Kerbeck Camaro

[bubba428]

Kerbeck got a Camaro on their fron line finally. It was dead last night so I took a few picks. the car really is HUGE. its big next to the 06 Fuso I had last night. its the same size as the Cadi CTS.

it might me a big bitch, but that means theres just that much more to love, giggity. O and BTW, my goal is to be the first A-hole to impound one under UAPV 39:4 56.6. :nod:

[band77one]

i bet there's more than meets the eye

[bubba428]

what do you mean?

[z28rob18]

i sat in one down at a place in delaware. it was awesome inside and comfy as hell

[band77one]

what do you mean what do i mean its yellow and black stripes ( bumblebee helloooooooooooooooooooo)

[WildBillyT]

Caddy CTS is not that big IMO. The Camaro is big but nobody expected it to be a Prius.

Mud flaps on a Camaro WTF!

[Frosty]

I saw a black SS on the street yesterday, they look better in person than in pics but eh, I'm still not totally sold on it.

[Knipps]

Mud flaps on a Camaro WTF!
Optional splash guards.

[mc73nova]

Optional splash guards.

I dont care what the actual name is, they are ugly and shouldnt be there!

[sweetbmxrider]

hahaha fugg mud flaps! car looks sweet though!

[baddest434]

eh still don't care for the looks of the new camaro.

[Mike]

eh still don't care for the looks of the new camaro.

im in that group with ya.....i love certain angles, hate others, but overall its "eh" for me. it will probably grow on me though (ill admit it, the new mustangs have).

the challenger on the other hand, i have liked from the getgo

[NastyEllEssWon]

im a fan of the challenger 100 percent because instead of trying to ''retro style'' a coupe they just took an old design and applied it to modern proportions and technology. IM A FAN.



the camaro looks like a boat. i dont like one thing about it. the splash caps are pretty nice though imo

[baddest434]

i myself prefer the looks of both the challenger or mustang over the new camaro look. but thats just me :mrgreen:

like you mike i liked the challenger since it came out!!!!

[BonzoHansen]

eh still don't care for the looks of the new camaro.

It doesn't like you either. It says you are too retro-looking!



This thread reminds me of a song

Big bottoms, big bottoms, talk about mudflaps my girls got em

:scratch: Challenger good, camaro boat?

Huh?

[alamantia]

That thing looks stupid

[NastyEllEssWon]

yup the challenger is heavy but its not trying to be something its not. :nod:

[baddest434]

retro-looking is the in thing these days..no? :lol:

[Knipps]

yup the challenger is heavy but its not trying to be something its not. :nod:
And how exactly is the Camaro trying to be something it's not?

[LTb1ow]

Um, its more than meets the eye?

a der.

[NastyEllEssWon]

And how exactly is the Camaro trying to be something it's not?




well lets see. The new challenger is styled after the old challenger. Dodge has no problem with the fact that they took the same exact car, applied modern proportions and technologies to make an actual retro coupe. they nailed it to a t.



if chevy did that with the new camaro id probably be a fan. instead they jumbled cues from every camaro and got it horribly wrong. im not a fan about anything on the new camaro. maybe the mudflaps are kinda cool but ive seen them on hondas and the like as well. the new camaro doesnt flow right at all.


in short. it tries to be a camaro and ends up failing on every level. :nod:

[sweetbmxrider]

you have seen the 1st gen 5th gen side by side shot, right?

[jims69camaro]

i don't see how it has taken cues from every generation. someone is going to have to point that out to me. it's a camaro. it's what it was billed as. at least it's not an ASC camaro pretending to be a firebird. just thinking about that thing makes me retch.

it's a camaro. it comes across as a camaro. i like it.

[NastyEllEssWon]

you have seen the 1st gen 5th gen side by side shot, right?




yup looks nothing alike to me. the front end is cheap and plasticy looking and the rear end looks like it was just that. rear ended. im not a fan.

I may have to take a drive some time this week

[BonzoHansen]

yup looks nothing alike to me. the front end is cheap and plasticy looking and the rear end looks like it was just that. rear ended. So a lot like a 4th gen.

[maroman88]

I may have to take a drive some time this week

stopped at hackensack... its a 1LT with a sticker of 27k plus a "market adjustment" of 4k!! lol, i could see a market adjstment on an SS... but come on!

[Knipps]

:lol: My trip certainly wouldn't be to buy one

[thunder]

modern technology on the challenger? really? its a car that has retro style and retro engineering, put it on a diet and give it handling from something other than a barge. IRS FTW

yup. i said OLD SCHOOL STYLING with modern amneties. :nod:


reading pwns you

[Knipps]

IRS = modern amenity. Would you care to disagree?

[NastyEllEssWon]

meh if you want. the old gto's in the 60s were irs though :wink: so were the vettes

[BonzoHansen]

meh if you want. the old gto's in the 60s were irs though :wink: so were the vettes

What? Does the wink mean that is sarcasm?




I don't know if IRS = modern amenity, but IMO it is a modern improvement.

no the winks not sarcasm. its just to show that im not trying to be a ''know it all'' just tossing my own comment out.


tim and justin said i have to add smileys to my posts or else people complain to them that im an *******

[BonzoHansen]

Then I am confused. Do you think "the old gto's in the 60s were irs" or not?

[NastyEllEssWon]

yes they were. even marissa tomei knows that

[BurninrubberGT]

im in that group with ya.....i love certain angles, hate others, but overall its "eh" for me. it will probably grow on me though (ill admit it, the new mustangs have).

the challenger on the other hand, i have liked from the getgo

x2 everything you said

[MonmouthCtyAntz]

yup looks nothing alike to me. the front end is cheap and plasticy looking and the rear end looks like it was just that. rear ended. im not a fan.

the camaro fails
Looks alike to me just more modern...Cars big and i wished it performed a little better but is a sharp looking car... That being said Ill probably wait til the 5.0 stangs come back out and grab one of them. :mrgreen:

[BonzoHansen]

Then I am confused. Do you think "the old gto's in the 60s were irs" or not?

yes they were. even marissa tomei knows that

Ok, I am unaware of that. Can you show me an example? I never went to the marissa tomei automotive school, I only like to look at her.

i'm sorry when i say gto...meh...tempest.

[WildBillyT]

yes they were. even marissa tomei knows that

No, they weren't. She said TEMPEST- which had an IRS from 1961-63, pre GTO. :mrgreen:

And the early IRS's were not good in design. Something about a crappy camber curve or something like that. Vette guys may cry foul but it's exactly why VBP sells smart struts and such.

[NastyEllEssWon]

touche you got there at the same time. meh

[WildBillyT]

touche you got there at the same time. meh

It's OK. Brooks and Dunn don't know what type of rear suspension a GTO has either. :rofl:

[BonzoHansen]

Vettes didn't get IRS until the C2/1963 model either, IIRC.

[mc73nova]

just heard that hackensack (great american) chevy and englewood chevy got some on the lot... guna have to take a ride after work

Schumacher has a red V6 with the RS package, sticker is $28 and change, they are asking $28 and change! This mark up is a joke, I could see if they had an SS/RS with all the bells and whistles but a V6 model, sad.

Kevil wants $5k over sticker!!!

[WildBillyT]

Vettes didn't get IRS until the C2/1963 model either, IIRC.

Correct

[FIcamaroRE92]

Looks alike to me just more modern...Cars big and i wished it performed a little better but is a sharp looking car... That being said Ill probably wait til the 5.0 stangs come back out and grab one of them. :mrgreen:


x2, I still like the challenger better, but I just wish the camaro would be a little smaller

[madness410]

Big bottoms, big bottoms, talk about mudflaps my girls got em


'but these go to eleven!'

i love the looks of the new camaro...challenger is too big, the mustang looks arrite

[Teds89IROC]

so let me get this straight.......the challenger is more of a retro design than the camaro and the camaro is a boat :scratch: you looking at the same cars?

[Frosty]

I like the Challenger too...it's just a shame it's a Dodge w/an overrated junk Hemi.
