If only they would do away with the base V6 model and come out with a true performer. I think if they went that route, they could go nuts and do it up awesome!

It probably wouldn't bring in all the dough they're expecting though...

Camaro has always been offered with a 6 cylinder model, with the high performance model(s) being a V8.

The grill in the front should be much larger and forget the lower opening in the faschia. Not so pointed. A flat grill looks more retro.

Square tail lights. Change the bowtie logo to look more like the 4th gen logo.

Less extreme side mirrors. Hope the windows roll down seperately. I doubt they do but it would be nice... like on older cars.

Less extreme wheels, smaller diameter, thinner spokes.
