pic to keep it a suprise? Dragon, I'm pretty sure you remember something about this, right? |

I remember it, it was something like "who said the gas cap has been moved"

Yeah...I know it was said...or something to that effect. And, I could swear it was Scott. I'm going to have to do some digging...

I figure it's a 50/50 chance the gas cap stays where it was on the concept. It's not this is a brand-new idea. Cars have had them at 45 deg angles...they have them on slants in the body lines. Hell - I've seen one where a body crease went right through it. |

The only problem I see with a rear quarter panel mounted filler lid is the possibility of rain water, snow or ice getting into the tank. Don't get me wrong, I love the idea and think it ought to stay; the lid should just be flush with the body so to speak. I would hate to stand there and use all the paper towels at 7-11 just to soak up rain water.

Hey! You stole the words right outta my mouth!
Yeah...I wouldn't want a pool of water sitting in the gas cap location either when I try to go to filler up. Better yet, why in the world not just tap a hole on the side of the gas cap to allow the water to drain. I'm sure GM has thought of something like that. Just build it in a way where the water can drain into/under the panel. It'll still work fine. |

The SSR concept went through several changes also. Mirrors were added from the Vette, gas cap location was moved, interior was changed quite a bit. The concept's body was wider and lower to the ground. The production SSR, not so much. Rear lights and tailgate changed. All in all I love the new Camaro and it would look awesome sitting next to my SSR in the garage. In orange!
