I'm talking about the 140S.

Looks just like every other POS "ricer". Saturn could have done a better job.

Gee, GM

Yea I could see it being a small Chevelle and probably a fancier Buick model.

MODS could you correct my spelling of "camaro" in the title please.




Honestly it looks like GMs targeting the BMW 1 series coupe with this bad ass. Looks like Gen5 Camaro meets BMW 1 series. Wonder how it handles.

I really don't understand what happened to the days of a simple performance car that didn't have to weigh as much as our Camaros but with great performance potential. If this is on the ATS platform, a V8 will fit, won't it? Could this be a good platform for the new Z28 with a 5.5 liter direct injection small block....I would buy one.

Wow. Kinda harsh reactions here. I agree it's not the greatest looking thing to ever be photographed, but at least reserve your judgement until you see it in person at your area car show. After all it is a concept only, not something that's been green lighted for production. You'd think that w/ all the clamoring for an affordable compact RWD coupe that it would be embraced w/ a bit more open mindedness? I think w/ a tweak here and a tuck there it could be a sweet little car. It's not necessarily the design that sells me, it's the idea of producing a compact RWD coupe. When was the last time GM thought about that? Anyone care to guess?

I guess the lot of you prefer to have GM build FWD sedans then?

He was talking about the other concept. That one is FWD.
