New Camaro SS
- Thread starter gabeti
- Start date
Exactly. Chev is going after the same styling that Ford pulled off in their new Mustang. The Mustang is styled after the late 60's models (68 I believe was the best year for the Mustang) and has done extremely well.WoodPeckr said:
I love this new look and hope it does just as well.
Just what GM needs, another gas hog in its line up
GM should have came out with it 5 years ago...and it should be a hybird--or a turbo V6--like the Grand National was in 1987...at least have that option.
Whats going to happen if gas prices take off again next year and gas is $7 a US gallon or $2 a liter?
I'm a GM shareholder
and just about had it with their dumb ideas, toys...like Chrysler at the auto show a few years past with the 1,000 hp motorcycle...they need to stop wasting money and start planing to build cars people want and need.....this Camaro may be "cool" but its no Camry...thats what GM needs to build. A cheap dependable car with great gas mileage....go build a $15,000-$20,000 car that gets better mileage than a Camry....but no, they keep building 400+ hp cars.

Interesting that you say that - according to GM (at 2008 SEMA show), the base V6 Camaro will be in the $20,000 range and will give about 8 - 9 litres/100 kms...

The Camero has always been in my top 5 - growing up in the 70's & all, but this new look doesn't do it for me. If I wanted to drive a Mustang I'd buy a Mustang. I wish it looked more like a Camero.
That pic is from the 2006 concept car,there are more recent versions of that car including the hugger orange with black stripes,nothing is etched in stone on the final version as told to me by the GM dealer and first cars off the line are going to the US,with each dealer in Canada only alotted a certain number.I am told you have to put a downpayment on the car when its finally determined when the release date is listed and you may not even know the final look of the car,alot under wrapps with this cars release schedule.
The base v6 model will have 300hp+ (same motor as CTS), and the SS will have the Corvette 420hp motor. There are already short reviews of the v6 model up on youtube. Cheaper competition for the current gino car of choice used g35 coupe spotted loitering at Tim Hortons parking lots country wide?

um, cause its even more costy than the vette let alone camaro?
very nice and the awd certainly is nice off the line
well the new challenger has a slightly underpowered 250hp v6, priced fairly. lets hope this camaro with 300hp can give a balance between power/fuel economy/fair priced.
