Does anyone else think this looks awfully damn close?

The shoulder line on the render has too much taper as it moves away from the door. The die is more in line with the 5th gen as that the shoulder line is a flatter curve. My feelings wouldn't be hurt at all if the 6th gen was about the size of the render. It should easily be a few hundred pounds lighter at those dimensions.

Yeah, I dunno....I think if you tilt the die down for a flatter roofline, then the shoulder taper and roof-line would match the render....and the more metal area under the rear passenger window would make sense.... The rear seat sure looks like it takes a hit in the sideview of the rendor...lol... |

As a 7 time Camaro owner, this is disappointing. I'm sure the interior will be upgraded and different. You would think there will be some engine changes. But this is looking more like a major refresh than a new generation. We've seen the Camaro recreate itself 5 times now. Is this the Jim Belushi version of John Belushi?

Based on the camo cars seen, I feel the line on the door needs to be a little lower. The gap between the door handle and the line seems to be the same as the old models.

I like what I am seeing. As to it not being a "6th" gen, remember it is completely new from top to bottom (chassis, body, engines, interior). It may resemble the 5th gen, but it is most certainly a completely new car.
For what it is worth, the 63-82 Corvettes were all based on the same frame and mostly suspension. It is widely accepted that the C2 and C3 Corvettes were different generations simply due to different bodies. |
