Okay so the Camaro concept doesn't look like a true "retro" car........so what. Did the 4th generation Camaro look at all like a 1969 Camaro? No but we all embraced that car and mourned it's passing. Personally, if they build this concept as shown I'll be the first in line because I can see the styling cues from othe Camaros. I'd much rather have a car produced that shares some of the heritage of it's past without copying it to a tee.
Who can't see the similarity in the grille to a 1969? Or the trim in front of the rear wheels, similar to the 1969? The cowl induction hood or even the similarity in the tail lights to a 1968 RS?
I for one like the concept and, while it doesn't look as much like a 1969 Camaro as some would have hoped, I applaud GM for proposing a beautiful car that incorporates styling cues from the past with all of the latest performance enhancements.

I'm gonna voice my opinion also. I hate it. Looks too much like a Chrysler Crossfire to me. I would buy a new Mustang GT or the new Challenger (concept?) before I would buy this.

The front does look like a Crossfire. If they tweak the front it will look better, make it more blunt and chunky. I like the car, it is a great start.

Have you guys ever seen the first camaro concept pictures in 65or66, they were butt ugly?

The camaro, unfortunately it appears, is still the poor stepchild to the corvette, in technology and energy involvement.

I hope they keep working on it, it has great potential.IMO.
