Default What do we call the new Camaro?

OK we need a new name for the New Camaro
We all know what an Fbody is, but the new Camaro isn't an Fbody

So what do we call it?

I think we need to think of something otherwise confusion could set it!

z body? its on the zeta platform.

fbody = just unique to firebirds and camaros.

zeta platform = new camaro, pontiac g8, pontiac gto, vauxhall vxr8, holden wm statesman, 2007+ chevy caprice (not available in the US), daewoo veritas (same as the caprice - a rebadged holden wm statesman), etc..

It's an F body, no discussion on the subject necessary.

4th digit of the vin number is the car platform.

No, it needs something unique, like the "terminator" cobras. How about "Power Pigs"?

+1 It's just a 5th Gen F-Body. It's pretty distinguishable. I doesn't need any "terminator" 'esque nickname.

if anybody knows the development name you could use that, the terminator was the development name for the 03-04 cobras, so that is fine, just like daisy was used for the ford shelby cobra concept.
