Woohoo! The 6th Gen is coming! Let me make this educated guess: It will not be offered in any shade of BLUE. Period!:facepalm:
|
Just hope it doesn't look like the butt ugly 90's Camaro. Huuuuula
|

I've heard whispers that it may revolve around the look of gen 4?...... :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: |

I think they're going to do what ford did and try to evolve the current design. But then again, seeing what they want to do with the vette, they might just go revolutionary again Damn I just contradicted myself lol Still gonna go with what I first said. Evolving the current design while being smaller, lighter and more efficient in power and fuel economy And I'm sure the SS will be a v8 |
Unless the base V8 is pushing 475hp and under $40k MSRP I'll likely skip the next gen. and pick up a 2015 special edition :emoticon2:
|
So I have 3 more years to beat on my SS. Cool.
|
Who cares what it is going to look like? I think they perfected it's look in this generation, I really don't want them to change it.
|
I have a lot of faith in GM and anticipate a repeat of the Gen1/Gen2 transition. Two great models that were totally different. The cool thing is the Gen5 as already without a doubt but it's mark in car styling history. We're driving living legends !!!!!

I can not believe this isn't on the home page. Spy shot at a show of the next Camaro. Now this is just a mock up but you can see the lines. http://www.google.com/imgres?um=1&hl...:0&tx=76&ty=72

In reading one of the Camaro books, which details the Gen 1-4 pretty well and has a lot of nice photos, there are elements from all previous generations in the current one.
I'd like to see the next one take more cues from the 70-73 body style, at least with the front end that I really like more than the 1st gen's. http://www.che265.com/images/camaro2nd-1.jpg Translate some of these curves into some nice hard body lines to reflect or to improve upon the new Corvette design, and you would still have the 5th gen looking awesome, but the 6th gen also looking awesome as well. http://cache.jalopnik.com/assets/ima...164ca05252.jpg |
2016 would be fine with me. I just hope that leaves enough time for a fifth gen Z28, and enough time for me to get one, a blue one. :)

I hope the 6th gen. won't deviate too much in design, if at all, from the 5th gen. Smaller and lighter with an engine upgrade and I'm in like Flint! |
I was looking forward to a return to the Gen 2 styling.

Excluding the 4th gen anyway, that was a huge step down from the car before it. |

1st and 3rd gen really do. What we need to see is the same radical change that came with the 3rd gen. The chassis design, the new body molding techniques found in that rear hatch glass. The emphasis on streamlining as seen with the raked windshield (which was nutso for the time). 4th gen, just a RWD sport coupe. The Trans Am ran with that generation easily. Just need to look back at what made the 1969 and 1982 Camaros great game changers. Moreso the 1982. |
I'm good with my 5th gen unless they have one that makes 700 hp and gets 50mpg lol
|
I wanna see something a little smaller, maybe 200 lbs lighter with a 475 HP V8 and a 350 HP V6 give or take a few. I like the current interior, but less plasticy stuff would be nice. The exterior of the Camaro already looks amazing, so maybe just a little refresh would be good. I will be waiting for the 2017/18 ZL1!
|
So, sounds like the next Mustang beats the next Camaro by two years.

Where as the 2016 Camaro could be released as a 2017 MY car in mid '16 to harken back to how it was originally released 50 years prior as well. Not to mention if GM wants to go all out and pull off a radical change like they did in '82, I'd say take the extra two years and curbstomp the Ford design team. Thing is though, Ford has indicated in the past that the D2C platform that underpins the 05-current car isn't going anywhere by 2014-2015. So it remains to be seen just how flexible the D2C platform is for Ford and whether or not they'll capitalize on their refined SRA or go to an IRS. Something GM could also capitalize on: Developing a super light weight IRS design for both the ATS-V and the Camaro SS. |
I'd like to see a V6 for us Fuel cost saving people that still want some POWER when needed > All the juice and no seeds. Say twin Turbos like the LENO Sema car. V6 with 426 horse power and still get 30MPG not thats what we NEED.
