NEWS: For the Camaro Fans...OFFICIAL GM PIC!
#31
Brilliant idea by GM, embrace the spy pics and use them to help develop the car and generate interest. This is a very new GM and this would certainly not have happened in past decades.
As for the car it's the same white one that was seen on the first poor quality pics. A few things that stick out to me is the body is very close to the concept. This pic along with the other spy pics should put to bed the notion that the side scoup to rear fender width has been altered and if it was it's very minor. Trunk lid has changed a bit, lower lift height now. No rear spoiler and while I don't know it that designates a base model or not, option maybe??
Sunroof??
And for all the nitpicky naysayers that are truly Camaro faithful just think back at the dissapointment in 9/02 when the car stopped production. Remember all the hopes and prayers and pleads that we thought was going on def ears at GM in the dark hiatis years. Then remember the sheer joy of 1/06 and the concept's intro. Our car is back and I'm so glad it is. Sure there are things on this car I will not like but there are things about my 4th Gen's I've had that I was not in love with either. But of all the cars that I can afford in 2009 this will be the only one I will put my hard earned cash down for and I will have no regrets when I do.

I love it absolutely love it, GM sure hit the nail on the head with this one.

*Just guessing

I know that there has been recent speculation about that, and I think that would be a great way to keep the body lines clean. But, there seem to be problems with that such as new safety standards, and ease of use. Personally, I would love that throwback touch, but doubt that is the case.

I think it would be great too. Looking at the height of the rear deck, it seems like it could be very possible. I'd love the clean lines too... AND you don't have to wait for a specific side of the gas pumps to be open
Edit: Looking again, it would be a pain to bend over that far to put fuel in. Ideally it should be between the taillights. Maybe it could be old school like the fist gens. It's been a while since I've seen my dad's bird, but I think on his 67 there's a square door in the middle of the taillight panel. That would be cool too... have a popper in the cabin so it's flush.
Ohhhhhhh, crazy idea! Maybe it's behind a taillight, like on the 55's.

Thats the big issue, the old school real bumpers. Not these 15mph, crushable bumpers with Styrofoam inserts. I just don't think its feasible, but hope they figured something out.

I love that they kept the high "belt line" (short side windows) Really makes it look like a chopped custom. Very cool. I really don't have anything negative to say. Except the lack of a spoiler, but I'm sure the V-8 will have one. If not, the aftermarket will be all over it. So I'm not worried. I WANT MY COVERTIBLE RIGHT NOW!!!!

Heck I'm only 5-10 and I cannot sit in a 4th gen without t-tops because my head hits the headliner. I'm glad the made it a little taller.
