That's interesting, but the roofline/windshield angle of the fourth-gen won't pass new federal standards....can't remember if it's crash standards or something to do with the pillars.

LOL That's horribly retarded. Reminds me of the 99+ Mustang "Cobra" with the old school A/C Cobra front clip. New and old just weren't meant to be put together

Yeah, the 1st Gen lines and 4th Gen lines just don't work well together on the same car.

This thread shows why some people should die before 40. They're almost as ugly as the new, 5th gen Camaro. Let the past stay in the past. You don't see anyone going back to wooden ships and airplanes do you!?

what really makes it not work, is the length. old musclecars had a nice length to them, as far as the distance between nose to engine, engine to seats, seats to rear window, rear window to rear of car, and tho it looks kind of neat, it also looks like he cut 6 inches from the front and 6 from the back. too squished for an already tight fitting car IMO.

To hell with all you haters. That Camaro looks nice to me. I doubt any of you could even comprehend the skill and talent it took to make those.

We all can comprehend the skill and talent involved, but that doesn't mean we have to like it Even if I do personaly like it
