Totally agree on the liftback design.

Liftback/sportback type designs make a lot of sense for this type of vehicle. It allows for more efficient use of space, gives better storage space flexibility and promotes an aerodynamically efficient design.

DOHC eng. are top heavy, too big and don't have low end torque. The Ford 5.0 is physically bigger than the Chevy 6.2. |

I personally wouldn't even consider buying a liftback! I love my "18" and aside from gen 1, I think it's the best looking Camaro yet.

DOHC engines rev higher and are much better for boost. The current generation of SBC engines will be the last generation of pushrod engines for GM. The 6th generation of engines will be DOHC, and, as far as I know, turbochargers will replace superchargers on high-performance engines like the LT4 and LT5. Quinten and I have a pretty good idea of what's to come, but we could be wrong...

Yea, that's gonna be a no from me on the liftback. Can't stand that design.
Want a hatchback, buy a hatchback, leave the Camaro alone. I'm hoping for more options, more colors, more customization. Seems like they are trimming the more bright colors, not counting that weird shock green/yellow they made. |

The 3rd and 4th gen car had glass hatches. Do the Audi S5 or Kia Stinger look abnormal? IMO they look great. A lot of people don't like the current trunk opening - The car could literally look the same, but the trunk and rear glass area would move up as one to reveal more usable space. I don't see the downside to a lift back.
