Pretty sweet! But...
Still way too heavy, and will probably cost $50k+. 3/27/2013 1:54:53 PM |

Vette gets camero tail lights...to keep the design language uniform.....
Camero gets new lights 3/27/2013 2:31:17 PM |

Are those prelude tailights?
And I like the way the guy keeps saying "OMG, 500 FUCKING HORSEPOWER...I mean, I just mentioned the Camaro with 580hp, but 500 FUCKING HORSEPOWER."

I'm sure these will be no cost factory delete items, just like they were on the S2000 CR. And nobody in their right mind will opt to not get them either And nor should they.3/27/2013 3:39:14 PM |

I just like that the factory offers such 'ruggedness'. Makes me look back to the Lancer Evo RS. 3/27/2013 4:31:59 PM |

And the squinty get squintier.
I hope they're not applying this look to the whole line. I'm lukewarm on the current Camaro but I can see what they're referencing. This one just looks cheap. 3/27/2013 9:07:34 PM |

nothin says backward white trash more than this pos. 3/28/2013 2:52:27 AM |
TKE-Teg All American 43406 Posts user info edit post |
you're right. Backwards white trash wants a track focused Camaro AND has $50k+ with which to buy one.
Damn, I didn't realize how extensive this model is. It even has carbon ceramic brakes standard (unheard of for any car under $150k). Click here for a detailed (I'm assuming press release) description:

The zr1 vette and the z06 have them I think. Both under 150k... But more power to them for putting them on the camaro... Maybe I'll be able to adapt them to the galaxie some day :-) 3/28/2013 8:46:16 AM |

^they're options for the Vettes. I said standard 3/28/2013 9:24:03 AM |

Will it actually be around 50k or would it be way more? 3/28/2013 10:36:45 AM |
TKE-Teg All American 43406 Posts user info edit post |
I have a difficult time seeing this car sold for more than $50k. That would make it more expensive than the Corvette Sting Ray. And even with all these go fast goodies the base line Corvette would still whip it's ass around a road course. 3/28/2013 12:22:56 PM |

305 section width 19" tires at all four corners. Yeah that's about $2000/set 3/28/2013 1:07:27 PM |

19" 305 pirelli's are 500 a tire. I like the look of this car, but who would buy this for 50k? For that price you could buy Corvette.... 3/28/2013 1:11:26 PM |

I don't know how many people will buy this to pose in. It'll be pricier, less powerful, and more spartan than the ZL1.
...and yeah, then it will compete with the Corvette, and I have my doubts about it out lapping it. 3/28/2013 10:08:44 PM |

About the same number of people that bought an ss last year. v6 is king 3/28/2013 10:13:40 PM |

Used Camaro SS with 6 speed manual and ls3 + procharger would lay a nice whuppin on the ls7, and cost 15-20k less.
