Would really like to see awd ? Twin turbo sedan coupe mid size some thing to compete with the Godzilla awd gtr... Awd camaro would be different ... But then everyones stuck on the 8 cyl boat. Imagine an awd 500 HP Malibu ats-v style ...that would be trick. Or even weirder than that maybe next gen SUV awd twin turbo something ...3.6 has a lot left in it...

GM is more exciting about the 6th because everyone one follows these cars more than the others ! Sorry!

So it is "messed up" because they didn't consult you on the design?


Looks are subjective, there are those that want retro, and those that want the past to be the past. Hard to please both. Also, Retro-ness is in the eye of the beholder, I know folks that think the 5th Gen looks nothing like any other Camaro.

Hahaha.... I'll let you think about that!


Lol... Please the wide grille and the side profile is all 60's! What ppl you talk to? And yea , it's not a 100% retro! It has the retro and futuristic look! This is why it's killing in sells and still turn heads!

Making a bet one something as subjective as looks isn't going to work.

The 5th gen is a car that is definitely form over function. I love it but I can understand where the complaints come from. I adjusted to the car and now the visibility doesn't bother me. I have a feeling the next gen will sacrifice some of the styling to make the car more user friendly.

I hope the designers found a way to give us the same level of head turning design while giving us more function, instead of just simply toning down the 5th gen to do it.

If that's the case, I'll be a bit disappointed.

True! I meant to put that I would bet you that it won't outsell the mustang like the 5th Gen has!

But yea, I know it will be a dumb down Camaro and more universal looking like other cars on the road! But hey, I'll be happy because I love everything about the 5th Gen and won't get rid of it for anything! So I won't have to worry!

People buy more Toyotas than American cars? Only in Toyota's wildest dreams could they achieve that kind of market share.

Auto News (surprise Chevy unveiling)

I will be at the Detroit show but I don't think the 16 Camaro will be. Perhaps it will debut at the Chicago Auto Show...
