Sounds promising... No sunroof?

As with my first Gen5, I will bring my clubs to the dealer when checking out the Gen6.

If I want to go golfing I just take my g8 gt, I bet I can fit like 6-8 sets in there

I've seen them a bit differently. The overlays I mean. Interesting.

The ONLY thing I didn't like about the 5th Gen was the overall size. It was juuuust a taaaad big I felt. This one might be perfect.

But, alas, I am soul mates with mine.

I do not believe so. It was the blue Camaro at the ********* premier.

Looks like it might be a little tougher to stuff 24's on the new one. Dang.....

Notice how much smaller the door windows are.

And you thought it was hard to see out of the 5th Gen? The '16 may be even more challenging but I can't say for sure until I sit in it.

But, if the car is not as tall, something has to give and from the pics I saw, the belt line of the car looks about the same so that means even smaller windows.

I have no doubt he said that. He would probably lose his job or get sent to Siberia (working on Chevrolet's upcoming 'Aztec') if he didn't.

From the pics, I believe this is much more accurate than the C&D overlay.

I'm curious how this trunk space plays out. It's already a challenge in the 5th gen.

There's a thread on here about concerns for the trunk space and trunk opening size. Just do a search and it should pop up.
