That said: has anyone EVER seen a 1st Gen Camaro where the headlamp doors align properly?
Also - it adds a ton of weight.
What IS true: lighting comes in several forms today -- does it HAVE to have doors? What about 'hidden' behind grille bars?
I see some good stuff here....but a word of caution: I want you to think about the weight issue. How important is it? Remember -- the car must remain 'refined' as the 5th gen in terms of everyday use - and it must earn a 5-star crash rating. I bring this up because if you look thru the thread - there are many "lose weight!" followed by "Cooled seats" ( +weight!) "Cimate Control" ( ++ weight) "Hideaway headllights" ( + weight!) "T-tops" (++++++++++++++++ weight!) etc.
Take some time and think it thru............we're listening.
(...but while our engineers are amazing, they haven't yet figured out how to change the rules of physics......they're workin' on it...........but...........)

Hmm good point about the weight. Guess we'll just have to fix that with Horsepower!
