Default Camaro Convertible Concept

Finally, the new Camaro Convertible Concept is revealed






The concept car has 21" wheels in front, and 22" in the back. It'll probably have the 400hp V8, derived from the Corvette engine.

I just love those taillights, hope it'll be this way in production

Very nice lines!

Hope they'll also make a version with the Zo6 engine

wow, this one really looks great. difficult to say with only these pics but it seems that they kept the interior very clean and simple.

with a good engine this could be a very very nice muscle car...

I was hoping it would've been black like the teaser sketch, but this looks good too. The coupe concept was underwhelming in real life. I think it might have been the color. This one, though, is really interesting.

Im curious to see what it looks like in the flesh. I like it in the picture and some of me wonders if I should get on the waiting list for the coupe.. Worse situation I prolly could make a good deal of cash flipping it.

This is a car I would buy for sure! Especially if it’s priced to compete with the Mustang which I'm sure it will be. But I would get the Coupe and not the vert.

Looks nice, especially the color. I wouldnt go for the convertible though, I would rather have the coupe.

Just look at that!! -



I have never seen a car with such a distinctive face!! That could be a cartoon character and just come to life and say something like "You like what you see bitch?!!" LOL Amazing ("brilliant":roll! That’s the kind of thing that will sell.

Those headlights look like eyes!!

Such a pretty car. I like the fact that they didn't totally slaughter the interior and left some of the concept interior intact. I just hope no more price cutting on the interior will occur or we'll end up with a pretty looking Kia.
