-reduce the overall weight of the vehicle further (another 200 lbs would be ideal on V8 models)
-more interior storage (the door panels could be redesigned with cup holders/storage bin and it would fix A LOT of the problem)
-lower the belt line for more visibility out of the car (it doesn't bother me, but apparently it's a thing i've read about)
-better stereo system than the Bose with more low-end
-Carplay in the HUD
-OTA updates with more app options from the store
-maintain the 67-69 styling as your basis for styling
-more headroom
-add a leather dash/door panel option like Porsche offers
-auto rain sensing wipers
-front collision detection/auto cruise control

I know this list contradicts itself with weight loss while asking for more safety and electronics....I believe in you Team Camaro.

Oh yeah...I'm expecting Gen 7 to cost $50k for an optioned 2SS at the rate the segment is going.

50K?

My 2016 2SS A8 was 48K and I didn't have that many options on it...

You could easily get a coupe to mid 50s even last year.

More power along with a more configurable dash/HUD are about all I can come up with. Honestly love my 6th gen 1LE and only wish they would've given me memory seats and actually connected the heated/cooled elements as the extra weight for the motors etc is already there. Other than that I've got no complaints. The next gen will really have to wow me and offer a whole new realm of performance to even get my attention. For the first time ever I can actually say I'm pretty content with what I'm driving. I see a ZL1 being my next logical move in 2-3 years.

Blind spot mirrors built into the side mirrors.
Somewhere to put my phone (I've added a mount and love it but it pushes into the 12 volt / cig lighter and that's not ideal but it works).
That front view camera or a curb sensor is a must! What would be so hard about making it an upgrade down the road, integrated just like the rear view camera. It one of those things you don't realize you need until you've driven this car for a while.

All great ideas here folks!

Yup, so easily figure yours with a manual at $50k next gen.

And, Cortana is cool.. But, I'm a fan of EDI
If Spock can meet himself without a problem, why can't we? Besides, I would not mind watching myself win - any win is a Camaro is would be cool to watch.

As for EDI, c'mon. The ANSI X12 and UN/EDIFACT syntax and standards are getting pretty dated. I really doubt that Skynet is going to leverage it in their deployment. The T-800 and T-850 O/S is likely not compatible anyway...I guess you could code an emulator - but why?

I love the request to reduce weight, while asking for more room front / back & extra headspace, storage...give me challenger space with vette agility.

Got it.

Blind spot mirrors and a option to get a stripper version with smaller wheels. I don't need or want all the extras(that just adds weight)... which is why I went with a 1SS.

Wouldn't adamantium be too heavy? Or is it light? I can't remember?






Vibranium might be where it's at haha

Just two very important ergonomic changes for me. First get rid of those two humps over the instrument cluster with those two blinding accent chrome strips! Second have the center console open from the side so you don't have to dislocate your right shoulder to open it when seated. Personally I am amazed these two poor designs made it through to production...
