Aren't Neutral and "OK" the same things?

While I like the car, hope it is produced and soon... my daily driver is a truck, that won't change, I'm not and won't be in the market... and the enormous number of threads on this topic is getting in the way of serious firstgen questions.
The new challenger, on the other hand, is almost good enuf to sell my soul for.

I would have liked to have seen a little more of a retro look for the new Camaro. Something more like:



I gave it an "ok" in the poll for now ... But it might grow on me some.

The nose on that car has the same effect on me as the challenger!

Yea, I went OK too. It's just a little on the "modern" side for me. Now I do like the nose/grill on that one!! That would be a great place to start!

I think the new Camaro looks as much like a new Mustang as it does a Camaro.

I like it. It would get a better review from me except that I think the back end looks a bit funky... I like the rest of it. The profile is really great.

The nose on that pic (Thortons?) is better. I think the side veiw is good but the trunk needs to slope down. 67 tail lights would look great. The Interior looks good though. Its almost perfect! Hope a drop top option is available.
I dont know if my current driver is going to wait for the new camaro it keeps telling me im done already. 92 board extorter

Now if you took that car and installed hideaway headlights and put a rear spoiler on it you would have my vote.

It is a great start to a great car. However, I hope that 2009 is not too little to late. I think the camaro has enough balance of retro syling cues, and enough new design to really say that it is a 5th generation. Look at all the other cars that have evolved to be not even a shadow of their former selves. GM deserves some credit for their new camaro imo.

I just hope it dont flop like the gto did.
Infamous said, Its not getting any more retro than it is now.
IMHO, It needs to be more retro, The mustang and the challenger are very retro. The Challenger is getting all kinds of hipe over it just like the mustang did when we got to see the photos of it.
Im the one that said, Put an orginal grill in to the car. I think that it would be cool to use an orginal part.
If your not going to make a car retro , Why give it a hint of any kind to look like the 69.
There was not that much talk among us camaro people for a retro camaro untill the mustang came out with its retro design,Thats when we thought that we would see a very very retro camaro,(more retro than what it is)At least thats what we were hoping for anyway.
Anyway im glad to see G.M. give us a rwd 2 door car again.
Im a die hard chevy fan and i'll love it no matter what it looks like when its born.
Thanks for letting me rammble.

Hopefully they will think about pricing on the car. Big motors in small affordable packages is what started the muscle car era after all. This is one of the reasons ford sells so many mustangs. Quit a bit cheaper then the camaros when they were being sold.
I see a
6litre
6 speed
manual windows
am radio
ac delete
See where I'm going with this.
If there going to build it. Then they need to compete.
