I'd like to see what they do with the camaro. I hope to god they don't make it into a family car on steriods like the GTO. A sports car should look like a sports car.

That just breaks my heart...no new T/As. I found a picture of the new camaros awhile back on the net and the car resembles a 69'. I really didn't think they would make them again, but since I keep hearing it...It makes me wonder if I should stop shopping for a WS-6 and wait for the new camaros.

I think that picture you're talking about is just a dream car done by a college kid - not a GM picture.

While that concept is pretty awesome, there's no way it'll look like that. As stated before, that was some kid's concept, GM had nothing to do with it.

If they do a retro design, that would be cool if they did it right. No front wheel drive & more power then what came in 2002.

Would be cool to park a new 07 next to my brothers old 67 at the car shows… hahahaha.
