I don't think they would use corvette styled tail lights on a camaro. They've always had horrizontal tail lights it would seam a disgrace to detract from that.

I do like that style though.

[Steve Chryssos]

Wow. I am so numbed by these Camaro "dream" images. I guess I no longer care if a new Camaro is produced. There are plenty of great cars out there. New and old.

Life's too short--and the list of cars I want is too long.

Looks good, but that is not a Camaro to me. I'll just leave it at that.

1970, 71, 72?

Nice 2008 Corvette! Please don't tell me GM is going to ruin another icon, Ford did'nt (this time around)!

[J-Rod]

Heh, reminds me of the new Supra concept.

Kris's renderings seem much more like a Camaro to me than that pic. That doesn't really look like a part of the Camaro lineage to me for some reason. Maybe it's because if you cover up the back of the car it could pass for an Aston Martin with Torq Thrust IIs.

To me it looks similar to a Viper. But i like it.

If that is at all what the camaro will look like I will pass. Like mentioned above looks like vette tailights and pretty much looks like the C6 vette rear panel. I think for chevy to be able to compete with the Ford mustang or anybody else in the sports car market they will have to twist a little of the most popular camaro ever built, 69 camaro. Just like the 67 Mustang Fastback is the car Ford centered their attention on with the 05 mustang.

I like to think that this will sorta be a start of another battle between Pony Cars. Has anyone ever thought of the fact the mustang was in production in 64 1/2, and the new mustang was produced in 05'.
The 67 Camaro is in production 2.5 years after the 64 1/2 mustang. Wouldn't it be kinda cool if their focus was to have the camaro out by the 2.5-3 year mark. I dunno just some crazy thought I have had.

looks kinda short like a rebodied pontiac solstice. Yeah a four cylinder camaro to go with those 4 door chargers. Now all we need is a mustang mini van and we will really be set for some serious racing fun. HA HA HA.

[Nine Ball]

honestly, I haven't seen a single dream rendering of the future Camaro that I like. NONE of them.

[Bill Howell]

Well, call me odd man out, but I like it. Of course, I would like to see the frontend too.
Dang guys, they are not going to build a 69 camaro again. The rear fenders do favor the 68's if you really look at it. This looks so much better than the current GTO. Give me one, I will drive it....

[Mean 69]

Geeze, guys! It's not like there hasn't been rippoff sightings here in the past, but doesn't that back end feel a lot like a Lotus Elise? Thief!

I kind of like it too. Sexy lines, but I don't consider it "anything," by name/heritage anyway. Is the new GTO worthy of the name? Most folks would say "no," but it is still a pretty cool car these days, all things considered.

I have a feeling that a different new Camaro rendering will be coming along that folks will not only "like," but will have input into also. And sorry folks, don't blame the artists if/when the big three grab a concept, and then totally screw it up when it is ready for production (new Mustang is an example, even though with some updates, it can still be okay for a new American based car). Whether you like it or not, economics, "safety," and practicality for the masses dominate the American car industry, with three exceptions: Cadillac CTS-V, Ford GT, and Chevy Corvette Z06. Those three have it "down."

If you want a muscle car, buy a muscle car. If you want it to handle as good or better than a new performance car, well, then call us! (Shameless plug, I had to, sorry, but everyone else does it...).

Sorry if this is a highjack, but what of the new Pontiac Solistice? Saw one in the flesh on the road the other day, didn't immediately know what it was due to a checkered flag getup paint scheme, but it got my attention. Got turbo, anyone?

I don't know if the comments about being to harsh are towards my comment, I didn't mean to be negative if that is how it was taken.
I normally try to hold out on my opinion! I don't absolutely hate the car. I will add what I do like. The car isn't bad, just looks like a remake of a few cars combined. The front body line above the front fender and door looks great. I like the overall style of the roof line and windows.

I think we all can understand they aren't going to remake a 69 camaro, but new style with old style is what most of us on this board are about. I used the example of the 67 mustang in my post above.
I know that is what I would like to see but thats just one persons opinion.
I will be patient and just wait and see if GM surprises us with a camaro!

Uhhh.... You forgot 1973.

looks pretty japanese to me

[colt zantop]

yuck! I dont care for it ..... call it something besides a camaro, thats a different story. I do like kris's renderings but I really havent seen a concept of it I like either. the retro thing is a cool idea but I would like to see something based off the 4th gen .

just my 2 cents

i think it looks alright. as long as it can fit a 335 in the back and has 400+hp with the possibility of putting a KB on it im all game. the camaro crowd has been so spoiled with the 67-73 camaros that after that i'd say people didnt like the design because they got it right the first time (for once). i say scratch the camaro let it live it's peace and bring back the vega with the I6 and a turbo

I agree 100%, I do not even think we need a new Camaro at this point, I cannot afford all the other cars I want already, there is probably little chance I would buy a Camaro unless they really blow the roof off this thing, and this is coming from a 25 year Camaro / Firebird loyalist. Just too much other cool stuff out there.
