My wish list after owning a 2011 LS and now owning a 2012 1LT RS:

1. ATS platform (lighter)

2. twin turbo v6

3. better exhaust - take notes from the CORSA V6 system

4. More a la carte options - limited slip diff in auto v6, gear ratios, suspension choices (sport,cruise, etc) and definitely a firmer shift for the auto.

Based upon the current industry trends and what consumers want since we are a have our cake and eat it too society, more power, higher crash test ratings, more safety features and higher fuel economy….

In order for the 6th Gen to meet those goals and show some significant weight loss from the current Camaro it will have to be developed as a smaller vehicle than it is now.

Janet, that's a fair question...but in response, I would ask the Camaro Team how much they are willing (and feasibly can) make optional on the sixth generation car. Obviously, every car-maker is moving more and more towards packages, and combining features into one big option to decrease complexity and lower costs...so I'm not asking for an a la carte checklist...but I'd be willing to pay some extra $$ to have a few more options.

I don't know how grounded in reality this request is...but I hope my thoughts came through coherently.

The Gen5 was made with a convertible in mind. Make the Gen6 with a T-top or targa roof in mind. This was my 6th Camaro, low on power but great on looks for '80. Functional hood scoop was also fun, maybe bring it back too and listen to it suck in the air.

This is a question that we have posed regularly, I will bring it up again & see what they have to say. Yes, I understood

This render is awesome. And I'd prefer evolutionary styling with a futuristic edge. The render is exactly that.

First of all the sun visors in my 2010 are laughable, but I understand why they are the way are. They should be improved. Interior lighting is also very limited. I believe there's a dealer installed option for foot well lighting, make this a factory installed standard as well as add some lighting on the rear interior passenger area. I don't know if the front passenger seat in the 2011 - 2013 make you feel like you're sitting in a hole but the do seem to sit lower than the drivers seat. Folding mirrors would also be a nice addition.

how about

bringing back the cigarette lighter, not just the "accessory" outlet. or ashtrays? Bring back rear window louvres, and putting vinyl back on top of the cars. Oh, and move the bright switch back to the floor, to the left of the brake/clutch pedals.

It is being developed on the smaller/lighter Alpha platform, what don't you understand about that??

Chrome wheel finish in addition to polished aluminum and black. More color options for stripes and the interior, and by more, I mean red. . Love the red interior shown on the C7.

Better gloss protection Swirls are way to easy to get , We all like to keep them clean , most are smart enough to use new good quality micro fiber . yet it still happens , throw about 5 coats of the clear on . or whatever helps you guys should know what works best. also more power outlets that stay on without the key on.
