Default Camaro quite dissapointing

As I said in the Corvette forum, I went to the Grand Rapids Auto Show today and saw all the new concepts from Chevy.

As far as the Camaro goes......NOT IMPRESSED

I sat in this car and found the interior to be nothing special, seemed like something that had been taken out of a Cobalt. The car didn't even look fast. I have a feeling this is going to be another money losing venture for chevy. tsk tsk. I was about as impressed with it as I am with the Challenger or the Mustang. Whats special? nothing.

The Challenger is a winner over all three in my book. Any automaker who can bring back the square design of an old muscle car has some *****.
I was slightly dissappointed by the Camaro, but I'm going to the Auto Expo in Raleigh when they have the one at the fairgrounds and I'll take plenty of pictures.

Evansblue "gonads" no less!! I'm shocked, but your right about the Camaro. It can't hold a candle to your '81. Just my opinion though.

Oops... I mean... 'nads...
True that Gwamps. The 81 takes the cake and runs with it! The 67 will as soon as Dad and I get it back together.
I didn't get to go to the Expo, mainly because it was the weekend of Friday the 13th, Valentines day, and the Daytona 500. Not to mention Carolina played Sunday night.
If you watched the Daytona 500, the Camaro was pacing...

I personally think the 5th gen is gonna make a nice impact for GM. It will once again put the Mustang to shame. The V6 has over 300HP! I think the official results on the V8 2SS is 426...I think... Check out camaro5.com/forums and read how many people have PRE ordered and are waiting for their cars! They pre-sold quite a bit! There is a huge fan base for the camaro! After they release this model, they need to bring in the Z28 version! To be honest, I think this car is gonna rock! You can get the 2SS I believe for under or around $35xxx. Of course thats not including TTL. But thats still cheaper than a rustang!
