yes it's true. yes it will be out in 06 (07 productioon year) and yes it will be a retroish car. It will also have mover power then any of the production vettes before it;s release. meaning that it will be over 400HP. It's also going to be spensive.


here a link with some info and pics

that sounds like an awful lot of speculation there. funny chevy is ripping of the mustang again 40 years later, that compny has no imagination

there are several different artist reditions out. none of them are 100% correct but you can get the idea.


and that has nothing to do with ripping off a mustang. everyone if going retro. look at the POS thunderbirds.

too expensive. what happened to the day when the average american could afford a good, strong, domestic vehicle? looks like dodge is gonna make another killing. just like the original mopars. ford and chevy need to lower prices.

it's going to be a specialty vehicle like the vettes. would you not expect to pay a lot for a low 12 second car off the showroom floor?

i ppen to know a guy that used to be high up in GM. the new Camaro is being built to directly compete with the mustang. the base will have a v6 or i5 and the better version wil have the same engine that is in the 06 z51 vette, 400 hp. i don't know about the Firebird but he says its dead and to expect the return of the Le Mans with a v6.

I don't think f-bodies have been built since '93 to compete with Mustangs...

Maybe you meant the Cobra?

the f-bodies were actually built to destroy t-birds and cougars. the new 07 camaro concept is going to try to compete with the mustang, and it will make both cars better. i still think the 68 Z28 body style would be badass.

I never liked the body style of the Camaros I've seen, but that one is hot!

I know I'll probably get stoned for saying this, but I would buy one if they look like that. That is a killer body style. And 400+ HP? Just nasty.

yup. the new c6's dyno at around 350 ish. and the Z06 will be even stronger. So they say that it will ahve more power then any production vette before 07. so that means at LEAST 375 and probably a good bit more then that. and I need to find the better pics that I had.. it's nice

Those pics were from a designer named Kris Horton, who is in no way linked to Chevy.

THe Camaro will be retro, yes, it will ride on the next generation GTO platform, due out in 2 years.

Yeah it is coming back but the Firebird is dead but the Mustang will still out sell it like it always has because it is AMERICA'S PONY CAR. It is affordabel and for how much that new camaro is going to be you could buy a new Mustang and use the rest to make it just as fast if not faster and have some left over.

Congratulations on that post. No really, congrats. I'm glad to see you can form complete sentences.

I like it, but I like my steed too. I'll probably get tired of the Mach by '07 and want to get something else...maybe a Cobra, maybe a 'Maro.
