Yeah, you're right. I thought that dark area around the note was shadows from teh LCD being recessed, but you can see bubbles in the tape.

Alright, one problem solved!

I love everything about the interior...with those 2 big-*** square guage housings right up front being the only exception...Oh well, guess it wouldnt be a GM if they didnt make something goofy.

If the new Malibu is any indication of the kinds of interiors we can be expecting from G.M. North America then the Camaro will be fine.

REMEMBER!! Concept vehicles are just that: CONCEPT. As for the spy photos on the street, you think chevy would actually spend the money to build a fully functioning new interior?? No. The purpose of most of the cars on the street is to test them and their performance under different conditions, not as advertising.

The production model will closely resemble those spy photos with the exception of the cut corners and plastic panels.
