I agree for the most part, but the shots do make some lines look similar--the rear roofline appears to have a similar slant, and if you look closely at the area on the passenger's side front door there's a similar concave 'hockey-stick' style indent.

Other than that, I think they're way off

I agree. I can't believe how many people claim to like cars, and can't tell the things that make them very different from each other. Little changes here and there can make all the difference and for me dodge knocked this one out of the park over the old one.

2010 first, then 2011

Are people ever going to stop crying about this car being a sedan? Im more upset that GM chose to use IRS instead of a live axle for the Camaro.

From a performace standpoint it is shit. I wish they never marketed this car to take away BMW and Lexus buyers would would whine and complain about how it rides with a solid axle. Note to GM as soon as the coolness of the Camaro wears off, there are going to be mass quantities of used SS's on the streets, and the true Camaro fans will be buying them used for $6-7k under sticker rather than new.

Of course thats my opinion, but I see it happening already. Look at how many Johnny Come Latelies have already said sayonara to the camaro from this site alone. Ill give you a hint, it had nothing to do with IRS. The new camaro is like....ummm post black album Metallica. Its still Metallica, but only by name with a few hints of their purpose remaining.

Look at how many Camaros are sold by GM every month, even with the improved Mustang that everyone said would retake the sales lead from Camaro.
