Not that that's a bad thing, but it isn't what the Camaro was originally intended to be.

I not a hater but each has their on taste in cars and since you posted here on the forum I'm sure you figured that you would have people that like it and justs didn't care for the design. I will add that if this was a spy photo from one of the mags being posted that GM was bulding a new Camaro I got a feeling it would get even more harsh. JMHO
That being said thanks for posting your version but, I'm not a fan. Looks like as some have said "an 80s Monte Carlo."
As far as what the Camaro was built for.. Well it was built to be a less expensive version of the Corvette and compete with the other pony cars. It was from the start built to have a track purpose as part of design. Just check out the ad below. I think that kind of says it all.
Price for a 1967 Camaro base was around
$2,572 inflation calculator
$20,000.00 today dollars Actual Real staring price
$25,000.00
So really the pricing is not far off based on inflation and adding in all the standard technology
