New Camaro Commercial

[Fast67VelleN2O]

That burnout "sound" was not from anything V8, and it had an open rear on skinny radials.... LOL you can just hear it

Cannot wait for the later introduction of the Z-28 and the Vert. Even in the base car with 300 NET HP on tap (with the V6) the view most of the street folks are going to see of the new Camaro -is the rear of it as it pulls away from the stoplight. GM and Settlemire was real clear on how the car would be promoted, and Challanger/ Mustang style commercials with big burn outs are not the image GM wants for the current roll out.

And in keeping with GM's typical corporate image, sales wont be part of the plan either.

Well yes in a way. According to Scott S. Camaro cannot exist with a sales base of aging baby boomers, (that is us BTW...) so to make the new roll out a success a larger buying demographic is being targeted.

We may not like everything we see - but perhaps someone who would otherwise buy a Nissan will choose Camaro instead.

That is how America and Chevrolet will win back market share.

We did not loose the market for cars overnight , and I suspect we will not win it back overnight either, and to complicate matters it is not just a US market. It is Global.

No Z, I believe...will be the 2 V6 models and then a jump up to the SS...which sucks, 'cause the lighter Zs were a better performance base...and the new Camaro platform is friggin' HEAVY.

Welp, there goes my dream of GM doing a "Super Stock" version of the Camaro, ala ChryCo & FoMoCo...

The Mustang & Challenger guys get burnouts & performance driving, and us Camaro guys get a cartoon that makes no sense?
