To the Many Friends of Camaro:
We know it seems to many of you this day would never arrive, but on Monday, July 21, 2008, at 4:00 PM, EDT, Ed Peper, Chevrolet’s General Manager, and Ed Welburn, GM’s Director of Design, will unveil the details of the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro. This unveil will be the first step in answering the many questions (or should we say confirming the many rumors) surrounding the new Camaro. Due to many factors, we are not able to extend an invitation to the entire Camaro community to join us in person for the dual, simultaneous unveilings that will take place in Warren, MI, and Los Angeles, CA. We understand many of you may be disappointed not being able to see the car “in the flesh” that day (and therefore give you a reason to meet us at Indy in September); therefore, we are arranging a live webcast of the Warren unveiling on the GM Next website. On Monday, July 21, just before 4:00 PM, EDT, go to http://camaro.gmnext.com and click on the "Camaro webcast" link at the top of the page (the Camaro link goes live July 17) to tune in the unveiling. If you cannot watch the webcast live, no worries, an archive of the broadcast will be available on GMNext.com and Chevy.com/Camaro. Speaking of Chevy.com/Camaro, the next evolution of the site will also debut late Monday afternoon. The next evolution will include images of the production model, exclusive production animation, and a downloadable PDF file containing specifications on the 2010 Camaro. After the webcast, come on over and see the changes for yourself. If all your questions are not answered during the reveal, a web-chat on the 2010 Camaro will take place the next day (Tuesday, July 22) at GMNext.com. The chat will start at 9:30 AM, EDT, and will feature experts from Chevrolet Marketing, Design and Engineering. Since Camaro’s production announcement in August 2006, many people throughout GM have been passionately developing a car worthy of its heritage that features beautiful styling, segment-leading performance, excellent fuel economy and advanced technology. Quite honestly, we can't wait to show you all the work on Monday. Sincerely, Team Camaro (Cheryl Pilcher; John Fitzpatrick & Scott Settlemire) |

I'll reserve judgement on the interior until I see one in person. The interior styling isn't that big of a deal to me as long as it's functional and not repulsive. The pictures do not repulse me. For me, the materials, etc. are not nearly as important as function, good seats and a good driving position. Simple is good. I don't like too many gadgets or buttons which is my biggest complaint about the G8 interior. Most seem to think it's one of the best GM interiors, but I don't like it that much. The center stack just seems unnecessarily over complicated and most of the buttons are too small.

I am the same....I would have "put up" with a LOT in terms of a "typical" GM interior.....but this interior DOES repulse me.....it is HIDEOUS! I too will wait to see it in person, but I have yet to see it in a light that is even CLOSE to acceptable..... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

The interior has got to go. Somebody has to perform an "ugly-ectomy" and install something that looks like people with 20/20 vision designed it. Which "focus" group did GM test this with??? Couldn't GM at least design a dash similar to the Vette? This thing makes me think that ET's face is in the dash and his two eyes are staring back at me... And move the console gauges up to the dashboard. That was wrong in 1969 and it's wrong 40 years later. 20" wheels...gag. Do I have to wear my hat sideways and duck down low when driving? |
