Don't know for you, but I'd buy it.

Definitely in my taste.

Looks like a knock off Bugatti. I’d still buy though.

it doesnt seem feasible for GM to build two mid engine cars.much as i like the design i think the camaro needs to remain a 4 seater(even if the back is laughably small).i tried out a C6 vette before buying my 5th gen,liked it but needed to be able to haul grandkids once in a while and remain sporty.

Lotus Evora is MR and has 4 seats, so it's doable. You probably just have to mount the engine transverse like a Fiero or NSX rather than longitudinal like it is in the C8.

Not sure how I feel about the rendering. I want to like it but I can't help but feel that something is off.

We are not here to talk if GM could do it.... Just talking about the look of it.

You can dream too you know haha

Thank the lord. If this turns into another list of hypotheticals of the Camaro being a two seater and of what GM should/could/would do, I’m selling the damn car.

I dont need a mid engine Camaro... But I keep looking at that Mercury Marine V-12 and envisioning that with a M-6 behind it in a 1LE!!

I do like it, overall, but I think it is missing something. Maybe it needs to be lowered? There is something about the stance that looks odd to me.

Being blunt, this (and all the other mid engine Camaro renderings of late) is simply Corvette envy.

Camaro is a unique animal from Corvette (and now more so because of the C8) and should stay that way. In fact hoping for more differentiation. Better coupe attributes, EV propulsion in the next Gen.

And you will never see GM build a competitor for the C8. Just not going to happen.
