Whats an 'artical'? And you're really going to come on here w/4 posts and rip someone who has a been respected memeber of this site and one who seemingly knows what he's talking about? Really?

Right about what? That G.M. is in heavy consideration about bringing back the Chevelle in badge only? The word consideration means, will think about and is under heavy thought. I felt being 18 and so knowledgeable you would at the least understand my statement that G.M. is considering it. It's not concrete yet. Meaning there not sure on what they are doing with the idea. So re-read the post. Maybe this time you wont jump so fast and actually think about it.

If you want any credibility on Camaro5, take the time to spell things properly. Oh, and don't bash respected members of this site. The first two rules listed for Camaro5 are "Respect" and "Disagree, don't attack"

The Zeta-based sedan is coming and it will be a performance-oriented full size sedan. Whether or not it will be called the Chevelle or Caprice is still up in the air.

As for what GM is considering, it's bringing over either the Holden Ute or Chinese Park Avenue.

Not to step out of line here. Let me get this straight. If a respected member attacks a new member on there very first post, it's O.K.. If that person then rebuts, he is called on it and a foul is called? Let me say I respect your posting the rules and disagree with your analogy of me bashing him and him not bashing me. Please respectfully read all my post and his reply's. Besides I never was addressing him in the first place. As for spelling. No were in the terms of agreement did I read grammar or spelling was a necessity. So you bashing my spelling shows no respect So with do respect I disagree with your posting. Hoping I'm not attacking you.

On another sight I read they were bringing back the Caprice, but for the police only. Is this true or are they mistaken? They did show a photo of the squad. As for the full size sedan for the general public. It is (my) feelings we don't need a full size sedan. How about a full size coupe? If the Chevelle is the photo of there (thoughts) well I'll just leave that alone. 2011 CTS-V Coupe. Coming this summer! She sure is pretty, not the price though. MSRP $62,000.00 (if I remember correctly)

agreed, i love that car, but i'm afraid if they brought it back to life it would be terrible....think GTO. and im afraid if they went with tradition they would model it as a high performance malibu, in which case i would have to buy a ford or just stick with my truck forever.
http://www.omahachevroletblog.com/wp...libu_omaha.jpg

if they came up with a retro futuristic chevelle based off the 1970 model it would be cool, but it would have to have at least 450 hp

i know this isnt even the right brand, but with minor tweaks and a new front end it could be a chevelle concept, from the door back it has similar body lines to the '70 model as far as roof, trunk and windows at least
http://www.nfscars.net/forum/picture...pictureid=6128
i also wouldn't mind seeing that concept come to life

Yes, the Caprice is coming back as a police car, however, that car is basically just a Holden Statesman outfitted for police use. The civilian model will most likely be a Holden Commodore VE Series II (Updated Holden VE Commodore aka Pontiac G8).

And Chevy definitely needs a new full size sedan. Impala is getting extremely old, and a new model isn't due for a little while.

A full-size coupe probably isn't going to sell as well as a sedan. As of now, the Camaro is sufficient enough.

The "Chevelle" posted is nothing more than a Pontiac GTO with a body kit built by some aftermarket company.

Spelling and grammar are a matter of professionalism. If you can't even spell correctly, how are we supposed to believe you know what you're talking about?

I feel my grammar and spelling is just fine. Some have figured it out enough to ridicule my thoughts and beliefs. All this tells me is some are looking for thing to bash and shall I say hate others for. You have posted SEVERAL times proceeding others that have not only mis-spelled and gone almost ebonics but said (wrote) nothing. If they mis-spell or use improper grammar but you agree with them. I guess that's just O.K. Stop the knit picking and can we PLEASE just have normal conversations as civilized people do? If you disagree, fine. State your argument, kindly. Don't go off telling others that they no NOTHING and basically are just stupid. Especially a new member. If you don't like my mis spelling or grammar, feel free to NOT read my post.
If spelling is so important, put in a spell check. You have 50 thousand smiles. Put in a spell check and have one less thing to whine about. Then maybe you can decipher the writings with out all the disturbance.

I just realized, do you know how crazy it would be to have two Chevrolet muscle cars at the same time?
