2010 Camaro PROTOTYPE - Here it is!
Some of you guys bitch like little girls. Seriously. How about a little POSITIVE feedback since they are actually building the car for us?
I actually like the sunroof better than t-tops. You guys crying about t-tops must not realize that the original Camaros didn't have them either. Hell, I'd like a huge glass roof like the new CTS Caddy has, if it were available.

You guys will be happy to know the front fascia is virtually unchanged.
I seen over a dozen on the floor at work in our other building, and a large portion of them were White. They were pretty complete minus the headlights.

I actually like the onstar antenna also, I think it looks pretty sweet. If that little hub has an XM antenna built into it, I'll be extremely happy, 2 birds with 1 stone

I don't agree with the sunroof. My girlfriend has a brand new g6 with a sunroof and we have had nothing but problems with it. It leaks like mad crazy and GM mechanics can't seem to be able to fix it correctly. That is one thing I do not want to deal with in my car, especially a new Camaro. T-tops leak a little bit but not nearly as bad as the sunroof. I mean the whole car floods when it rains. When we take it in we get nothing but the bs run-around. That is just one thing I do NOT want to deal with on my Camaro, especially since her warranty is coming close to running out, what will we do then? I'll take a hard-top or the way more reliable t-top. If the sunroof is the only "removable roof" option, I'll gladly pass.

Im really glad they didnt do t-tops, that means a stiffer, more solid chassis.

Car looks good.
I'm assuming the Z28 will come with a rear wing and some other extras?
The worst part about a moon/sun roof is lack of headroom. So being 6.4'', I'll need one without a sunroof (unless they work some headroom miracle). Even my moms Lexus (with moon roof) has very little head room. The same model without the moon roof has more headroom.
Something to think about if your 6'3''+
And T tops would be a very bad idea in the new Camaro.

holy crap, you guys bitch more than a bunch of school girls putting on makeup in the bathroom.
t-tops SUCK, with a capital S. they never seal right in one way or another, the whole trunk is taken up when they are off, you look at one wrong and the latch breaks. I'll take a moonroof over ts any day, and a hard top over both.

As for that type of antenna.. do you see a wire coming out of it? Nope... that means there is a hole in the roof. Gotta have a connection wire.

Wow. That is the ONLY thing about the car that I hate at the moment.
Other than that, it's looking pretty damn good. I'm sure the stock wheels will suck, but thankfully that's an easy change.
I am amazed at how much it looks like the concept, good job GM!!!!
Unfortunately, since we are all used to the 22" monsters on the concept, those 18"s look kinda small. But probably weigh a hell of a whole lot less too. There's always the aftermarket if you want'em bigger. I don't know why people are complaining about the sunroof. Don't like it, don't order it that way!
And some aftermarket manufacturer will make t-tops for the '10 Camaro, and it will look ghay guaranteed.

I own a 2 third gens with t-tops and a fourth gen with t-tops and none of those cars even hold a candle to how much water leaks into the g6. For every drop of water that comes in through my t-tops I have a bath tub full from the sunroof. Even if the sunroof is a standard option, it wouldn't stop me from buying one of these, it's just that one part of the car I could honestly do without.
Really? It honestly does not look that bad to me. I'd rather have that than a clipp on antenna like xm currently provides.
I think the car looks real good. Although I liked the concept a little bit better (mainly because of the spoiler, But I'm sure GM or some aftermarket company will make them). I'm not for or against the sunroof.
Overall, I'm very happy with the design. I cant wait until they come out!

Don't get me wrong, I like the car, I'm just hoping that if we complain enough about that fin now, they'll make it hidden like they apperently do on the C6.
Now is the time to voice our opinions, like someone said above, minor things can still be changed now; but once the production version is finished, changes won't be easy.
I, for one, plan to buy this car. And I just want to be as happy as possbile with my $30k+ purchase, just like many of us do.
PS. I agree with you about the sunroof, I would like to get one without that. I'm sure it'll be an option. I wouldn't want T-tops on that car though, I think a hard top will look the best.
With the exception of the rear spoiler and rear marker light it looks the same... I'll stick with my 98
On the C6 corvette the xm antennas are in both side mirrors and the onstar antenna is in the front header panel. That cost more to do so thats probably why the cheaper camaro will probably have the single shark fin type antenna. As far as the difference in concept and prototype I think the back end shoud be flatter, but would buy it anyway. Anyone have a pick of the front?
