The all-new Camaro will begin with early production versions at the end of 2008 and will go on sale in the first quarter of 2009. “The new Camaro will be almost identical to the concept, a thoroughly modern interpretation of the 1969 model, considered by many to be the best design of the car’s first generation,” said Ed Welburn, GM's global vice president of design, who owns a 1969 Camaro SS. The front-engine, rear-wheel-drive sport coupe will feature an independent rear suspension, and will be offered in a variety of models with the choice of manual and automatic transmissions and V-6 and V-8 engines.

I hope it doesn't weigh 4K lbs and come with skinny tires. It sure is ugly as a dog though IMO. I don't think retro shows any creativity at all. I want a new looking car.

Howdy,

Well, it'll be interesting to see what they come up with. It'd definately be nice if they offered a "stripper" model w/only power windows/locks/mirrors, cruise, and A/C (and leaving off side airbags, HUD, big stereo, heavy seats, t-tops, etc.). Also be interesting if they offered standalone options for a lightweight hood, 18x11 wheels, rear seat delete, radio delete, and maybe something else...

Ok, the 2nd part was dreaming. :-)

(IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I personally don't like a bunch of features. A/C, power windows, locks, cruise, maybe mirrors and that's good enough. I don't need or want power seats, climate control, adjustable pedals, HUD, leather, heated seats, sunroof/t-tops, or onstar. I really don't even want cylinder deactivation, but I know there's no way to avoid that. The one selfish thing I'd really like is the capability to fit big tires like you can on 4th gens. My biggest 4th gen rant is the lack of headroom. It wasn't until I bolted a Kirkey to the floor that I was really ever comfortable driving it.
