thing looks cool but theres only a couple things that annoy me. i think the grill is to much of a v, the rear lights are not very nice at all, the wheels are to big, and they could heighten the roof slightly. im definately not designer but thats just my 2 cents! looks great otherwise.

An LS2 isnt bad for a stock motor. Seriously, should be spanking any of the comparable competition.

They may look cool to some, but just dont hook up. Traction > Looks.

That and the cost of rubber. They do suit the car nicely though.

i dunno...i think it looks like something out of star wars and isn't rounded enough. it looks like it is still on a 1980s computer in its design stages. i don't care for the big wheels, and irs, wtf? by 09 an ls2 will be 4 years old, can't they do better than that?

..doesn't look like the camaro will be the poor boy's hotrod any longer.

My 4 year old LS1 still has enough power (in virtually stock form) to be considered a modern hot rod. Besides, that's what they've got in the concept. It's not necessarily the final engine option, and not necessarily in the configuration it will be in in 2009. If they put in an LS2 outputting 500hp would that make you happy, or would you still complain because it's a 4 year old engine?
