Maybe they are just trying to build the hype, hopefully they won't drag it out to long and people start losing interest. The Challenger is going to be tuff competition.

Also, if the Camaro is big and bulky, then the Challenger must be bigger than a tank since it's WAY bigger (and heavier) than the Camaro.
good facts, seems like a lot of people arent checking out that link. maybe you should also mention the movie prop cars

LOL....I saw this car in person at the 500 myself. There is no photochopping going on there. That was the color, the wheels etc... I've looked at about as many pictures of the new Camaro as a sane person could, and was kind of on the fence about it. It looked good, but not great, especially the rear. Well, in person, it was just amazing! All the proportions are just right...and even the rear looked great.

Really guys, try to reserve judgement until you see it in person...it really does look sharp!

The movie cars (like the bumblebee) pictured, are not props, they are real, run, and drive. If you cant tell from looking at the pics of the undercarriage, then I dont know what other proof you need. No, the bumblebee is not going to be a production car,,,,but its still a current "real" camaro (one of 300 driving around)!!!!

I know alot of you want to believe there will be massive changes before the car is produced, but think about how long it takes to retool the plants, design production machines, mfg and stock electronics, train and hire workers, and all of the TENS OF MILLIONS OF THINGS THAT HAS TO BE DONE BEFORE THE CAR IS ROLLED OUT TO THE PUBLIC. I believe that most of it has already started, so to change things now is really not thinking like a car maker, is it? And yes, at the most current car show last week (march) , GM is still advertising the LS2 will be the v8 engine. Like the other guy in the thread said, please look at it in person.

It looks sharp, but I can already imagine the kinds of unfortunate things some people are going to do to it with ground fx, ect.
