Lengthy Video of the new Camaro!

Not sure if this has been posted already, but click here for a lengthy video of the new Camaro driving around in various landscapes.

Personally, I think this thing look hot.

I still dont like the grille, but it sure sounds good. I wonder if it will reach production with such a pronounced exhaust growl.

For me, it's the other end. There's just something awkward about the rear clip, especially viewed from the rear quarter angle. Otherwise, it looks (and sounds) good.

I agree with both -- the front AND back end need to be flatter. Not feeling either of them as is. Otherwise it DOES sound and look good.

It does look better in motion... a couple of fixes here and there on the exterior and it will be one heck of a Mustang competitor

I like the idea of there being some "pony car" competition between brands.
Hope this will keep the quality higher and the prices lower.

I read an article awhile back where the author had driven the Challenger prototype. They were limited to something like 45mph because if they went any faster, the suspension might bottom out. These cars are made to sit on a stage and look pretty, not be driven all out.

you can tell chevy has been taking notes on the exhaust sound from the mustang. Mustangs have always sounded better then the camaros. But that concept almost sounds like a stang.

I remember reading the Hot Rod Magazine article where they test drove the prototype. The GM engineers wouldn't let them drive it over 40 MPH and warned the magazine guys to gently close the doors and not close them like a production car (slam). They didn't want magazine guys to damage their hand-made million dollar prototype. I seem to remember reading there is only one running Camaro prototype.

In the article they writer complained that the roof was too low and he could barely see out of it. The top of his head was touching the headliner...
