Thats IS going to be my next car! screw 4th gens! lol!

[GP99GT]

its still fugly if you ask me

[BlueFBird]

its so damn ulgy

[NJSPEEDER]

i like it. cutting edge, very musclular looking.
imagine that shape dipped in the impulse blue metallic/ navy blue metallic that GM has been using the last 5 or 6 years and i think it is perfect looking.

looks like i have a reason to keep saving those GM card points after all :D

[IROCdan330]

looks like average height guys are going to have a little bit of an issue with head room. looks heavy too.

[NJSPEEDER]

they all start heavy :wink:
first gens were fairly light, 2nd gens are tanks, 3rd gens are the lightest cars, and 4th gens are complete pigs. i woudln't be surprised to see the 5th gen weigh in similar to 4th gens.

anyone hear and know where to find anything on proposed pricing?
if it is clsoe to what the 4th gen cars were i am sure it will be a huge hit.

[V]

screw ever having kids, ill save the money they cost parents, and im buying one of those after i get a house.

[turbo96z28]

they all start heavy :wink:


from the length and wheel base, i really don't think it'll be that heavy to start.

i'm guessing around 3600 pounds for this one. a little heavier than the new Stang.

and did you hear the dimensions, 110" wheel base and 182.6" overall length. overall it's not as long as a 4th gen and rides on a longer wheelbase. the handling is gonna be insane in that thing!

[turbo96z28]

probably gonne be right in the neighborhood of the Stang. won't know any set in stone stuff for awhile.

[V]

the only thing that turns me off a little (not enough to dislike the car though) is that upper grille style. a little too pointy, mabye in a production version, if ever, itll be smoothed out a little. but even if not, ill still buy it.

[qwikz28]

is that the concept at the car show?

[turbo96z28]

is that the concept at the car show?


yup. that's the car that will be debuting in Detroit on Monday.

the photos and vid (Road & Track are in deep **** for this one, but nothing anyone can do about it) were SUPPOSED to be released AFTER Monday.

[NJSPEEDER]

i hope so. it is a hot lookin car.
we will see the pics that BigAl puts up monday or tuesday sinc ehe is in detroit for the press days.
i sort of agree about the grill. if you just push the sides of it forward a little bit so that it more closely follws the lines of the front boumper cover i think it would be perfect. i woudl buy it the way it is though, hot car

[ar0ck]

In 2010 you will find me at Hawthorne Chevy signing my life away. I'm going to order one with every apperance and performance package available!

[NJSPEEDER]

i will get the biggest motor an delete every possible power do-dad i can :)

[turbo96z28]

i will get the biggest motor an delete every possible power do-dad i can :)

i like the way you think! i'm doin the same thing.

just keep your fingers crossed for the LS7.

[NJSPEEDER]

walk in to the dealership and say" i want a camaro and i have 3 requests. i want it navy blue metallic, i want the biggest motor available, and i want manual everything else." lol

[ar0ck]

OK... now when I go to show my parents the website link doesn't work. And If I try to search Road & Tracks website it doesn't come up with anything.

[WayFast84]

like I said Im getting one!! ..some day! Im lovin that color i like the hood and everything except the front nose other then that its !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WayFast84]

Ohh and I also like it not being a hatchback because they get anoying like I cant keep anything valuable in the hatch or else some on will see it and break into the car

[Frosty]

Nasty!!

[turbo96z28]

OK... now when I go to show my parents the website link doesn't work. And If I try to search Road & Tracks website it doesn't come up with anything.


like i said before Road & Track are in deep **** for this. they killed the link.

[Tru2Chevy]

Looks pretty good, I like it. Not crazy about the nose, but it could just be the angle of the pic....

- Justin

[JW]

I dont like the whole front bumper/nose but the only picture I got to see was the one in this post since they killed the link before I saw it.

JW :D

you should have seen the video. it looks mean from head on.

[NJSPEEDER]

it is on a rotisary in the video. a little lower angle, car looks amazing.

[Tru2Chevy]

I guess no one grabbed the video before they killed it?

- Justin

[90FormulaWS6]

i like it, a lot

[qwikz28]

much appreciated Koll.

[JW]

Is it just me or are the mirrors like 2" thin?

JW :D

remember, it's just a "concept" right now. minor changes will be made before it goes into production.

[90FormulaWS6]

just watched the video... love it

[enRo]

I take it we arent getting ttops :-/

[qwikz28]

I take it we arent getting ttops :-/
yeah and how come there are no pics floatin around of a vert?

[nj85z28]

im gonna start saving now

[IROCdan330]

I wonder what the SS will look like...if they make an SS...

[V]

i dont know about a ttop version, but if you look at the roof line there are two lines that MAY be for a supporting structure underneath. If ttops will be an option, this may be for that. The concept tops may not be the full roof width like 82-02, probably more like the late 70s-81 versions with the hurst style roof panels. anyone know what im talking about, with like a 1 foot wide solid space between the openings, even if thats what it will be, it'll still be cool.

[Brando56894]

definately looks sweet, one of the best camaros ive seen yet :D

[NJSPEEDER]

with those body lines you can easily picture the convertable, now that will be a hot looking piece.

[camaro2you]

i think i found something to get my dad to trade the vette in on haha.

[WayFast84]

[qwikz28]

woooohoooooo! ultra z hood!

[79CamaroDiva]

I dunno, I'm not completely crazy about it. It looks like the bastard love child between a vette and a 1st gen. Then again, it took me a while to like 4th gens too, so we'll see. I hope they do something about the mirrors and grille, along with curve the top of the fenders some. the backend is cool, but the front end definitely needs work.

[oh one ls1 SS]

MMM i want it now damn it!! ill give up my first born

[LS1Hawk]

It looks alright. I think those front fenders look too square though, and they could have picked a better color. But it's not bad. I'd like to see them come out with a concept that's not retro, such as an interpretation of how the car would have evolved from the 4th gen design.

[jims69camaro]

knowing how long it will take to get to a dealership, then how long 'til the blood-suckers stop adding premiums of thousands of dollars to them, then how long 'til i can ORDER one without having to pay extra... is really going to test my patience. no more settling for something else, like a solstice or a cts or - even - a rustnag.

yes, i will have one.

[Firebird67dude]

I think its sexy. I hope pontiac picks up and does suttin for a T/A model. I like the first gen look. T tops would look alright on it but looks fine hard top. Cant really see it as a vert. IDK with the first gen look i didnt like the versts anyway. If they make a vert i hope its a hard top vert. I hade the rag top verts.

[Ian]

How many times is this going to have to be said. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER FIREBIRD OR TRANS AM!!!!

[maroman88]

thats sad but ur prob right...gto took that segment of pontiac and the 08 GTO looks very promising

[Brando56894]

THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER FIREBIRD OR TRANS AM!!!!

i refuse to believe it! :mad:

[Savage_Messiah]

I think me, Al and Alex are gonna have a race to see who gets a 2010 model first :lol:

[camaroracer1992]

i need to make my gf get a 3rd job to get my truck paid off early so i can get one of these as soon as they come out!!!

[LS1Hawk]

There will be another Firebird at some point, just not in this decade...

[Scorched SS]

im geeking out right now - i want to fly to detroit just to see this f'n thing...

HIDE THOSE HEADLIGHTS AND MAKE MINE AN RS/SS PLEASE!

more pics...

[BigAls87Z28]

Remember, it IS a concept, so its going to be a little over the top for production. This gives you a great image and an idea, but you know things like that front end wont make production. With GM's push for aerodynamic fronts, especialy on the SUV's, I dont see much of the front making production. And if I said it once, I said it 2084023840283402384 times to the guys at the hotel last night, circle tail lights PLEASE!!
