I think GM will go away from the retro 1969 Camaro theme and give the car an original look. I think there will still be some styling cues from the 5th gen but overall it will have a new design. I don't think this is a bad thing either. Like others said above, I think the retro theme in cars today is a fad. I applaude the BIG 3 for going retro but you can't use the same style forever (VW New Beetle, PT Cruiser, etc. are good examples).
MY question is......what drivetrains will the 6th gens have? I have a feeling the 5th gen is the last time we'll see V8's in Camaros, even in the hi-po cars. I'd expect to see turbocharged V6's in the future. Am I right GM?
