I just don't "like" the new Camaro I love it. I saw both the coupe and vert at SEMA last year and pictures don't do the car justice it is one of the best looking cars ever to come out of Detroit or where ever it is going to be built? The vert is incredible in person the rear quarters bulge out like a 911 it is bad to the bone. I had read a while back that Lutz said a 550 HP version would be available and then Carroll Shelby confirmed recently in an interview that he was told Chevy was bringing out a 550 HP Camaro so I am surprised it won't be out for a couple years if ever? Its still a 4000 pound car and it doesn't have 8 inch wide polyglass tires on the rear wheels so I don't know how exciting 422 HP is going to be? I can tell you the 500 HP on my GT 500 was pretty tame in stock configuration before Shelby converted it into a Supersnake.

Why is it all the new muscle cars have that over-sized side appearance. I think it is cool that all the old cars are reappearing just don't care for the tall sides.

Side stripes will do wonders for the "big-sided" look. Not sure why the Challenger has not offered the classic "R/T" side stripes yet. They are killer and retro at the same time!!!!!

I think I like it. However, the color renderings they have on the web site are not even close to what I’ve seen in person. They need to show actual cars painted in actual paint instead on computer generated cars. I didn’t see the “Hugger Orange Pearl” tri-coat listed as an available color. That’s the coolest color of all.

They do look oversized to me also? My theory is that they are trying to capture the 60s exterior style while still providing enough interior space and at the same time integrating todays safety features? Just a thought? And why they are all coming in at around 4000 pounds is another big question for me?

I haven't seen the new Camaro in person yet, but my Son and I stopped to look at one of the limited production SRT Challengers yesterday and we loved it! I've never owned a Mopar, but I would consider that car for an everyday driver in a heartbeat

I'd like a 2012 Inferno Orange Metallic or Red Jewel Tint Clearcoat convertible.
I'd also like a 2012 Hemi Orange Challenger. Gonna have to make a tough decision in 2012. ![]()
