The front end is crap, but I like the lines on the side and RWD is a nice plus

WOW... The Camaro name is "dead in the water." This is great news. GM is behind on the RWD bandwagon, but it's not to late. A larger, RWD Impala, Grand Prix (G8), GTO, and Monte Carlo is good news. That means Buick would probably get the Velite and a RWD flagship, too. I just hope it's accurate and Zeta Lite comes to NA.

^Are you saying it's great news that the Camaro name is dead in the water? If so why?

The front end on this thing just isn't doing it for me. Maybe if it had hide-away headlights like the GTO's of the '70's. That would make the mullet-heads swoon.

the front is fugly, but I do agree the the lines on the side seem to flow very smoothly.

Lets see where this goes.

As a famed member of this board would say, "Interesting, interesting."

No, after rereading my post I see how that came out. I meant that "wow," as in it's terrible that the Camaro name is dead in the water. When I said great news, I was referring to the fact that a division other than Caddy seems to be on track to get RWD cars.

Just a note for some: the CGI above is supposed to be a guess on the next GTO, not the next Gran Prix. The text is the reason I posted this here.

Killing the Camaro was stupid IMO. It just needed a properly done interior

I'm about the only person in this thread that loves that front-end. The look is very reminiscent of a '68 Camaro SS, and I guess that's why I like it.
