I don't dig the front too much...somehow lights look odd.
Anyways, I heard a rumor that it might be called chevelle...but camaro would be my first guess.

Also, GM needs to lay off this "retro-concept"
They are too late on that idea. Ford had the Thunderbird (killed it due to slow sales), and now they have the new retro-looking Mustang.
The new Camaro needs to look more like a vette: slick and sexy, not old and bulky.

I WILL NOT BE BUYING A NEW CAMARO IF IT LOOKS LIKE THAT CONCEPT PICTURE. I'D RATHER GET A USED C6 INSTEAD - MUCH BETTER LOOKING !!!!!

I like the car in that pic and the leaked photos of the 5th gen but its GM.. many of their concepts look great but when they hit the market they have a 4x4 stance, less power, changed body lines. I'll be waiting to see what the real Production car looks and drives like before anyhitng.

i personally dont like it, at all really it looks liek gm just took a mustang, and the challenger concept and cross bred them and called it a camaro.

i would not get it., also, i dont know if you would call it a 5th gen, since it is no longer an f-body platform, just a camaro, much like the new goats arent second gen goats.

ME ME ME ME I will buy one but I will wait for the second year to develop to make sure the "GTO" thing (50 hp more, LS2, more styling) doesn't happen. Unless they come out with all the models at once.

Hey Pete maybe we can get a package deal if we buy at the same time.

I think GM did a fantasic job with that concept. GM can't please everyone all the time, but they sure did please me with that design.

I'll take one. It looks mean. I'm sure GM will hack it up though before they actually produce it. We'll have to wait and see.
