Production(??) 2009 camaro pics I just took
 
3 Attachment(s)
Saw one driving on the road when I was close to my office. Michigan plates.

The rear end looked like a kit car, came out looking cheap. I guess they'll have better fit and finish when it's pushed out in mass.

Far as I know, these don't come out for another year.

Ironically it's scheduled for a revamp in 2009...

Nice rx8 wheels on the camaro. You can tell that thing is extremely heavy just by looking at it.

tiggerlee 03-13-2008 12:24 AM

Maybe it's just the pic and the fact that it's white but it looks huge!

Yeah, looks a hell of a lot bigger than I thought it would be.

Still doesn't look much smaller in black. I think the rear fender vents look like ass.

I heard the yellow one actual has a "transformer" button. It's some kind of american DSC

that would be awesome if they did a limited run of Transformers tribute....

The profile is not bad, but the rear is truly hideous.

Spinning Sushi 03-13-2008 05:00 AM

Man... forgive me for saying this but the Crossfire looks better than this...

CERAMICSEAL 03-13-2008 07:38 AM

Somewhere along the way it seems to have lost the Camaro look. It's rather bland and bulky. I'm not sure what they've done wrong but it looks cheap and the retro feel has been diminished. It reminds me of some of the modern Dodge offerings more than the late 60s Camaro.

Seal.

I agree that it looks kinda cheap in white, but I love it in black. If they just get rid of the fender vents it would be great.

DailyDriver2k5 03-13-2008 11:06 AM

I could be wrong, but as I look at my die cast model concept Camaro, vs the real car, it looks like Chevy made the rear overhang longer than the concept vehicle, also the real car doesn't sport the massive 22" wheels as the concept one, those wheels look no bigger than 18" possibly 19", but they look God awefully small on that car. Also the roofline on the real one has got raised a little higher than the chop roof style of the concept .

Now i am not so sure i want one now , they look real heavy and now the production Camaro looks ok. Maybe the SS will have the bigger wheel option, because the smaller wheels make the car look like a whale!:icon_no2:

make that the 2010 camaro

It looks like a 2-door coupe version of the new dodge charger. Are those kit cars or reall ones in those pics?

Razz1 03-13-2008 02:25 PM

:pfanndina The rear needs round tail lights.

And get rid of that 80's pimped out rice chrome. Reminds me of the new Ford Fusion. :pfanndina :puke:

YaXMaNGTO 03-13-2008 11:51 PM

mysql, damn. Those are really cool pics. Wish I could have seen it in person.
I guess you couldn't see anything about the interior? Did you get to hear the exhaust?

Celronx 03-14-2008 08:01 AM

Man that does look huge. It needs to go on a diet. What's up with US automakers making their "sports car" offerings look so massive?

tajabaho1 03-14-2008 11:21 AM

i like the looks, but as the person above said, it looks fing huge

JRichter 03-14-2008 11:57 AM

Out of the recent retro pony/muscle cars revival (Mustang/Camaro/Challenger), I still think the Camaro looks the best.

Having seen all three (meaning the 2010 stang)...... the Mustang looks the best.

Next Mustang>Challenger>Camaro.
