Is that ZR1 orange or red? I'm guessing orange but unsure. It's also nice to see that the 2010 Camaro will have more exhaust options that just the regular ORY and LT's we're all used to running.

Except for the backwards American Flag on the passenger side. I know the military does it, but the stars should always appear at the top left.

ZR1 above is bright red. The only orange one they make is Atomic Orange, which is very metallic and brighter than that red.

Thats a direction of travel thing. As if there was an actual flag on that side, if you saw it flying you would see it turned that way with the car in forward motion.

Flag on Driverside has the stars on the left. Flag on the Passengerside has the stars on the right.

I sure hope the LS7 Camaro will turn into the return of the Z28. I'm just not convinced enough of the SS as its heft will hinder its 420hp. I am also concerned it would be just about as boring as my GTO (ie: too refined for a "sports" car). A LS7 Z28 with an aggressive suspension would be perfect.

I really like the G8 GXP and think it'd be an excellent daily driver in which the AMG snobs wouldn't easily be scoffing at. I think the G8 ST is a horrible idea to be branded as a Pontiac.

I doubt that you will see a LS7 Camaro..the engine is very expensive ... GM Power Train has a bunch of R&D cost invested in the 6.2 liter engines with SC..if it happens that will probably be the route that they take..but the big question is will GM still be in business at this time next year....if they are still in biz I gotta think that low volumn selling high horse power V8 cars will be on the back burner ... they gotta make some $$$

I dont see how you got such better pictures than me! I took some while I was there but it was very crowded.
I knew they were going to stick a LS7 in there just to show it off.

The GM guys invited us to stay after the event closed that day

Plus, I have a good camera and lens. Canon 30D w/ 10-22 wide angle.

Nice looking pictures, Nine Ball!

I spent a ton of time in the camaro area on wednesday, patiently waiting to get the good shots that i was able to get.
