Based on that pic, I'd say the new Camaro is darn near production ready!

I think the heartbeat just stopped there! Anyway, this one doesn't look like a test mule or pre-production vehicle. If it is - !

If you look close it would appear to be bleeding on the ground. GM junk...

I think that GT500 was a pre-production vehicle that was driven hard during some kind of press event/evaluation or something.
The Camaro in the photo doesn't look like it was being subjected to a similar hands-on "auto journalistic beating". Maybe we'll find out in a month or so from now when this picture finds its way into a car mag.

Not overly found of Camaro's especially this new one, but this is sad to see, as I would still buy one of these over a 350Z. Looks like it cooked, I wonder what that is leaking?

Maybe a blown radiator hose? or the water pump? Wouldn't a failure in either of those parts cause smoke and leaks?

Hell, maybe its even burning oil

probably just overheating....the car is a concept so I'm sure they haven't ironed out all the bugs yet.

Why do you insist on shooting down our fun?

Well I'm not surprised for one. Does it have an LS? That would make it pretty crazy. I think of them most highly, out of GM engines.
