UNLESS is was a custom made wheel in a 20".

If it is a 19" on the car, I think it looks close to the side of the wheel in the pic GM released. Could be hard to tell, though. Again....just sorta sleuthing.
If you look at both mules on the trailer, it appears the Simmons wheels are a little smaller than the other 5 spokes.

A fella on another board did a quick photoshop of a back panel.

Could someone deck this car out with badging , maybe a tint, and some some different colors? I know I can't

(I actually can't believe it hasn't been done yet!)

Who cares? They're for testing purposes only.

Anyone else notice that the guage bezels on the gm pic are rounded and not square like in the spy pics? You can really see them in the larger pic!

Yeah, I've looked real hard at that area and the overall dash looks different also. At least to me it does.

Sorry, but its an illusion with the lighting. I see the same dash bezels as in the interior shots of the camoed car on the trailer.

Next thing you are going to say that you don't like the crazy black and white geometric patterns on the side of the car as well.

Why not? Remember they based some of the design off of the '68 Camaro. The tail lamps are modern interpretations of the '68 "RS" tail lamps and so is the location and size of the reverse lights.

Great!

Ok, now get rid of the sunroof and goofy antenna, add a spoiler, paint it sunburst orange metallic and put it in my driveway

Nice work. You can really see with some clairity the sunroof and the rear valance. This car will have some very interesting features when it's produced.

I think that they don't blend in with the panel all that well. The tail lamps I love.

Thanks for the article.... and HOLY CRAP!

Starting now, however, the Chevrolet Camaro isn't playing coy. Want to take a shot? Go for it, GM (GM, Fortune 500) says. When Camaro prototypes go out on public roads for testing they'll be totally naked.


I don't know if I can take a years worth of "naked" spy pics of the car and not own one.... maybe GM is fudging the timeline on the release........................................... .......

The decision announced Thursday was made weeks ago, said GM's Rhadigan. It was not made in response to those specific photos, he said.

"This was not by any means a knee-jerk reaction to something we saw on the Internet," Rhadigan said.
