That's a fairly old rendering. I like it, but it's been around for a while.

GM will probably come out with some tear-dropped shaped, cavalier clone (did I say GTO).

Hopefully not another jelly bean...


I personally like the Kris Horton's retro designs and I am sure GM could tweak them to work if they wanted to.

I believe that concept appeared in Popular Hot Rodding about a year ago. It's a nice rendering, but I doubt that it'll look that cool.

That concept pic with the hideaway headlights, that'd be cool.

I HATE the front end. TOO retro. Hopefully they'll be leaking out some spy pictures soon of "KEEP THE FAITH PROJECT" Scott S is talking about.

That right there is EXACTLY what GM should make the next camaro look like. I could guarantee you right now if they made that in my family alone we would probably buy 5 or 6. Me my dad would want 2, one for a driver and one for a collectible, my mom and sis would buy a V-6, and then my 2 cousins that r staying with me would definitely buy one..COME ON GM, GET ON THE BALL, you have an amazing concept which would definitely sell, and u guys are going to let it go to waste...

Looks kinda cool, but something just seems missing.... Something with the front end isn't right.

Oh wait, I know what it is, it needs this front end -



and then it would be proper (and all could be right with the universe again).

Yeah, except it won't happen. BTW, those renderings are well over a year old.


AJ, that is a Horton rendering.

Precisely. Just saying how it could be made better - make it a Firebird. Rumors are that Putz will hold to his statement of stabbing us (Pontiac Enthusiasts) in the back.

If we had that design fuel economy and top end would be hurt. We need a more aerodynamic shape, hopefully with C6 cues.
