Very true. Honestly, I've rarely EVER seen a newborn that was cute...

Dual Exhaust was an option. My '02 V6 had it. It also had a few other things included that I honestly forget. Only one I remember was tighter steering (which I loved, but others always commented on how much effort it took to turn the wheel). I hope either the new Camaro has nice tight steering, or at least has the option. |

Just to answer your question, most European cars have the gas cap on the passenger side for two reasons. (most Japanese cars also have the gas cap on the passenger side in their domestic configuration)
1) If you run out of gas and stop on the side of the road, you can refill the tank safety on the curbside. 2) While pulling up to the pump, you won't have to worry about opening the door too far and hitting the island. I personally don't care for those reasons too much, but I've noticed that most cars w/ the gas cap on the right side are higher-end cars (e.g. Audi, BMW, Infiniti, Jaguar, Mercedes, Porsche). Naturally there are fewer of them on the road, so it's usually easier to find an available pump on the right side (assuming that all cars enter the station in the same direction). |

Oh, and as far as being confused about what side it is on, I am very thankful GM has taken the simple step of including an arrow on the gas gauge to help you out. Coming back from England and driving my car for the first time in months, I actually forgot for a moment and the arrow helped. Thanks GM for doing something everyone should do just out of common sense. |

The cap's on the passengers side on my CTS. No biggie. I still would like it on top of the left shoulder, but hey, I want cut out vents too, functional or not, but that's just me.

1. I never let the gas get that low (I've never run out of gas...). If the gas gauge gets low, you just pull up to the pump. Filler'up.
2. Yes, I hate that part about being careful w/ the door at the pump. But, you would be just as careful any other time...at Walmart getting out next to another car, at the grocerty store, etc, etc, etc,...no different. |

I think it kinda boring.
It nothing near the concept vehicle. What that little light bellow the red lens? Backup lens? If so, dumb looking. Think the golf clubs will fit in the trunk? Maybe yours, but not your wife or your buddy clubs. Both Challenger and Mustang are way ahead of the Camaro in styling. |

As far as the trunk space goes, it goes back fairly far as near as I can tell. It also looks reasnably wide, not sure how deep it is but the Camaro has a pretty thick back end so I don't imagine that will be a problem either. The problem is that it will have a small opening. Overall, it will have a nice sized trunk for a performance car.
