| Not the best, but it has potential. I would rather see the new T/A be a cleaned up version of this than a camaro copy. It does look too mustang in the roof line though. |

| Hmm, I wonder if that's going to be the limited remake? (I can't remember which company is doing that again)

| The limited re-make Bandits are actual restored 78-79 TransAms.
This is a photoshop by Winding Road.

| its a sunfire/G6 GXP/C6 Vette... and a shitty mix at that. This is how stupid rumors get started. Some asshole at a magazine makes a horrendous photoshop and they print an article trying to pass it off as something official.

| No, not Corvette, but the Caddy's version. I don't remember it's 3 letter moniker. At least to me, the hood and fenders resemble that.
I do agree, all these "Concepts" are getting out of hand. If they would just simply call them what they are, fan renderings, it wouldn't be so bad. It's just there's so many ignorant (I mean that by definition of term, not demeaning) people out there that won't know if its legit. Then the horrible rumors get started and so many people have heard it, that people don't want to nay-say it heh.
So I say, if you're going to make a thread about these, either don't, or call it a Render. Most of the time when a company has a concept and is really announced, it's a real vehicle already (a one-off, but a vehicle none the less)

| I don't know about you guys but I like it. A lot. I know there are a lot of things about it that are unpractical, but a slightly cleaned up version could definitely be made and I will be buying one.
Why do we want a TA that looks just like a Camaro if we can have our own design? I'll be honest, if GM makes a TA that is very similar to the Camaro I will still buy it, but I like this design quite a bit.

I'm a tool.
I heard you got rid of the dumdumdumdumdum? I wanted to buy it but I have no place for it and nothing to do with it!

| Yes, I did  I'm really sad :\ I'm going to TRY and get the GTA rims back off it, since I have the stockers still. $500 and he gets a $700 motor and a $1000 tranny. All he's going to do is race it at the local track and most likely put it into the wall. I'm going to take out my chip if you want. It's tuned for a mild modded stock car. No cam or anything, but exhaust, ported intake, nice CAI and stuff. It really livened my 350 TPI.
I'm going to go cry now
EDIT: Oh and he gets my 85 Dodge Conquest with a brand new $650 turbo, whcih I'm going to try to get off, I should go right now since it's kinda warm out.
