Hey Randy I was never a big fan of the Camaro but that one sure looks sweet. Is it just a concept car or is it in the works for production?

Well, it looks just like the concept car that chevrolet recently introduced at the 2006 auto show, just a different color and the added stripes. I've read a few articles on Automotive websites, that pretty much confirm it will happen, most likely in 2008/9. From what I've read, the actual production Camaro may not be as radical. Personally, I hope they make the front end look more like the late 60's Camaros.

I had a '69 Z28 and am probably showing my age but I still prefer the looks of the older car. Too bad I could never afford to rebuy my "Zed" again

I think it looks too much like a Mustang. Methinks GM made a boo boo when they abandoned that market, and they feel they have to target the 'tangs. It may be another mistep on their part. I think it will probably disappear like the GTO.

I think consumers kind of forced GM out of the market. I remember reading that the Mustang was outselling both the Camaro and the Firebird combined.

It's good to see them taking another shot, though. I much prefer the older stylings and I think the new retro look is a good beginning.

I agree Sean. I also like the new Dodge Challenger that will be coming out, to cool. I don't see any resemblance to the Mustang. I've owned 3 Camaros, 71, 81, 91,...it is destiny.

You're gonna have to buy two, now, to make up for lost time!

I agree with Bruce, I see a strong resemblance to the Mustang. That was the first thing I thought of when I looked at the pic. I had a 69 Firebird years ago, boy was that thing a blast to drive
