Being that the first Camaro I owned was a 3rd gen, I could go for this.

I absolutely loved my 3rd gen
Now if this one only had t-tops...I would buy it.

The overhangs are way too big, and gives it an old-car vibe that I'm not really feeling. And I love Third Gens.

The lack of t-tops is why I went with the 5th gen vert. A sunroof just doesn't cut it.

I do like it. I had a 85' IROC. IMO i wouldn't trade or sell my 5th gen for one if it ever became the 6th gen.

I think the 3rd gen is to modern to re create based upon it; Maybe in 10 more years it will be good. But what they need to do, is create T-Tops on the 5th gen. I miss my T-Tops from my 4th gen. I agree, my sunroof does not cut it!

That is why I went with the vert. as well.
Didn't think I would experience as many top related problems as I have though.
but I must admit,
driving a coupe= okay
driving a vert= priceless!!

I love third gens but I don't care for this 3rd and 5th gen hybrid.

Can't do T-tops on the 5th gen due to modern safety standards.

How are they any worse than a vert or a targa top?
