Not bad.
GM better have a fifth-generation Camaro in the works. Too bad the T/A is gone for good.

I hate to say it but it look nice. Keep in mind it is only a prototype and most of the cool stuff and carbon fiber will be stripped for lower cost and reliability. I have heard the Camero and Firebird will make a re-appearence in a couple years. Can't wait! The next Corvette is still going to kick the Cobra's ass!

I only like the back of the car, the seat belts look like they would get annoying after a while. I would rather drive the new cadillac cts-v?, I believe, top speed is 155, like i would ever go that fast. And 0-60 in under five seconds!

I am in agreement with everyone about GM getting off their ass and designing something cool again ....
Don't get me wrong, I am a GM guy thru and thru ... but if GM doesn't put something out soon, that most anybody can afford, then Ford will own this market ... that is one sweet car. |

ford DOES own the market right now...they own the cop car market too....I think someone at GM is on the Ford payroll.
That is the best looking Rustang in quite a while IMO. The seat belts will never get DOT certified. |

Last year at a large Camaro/Firebird gathering in Atlanta I was given some hints from a certain high ranking GM employee that there is still hope for the Camaro. Sorry Poncho guys...Pontiac doesn't care about you or the 'Bird

These'll be out this summer. What a sweet car! I'd have to hit the lotto to own one, but wow.

Looks cool but I'd have to see it in person.
But the biggest question on my mind is.... Dave, what the hell were you doing on a F*rd site anyways??? :p

I bet my sorry butt ends up buying one. Wife says it will be her Elinor (gone in 60 seconds). I like them, but not new car prices.

HAHAH!! I wasnt on that site....got it off another one.
Your right ...The Firebird wont be back...the camaro will ....more than likely And who wouldnt mind having an XLR....but I dont know anyone with 70k laying around. lol Way to go GM....Keep on pricing your selves out of the paying market. Hell Grand Am's are 25K now....they dont do anything more or have any major upgrades from when they cost 15k for a brand new loaded GT. I know....Ive owned both old and new and current.
