August 2014 Issue of Automobile Magazine
Hey everyone. Just picked this issue up in an airport because of a story on the front titled "2016 Camaro: Lighter, Bolder, Stronger". I tried to share this story from their website but could not because it must be too new. Anyone else seen this? The artist rendition is unbelievable because it's based on the possibility of a 2nd gen inspired retro.

Yeah I'm not seeing it yet in the Readr app on the iPad either....but it sounds good....look forward to reading that and seeing the pictures too !
Personally I'd love a 2nd generation inspired car...even if it is unlikely

Agree. This is still my favorite rendering.

I'll be consistent with what I've said for years........another retro Camaro will be a huge failure. If you see one you can hang a sign out that says GM was too afraid to be great or worse has no clue how to be great. A 2nd dip into the retro bowl, particularly into the 70s off all things, will send a huge message of lack of courage and vision.
But JMO

A source on the GM Inside News site had this to say:

Michael Bay is also quoted as saying he saw the car (maybe he did, maybe he didn't, maybe it was just a concept version...who knows) and he says it was smaller.
