The interior won't be the same, as well as some of the exterior, like all concepts.

Challenger concept interior is much better:


There will be many nice new cars out for 09, none of which I will get :'(

Aren't something like half American vehicle sales trucks?

Oh, and if your eyeballing that Camaro because of the sexiness factor, check out the R8

Although the Mustang concept interior was 99% of what it is now. I don't think it'll change too much.

IMO all of the Camaros from 1967-1981 were all . Some of the ugliest muscle cars, to me. This car reminds me very much of the 1967.

And it's supposed to remind you of the 1st gen Camaros....

The early 70's split bumper Camaros are one of my favorite looking cars....

The first gen Camaros were the sexiest of them all. You have a point with 1970-1981, but how can you hate the 60s camaros?

Aside from my current 00 TL, my favorite car ownership of all time was my 1997 Camaro Z28, optioned exactly as I wanted, leather t-tops, auto (boo to the wife!), 3.23 rear end, and the LT1 V8. It was literally a fresh off the showroom floor experience. Ahhhh....my saying back then was that it was like having my own amusement partk ride...I still kick myself for getting rid of it in favor of a 2000 Altima (damn those offspring!)
If the new Camaro is essentially the 06 GTO in a sexier body, you'll enjoy it. However I hear it's being built on a new GM platform, so even better.

I don't know why. I like later model Camaros, even the IROCs. I knew everyone would be but I guess its just a byproduct of my resistance to the new retro styling fad.

I've always liked the Cuda and Challenger. Maybe I'm just a Mopar fanboy deep down inside.

They will use existing materials from a GMC, slap in a existing motor, sheet metal will not look that good.

Sad to say, you are probably right.

Hmm...yeah if American muscle cars are your thing But like someone else mentioned, there's some pretty cool cars coming between 2008-2009. Just a few:

2009 Nissan Skyline GTR
2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X
2009 Acura NSX
2008 Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione
2008 Audi A5
2008 BMW M3
2008 Dodge Challenger
2008 Lexus IS-F

Of course, the Camaro would probably be the cheapest of this bunch next to the Challenger

Good for you, i am thinking about putting a deposit on one. I'm going to let you drive my car so that you can feel the torque and have a small taste of whats in your future.

I think the camaro, like the vette will be the best bang for the buck next to those cars.
