I would have liked to see a non-pointy grill, but otherwise it's sweet.
Not that I'll ever buy one.

when's the last time you saw a camaro w/o a pointy grill?

Well, those two pics don't do a whole lot for me.  [coffee]
Gotta see it in the metal.

I didn't like the pics of the Boxster before it came out, but really liked the car. YMMV.

I'm just glad that the new Camaro is finally coming out  !!!

Camaro's are my first love, but the DUCATI monster is a close second ;)

Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

Just seems a little too pointy. That being said my favorite gen bar none is the 2nd. About 11 years ago a coworker almost sold me his 72 Z28  for 4500 until his wife talked him out of it. In that time a grand total of maybe 500 miles has been put on, and it wasn't in the greatest shape back then. And now I'll never be able to afford one  :'(

I was at the Barrett auction when that Camaro came across the block.  It was pretty exciting!  We were standing about 50 ft away from the block, but we weren't bidding.  $350k is a little heavy for my car budget these days...  [laugh]

The new Camaros look great in person.  At the Chevy corporate display near the Westworld entrance, they had a red one that was built for SEMA.  It was powered by a 7.0L engine mated to a 6-speed manual -- the engine is a crate engine available from GM Performance.   No word on production availability for that powertrain, but.... [evil]  [thumbsup]

The convertible version of the Camaro will look terrific.  That's (tentatively) due for production about 1 year after the coupe is introduced.   [beer]
