I never said you were an idiot. Calm down.

After looking closer at the pics in the original post you made, I kind of like the lower right picture on pic #1 of 8. It looks hungry, a cross between a shark and a a tiger. Something definitely ready to eat a Mustang.

*EDIT* I just don't like the wheels.

Obviously we will see a new platform. I hope they retain some of the classic Camaro look. Some things I would like to see: A few more performance options...i.e. diff ratios, cai, wheels/tires. Something to differentiate the models a little more...i.e. something only an SS can have, only an LT can have etc. More interior colors.

Alright, sorry. I just don't see how having a different opinion doesn't make me a car enthusiast.
Sorry for being a dick.
Anyway, yeah. It looks hungry to eat a mustang. Or anything for that matter.
I'd like to see this concept with the new Z28 style wheels.

Yeah, each trim having it's own thing would be nice instead of the SS only having the good stuff. Another thing I want to see is every trim having the "mean" look like the SS has.

I guess sometimes without the visual interpretation of people's responses to posts on here it's difficult to gauge what people are actually saying.

Communication is somewhere around 90% verbal. My apologies for any misunderstandings.

I would really love this. I would love for every camaro to have a SS front bumper and dovetail spoiler, but this won't happen. They have to have enough cosmetic diffrence to

1. Make people want those cosmetic differences(ie. look meaner)

2. Make people realize what model it is. Who wants their ss to look like an LS? No one. Who want their LS to look like an SS(from the factory anyway) everybody lol.

It would be nice just not logical from a business standpoint.

Exactly. Imagine if chevy made all trims have the SS look. So many people would be buying the cheaper trim instead of the most expensive trim. Except for the hardcore people who want more power.

I don't expect to like the 6th gen... for whatever reason it seems the odd generations are more to my liking. I hope I'm pleasantly surprised.

Having said that, T-tops need to come back. I know they tried this time around and just couldn't make it work... but its really the best middle ground between hardtop and ragtop IMO.


As for the 5th gen not being memorable or a classic... there's only been a handful of cars in the history books that had as much anticipation and excitement surrounding it as this car, and all of those are still as desirable and sought after as they were when new, I don't think the 5th gen will be any different. How many other cars you can think of sold 15000 to people who'd never seen a production version or drove one?

Very subtle cosmetic changes, change a few lines maybe add some LEDs. Shave some weight and add more power = Winner. And of course the latest and greatest tech features.

Push button ignition
Keyless entry (button on door to unlock, no need to even ouch the key)
One or two storage areas (perhaps behind the NAV/touchscreen)
Less heavy
Push button ignition
Orange, medium blue (Kinetic!), and matte black color choices
Better yet, a cool chromatic paint choice like the special green Hot Wheels edition car
A suspension option that allows for ride height and firmness adjustability
Push button ignition (did I already say this?)

No bells and whistles. Those things are not meant to be in hot rods or sports cars.
In the looks dept. American muscle not some euro- type crap.
