Doubt it.......

 

Absolutely 100% untrue. This has been clarified time and time again by Scott Settlemire himself.

There is very, very little that the two cars have in common visually.

The 2003 Chevrolet SS concept looks more like an SSR than it does a new Camaro. Granted, that is in the eye of the beholder, but it would be an unimaginable stretch to say that both cars look the same.

 

I have finally learned to not fall into the "SS Concept = new Camaro" trap.

I just returned from a 12 step meeting designed specifically for people like us: "My name is Greg, and I am a concept *****...."

However I must admit, I cannot seem to figure out why GM keeps parading the SS concept around. Not only do they bring it to car shows, but it has shown up at clothing fashion shows as well.

It gets attention for the Chevy brand . Especially for those chrome trimmed white SS badges available on cars now at your local chevy dealer

 

I think if the overall reaction to the "SS" concept was overwhelming, GM may have used it for the design of the Camaro. AFAIK, the SS concept hasn't been that huge of a hit? I don't know that for certain though?

 

Chevy is just taking the SS Concept around the country to smaller auto shows, no biggy. I wouldn't be surprised if it showed up in the Louisville Auto Show in January, we always get concepts that are 2 to 3 years old.

These people really seem to be out of the loop, I don't know where they are getting there info, but aparantly they are not doing there research.

 

The SS concept represents a multitude of Chevy styling cues on one stunning car. GM should continue to show it off as much as possible.
When you see it in person, it has presence and a "jaw drop" effect.

 

Not only no, but H*LL NO!!!

I love it when people speculate about stuff after it was all over the internet, proving that they simply make things up and collect a paycheck after the fact.

Guess trying Google is a little too much like work.

 

Guy...Have you heard?!? It's going to be a Chevelle not a Camaro!!

 

 

The SS also previewed some design elements of the C6, namely, the swooping fenders, the circular taillights, and a little bit of the interior.. It also gave us a glimpse at the then-forthcoming LS2.

 

Uh, the C5 also gave a pretty good "preview" of the C6 . Except for sharper lines and exposed headlights, things like the taillights and interior didn't change all that drastically! Sure the interior appearance got stepped up a couple notches, but the basic layout didn't change at all.

 

SS Concept =

Thank god the Camaro Concept looks a lot better, can't wait for Jan 9th

 

We ship the SS concept to various autoshows around the country because...........PEOPLE LIKE TO SEE COOL STUFF!!!!!...........

We don't build a dozen or so Chevy concepts a year....usually just one!.....so, I keep track of where it's been (out of the 65 major autoshows each year)......(along with the Nomad and the Cheyenne concept) and ship it to places where it hasn't been. (It's in San Diego right now......)


We are NOT going to build it......and it has NOTHING to do with the new Camaro Concept.

Period!
