5th Gen Camaro Rendering that "Hit Close To Home"

[JoeliusZ28]

For those that didn't know, just a teaser that's roaming around the internet... Corvette SS by 2008. Supercharged LS9. 600+ hp. No longer will the z06 be top dog.

I really hope the "SS" part isnt true. GM doesnt need any more confusion with nameplates

i dont think that will hapen if they were going to do that they allready would have with the 4th gens.

It's already finalized.

A few GM insiders spit their coffee out when they saw this concept, apparently it hit too close to home.

Are you talking about the concept? Or an actual rendering?

[meissen]

the drawing. wish i still had that image, would be interesting to see it now in light of the concept being released.

I just had a wild idea. What would you guys think about the new firebird based off of this design...

I mean they so could have saved the GTO with it but they didn't. They already have the design ideas plus I could see them using the Zeta Platform for its base! Its the Camaro with a few design twists! I think it would be awesome. When I first saw this design I was really psyched but then they came out with that tame GTO design.

Can you see the similiarities / Possibilities?

Look at them side to side. They have the same cabin shapes, hips, stance, pointed front end, large black grille. A lot of similiarities.

problem was its wasnt a GTO design it was an already made holden car... all they did was change a few lines and toss GTO on the front... i dont know about that one though i think its a little to mucm minus the crome stripes down the side adn make the body lines a little sharper not as rounded off eurp style and it would be ok...

[phoenix_rising]

Yeah I agree. Either way it would be cool to see this thing in production!

This was kind of interesting... http://www.jalopnik.com/cars/2010/index.php

Sweet ass car. I dont like the rear on the concept GTO though. And the front end could use some work but who knows eh?

Shouldn't you be at Woodward???

[wezeles]

no i wasnt heading down there... thats a drive for me... im way up in port huron and besides my car still isnt together... all im driving right now is the grand prix and duster...

[meissen]

I found the old drawing. Apparently I saved it to my harddrive. When I was going through and transfering files from the harddrive to my backup drive, I found it. Here's the original picture...

[JoeliusZ28]

im about 90% sure the one you originally posted in this thread was red.

[meissen]

damn. Yeah, the more I looked at that picture the more I think that's the drawing that people refer to as "Crispies" or something like that, I don't remember... it's a common one that was around on Cz28 that people said insiders at GM said it was closest to the real thing back when it was like Kris H's and Crispie's and a couple others. But you're right, now that you mention it, I think it was red too. Ah well, this one is still pretty damn close! haha.
