Great pics. I just wish the inside of the large spokes were polished as well. So how did it look in person?
thats not a bad deal then...you'll get almost half the money back selling the stock rs rims/tires...only bad thing is they will be some what common versus if you picked out your own from the aftermarker...but either way those rims are sick! if i didnt have a rim i wanted already i'd buy them for the 2k

I'm sorry but there's not one thing I like about any of it. I guess it's kind of hard to improve a great design

wow...ugly

Am I the only one who things that is one of the ugliest cars out there?

Seriously...those stripes look aweful on that color. Those $4k wheels look worse than the ones it came with.

Its an automatic and a 6 cylinder.

I would not want that car....sorry.

Where I live those fat 20's will tear the paint off so I have the mud flaps ordered with Camaro Scotty. The cap is crap in my view. The flat black looks bad on Silver. White looks better.

The GM accessories were specifically designed to allow the car to appeal to as many people as possible. Obviously by the responses here, it's working. I agree with above, just because you don't like a particular look, doesn't mean you need to rain on someone elses parade.

I have to say, I don't like this car... !

The hockey stripes look .. strange..! Not only does the alignment seem off (but it could be the angle), the fact that the strip doesn't go all the way to the back seems wrong, as if the stripe was an after-thought of some kind. Also, the black single stripe on the top is not as nice as 2 top stripes to me.

On the plus side, the interior colors are nice the wheels are AMAZING... Excellent choice!

I usually prefer understating when it comes to car style. Give a hint of Money / Power / Coolness with bigger wheels, avoid too much flash, and the car would be a winner.

Yes yes ok I would still buy it up in a second... but still.. just my minor peeves.

Couldn't agree more!

I cannot figure out why any of the big 3 manufacturers cannot produce a truly good looking set of wheels. The wheels off the concept were awesome but the end product got something a little watered down. Guess that's why we have aftermarket companies!

*Pukes in Mouth* oops sorry....To each their own, now i have to voice my opinion.

1. Stripes/hockey look really cheap and as if you just did something half ass to make your Camaro look different from the others. If you want that look please paint it, you just spent 22k-40k on your car for goodness sake. To much vinyl on this car and you'll look like Johnny Rocket in his 98 Civic.

2. Gas Cap, thought it would look cool but these pics changed my mind. Thought it would fit flush with the body, looks like it sticks out to far.

3. Those wheels.....eeeekkk. Who buys 21" wheels?!!?? Good luck finding a wide selection of rubber for them. They are so ugly to me i dont get how anyone could spend that much money on those. However im glad to see the wheels on the car, was going to get 22s on the rear now i guess i have to go 24" to get the tucked look i want after i lower with coil overs. Let me give you guys some websites to look at for far superior wheels.
www.Budnik.com
www.billetspecialties.com/
http://www.billetwheel.com/
www.lateral-g.net
www.Pro-touring.com

Remember this acronym KISS, Keep It Simple Stupid!! The car looks clean as it is. Just dont want some of you to make costly mistakes with this beautiful automobile carriage. Sometimes you just have to learn the hard way i guess, i sure did many moons ago.

Expensive for sure, but don't forget they come with a set of 21" Pirelli P-Zero... The set of tires alone must be worth at least $1000...

Tried to check on the TireRack.com but they dont even have a single Wheel set or Tires for the Camaro in 21" ... buuuhhhuhuhh.

Nice pics, I don't like the gas cap. The flaps look ok, but belong on something else. I amglad I didn't order the hockey stripes. 2SS/RS CGM, ORDERED 10/20/08 AND STILL IN 1100 STATUS.

I ordered this stripe package and I'm anxious to see it in real life tomorrow. I don't think my order has been pulled yet, so I have time to decide.
