Interesting note on page 15. In order for a Dealer to even Qualify to pre-order, GM will look at two items.
1. Their sale over the last period, and
2. (The BIGGY) Mustang Sales in their area!!!!
got to luv it!!!!

Im still torn on it. Never been a huge fan of the feeling you get when sitting in them, feels like your in a bathtub. I suspect these wont be far from it.
I am skeptical of this because for HP it list 400 or 422.. well which is it? or did i overlook an option package. Plus the cars in it arent production, they are concept photos, but then again i flipped through it quick and didnt pay real close attention.

I personally don't care for it. They didn't do enough retro. If they made the grill look more like a 68 or 69 and didn't curve it like they did, I think it would have looked better. The back is the killer for me. Too much Corvette added in. I go to ALOT of car shows/cruise nights with my GT and I always ask GM guys who come up to my car to chat, if they like the car. The majority of the old-school guys don't like it one bit. And these same guys are the ones who do compliment both the Mustang and Challenger, for looking like the muscle cars from back in the day. IMO, the soon-to-be-released Camaro, would have done VERY well if it was released in 2013/2014, and more people may like it, compared to right now. The futuristic-retro would be better suited for later. Had they done what Ford did, or Chrysler did, and take a 69 and just retro it pretty darn close to the original, it would have been KILLER from day 1!

The Challenger IS good looking, but it's too big and heavy. Sort of like Mariah Carey after a six month Krispy Creme binge.

Looks like the new Camaro is going to get lots of free airtime in Christian Slater's new NBC series, My Own Worst Enemy.
So much for the NBC/Ford-only partnership.
Sorry, but I think the new Camaro SS looks fantastic...especially in the silver.
