Well, the trunk line changed, there is no

, and no rear splitter, otherwise it truly is pretty darn close to the concept, maybe not as flat but...

I think it needs to be dropped a bit, but the way the tires are, it looks like it could only drop an inch and not start rubbing. Any thoughts?

Great shots. its good to see what the car will look like for everyone who doesnt get 1. can someone tell us if those prototypes are v8s or v6s. i was also thinking that these prototypes may be the same cars that weve been seeing previously in camo that might have just been painted over which might explain the black door handles, mirrors and gas cap. but what i really want to see is some of these cars doing tests on australian roads.

It was explained in another thread that the gas cap location was a safety hazard I think, so thats what that change is about. Mirrors are also a safety thing I would assume, I doubt you could see anything in those concept mirrors and if they were meeting regulations.

Yeah Balzonya4head!!! I'm in Zephyrhills and a black one passed right by me and I tried to chace it donw but I was in my wifes Kia or as I call it Kisashit. Dude I got my Camera in my car were ever I go now cuz I'm all over tampa. They may be testing in Dade City and Brookksville were all their roads are like hilly and winding and stuff. Perfect for taking a fast car driving. I want to be a Chevy engineer for a day!!! Damn that car looks nice!!!

Anyone who has driven that road knows that, off season, you have the road to yourself.
Speed is not an issue.
Some years ago, in July, I hit cruise control at 135mph and was PASSED by an RX-7.
You can't tell me they were on that highway to "check out the humidity".

I like the white. I'm actually starting to like it more than the black.

No one really knows. Some think the white one is a V6 since the wheels seem to be smaller and the front clip vent is closed. The black seems to be a V8

Welcome to the site.

If you haven't already, do some searches for the common stuff like SS, Z28, engines, transmissions, LS, gas cap, headlights, b-pillar and you'll find loads of information.

Enjoy

Balz, that's one heck of a first post. My very warmest welcome to you!

As far as the accents being black, well I know on a lot of base level trims the mirrors and other stuff is black plastic rather than body colored. Maybe this represents a base trim line?

camaro10 · 03-13-2008, 07:02 PM

Pretty cool, wonder if they'll wander up to the panhandle to Pensacola?

Also, anybody notice they are going to call it a 2010 model instead of 09? At least I named myself right!

SSmoked · 03-13-2008, 07:03 PM

XCELLENT pics bro, and welcome to the site. that first pic is pure genius lol. boy ol boy has that week been asom lol.

FOR FUTURE PEOPLE WHO SEE THE CAMARO PLEASE TAKE A VIDEO CAMERA IN UR CAR AND VIDEO TAPE THIS BAD BOY

. thanks

The cars are here in tampa. I've seen the white one on monday and followed it for 19 miles. North of Tampa. I have seen the Black one today. I will not mention the road they are using because, I think that it's a hot spot for new car testing. I've seen Audi test at least 4 cars last year on the very same road 8 months before they came to the market.
