to me it just looks like a 5th gen with rims and louvers on the back glass, nothing limited edition or anything like that.

the window slats look bad on the camaro but it looks like it might be just a plain ss since it looks like the badge on the right is white so its not a rs car.

Many including myself, say its not a camaro. Only the name is "Camaro". A true factual Camaro must be built from the F body platform, not to mention that only Camaros and Firebirds were ever built on the F body platform. A platform such as the Australian designed "Zeta" platform is used for family vehicles and other vehicles as well. It is so not a genuine Camaro. GM simply threw together, an existing engine, trans and then made the metal to fit on an already existing platform. They did not specifically design it to be solely a Camaro as in the past. If GM re issued the Regal, it would really only be a Regal if it sat on the G body platform.

It's sats "CAMARO" on the side of the car. It's a CAMARO!! just because it doesnt have 40 year old technology doesnt mean it's not a camaro.

somebody needs to lock this thread, it's stupid.

what exactly is the point of this rant? stay on topic or get an infraction.

and your opinion is your opinion ONLY, the 5th generation camaro is proving already to be one of the best selling best performing and best designed cars GM has put out in years, and certainly the best of the Camaro nameplate since 1969

I think you're just jealous that some of us dont have to deal with the annoying hump in our passenger floor any more

Jealous? Roflmao!!!. I'm actually on a waiting list for a ZL1! Although I love the new Camaro, its just sad that Chevy couldn't keep the tradition of the F body alive. And of course it must be better. Thats because of government requirements. I have 2 new condition low miles 4 gen. cars as well as a gorgeous 4th gen dd. I collect quality cars. Now ill have a ZL1 soon enough. I still have my first car, which is a 70 Z28..I'm looking for a 69 to build as a project. While your wacking up miles, mine stay pristine. All mine are LOW mile vehicles that most only dream off owning. So dream on and ill keep collecting new and old Camaros.
