Looks a little awkward.

I like this black one much better

Either way the rear end seems a little high and not wide enough?

I like them, I can't wait for them to hit dealers, I'm gonna test drive one for sure.  I'll make sure to ask the salesman if he minds me putting a little rubber residue on the quarters.

yea, it's definitely sick. i'm not gonna lie - i'm severly let down by the challenger. nothing more than another magnum/300/charger...but with yet another body. not any more powerful or anything...and...of course...still no manual tranny tied to a hemi.

This car has way too many goofy angles and shapes, espescially around the rear. And what`s with the lame notches everywhere, like the non-functioning scoop up front and those stupid grooves behind the doors... One of the main reasons I think the Challenger looks so great is because it doesn`t have all that crap. Its body is clean and purposeful. What`s the purpose of those things behind the doors on this car... oh right, there isn`t one...

Those "things" are called gills, and they pay homage to the original 1st Gen Camaro...which the car was designed off of. If the hood scoop is on the Camaro, you can almost bet your balls that its functional. Granted, these are mules, so it may not be here, but it will definitely be functional on a production model.

The Challenger is a nice car, but its also nothing more then a 2dr Charger..... Understand that it still looks amazing and I love the old Cudas myself....but this new Challenger while nice, is nothing more then a shell over a Charger platform....

At least the new Mustang/Camaros are original cars....with longer history....

I would piss on it if it was on fire.  Freaking as ugly as they have always been.

Well I've always been a camaro guy(ever since my aunt had a 67 when I was a kid and she melted the tires on a regular basis ;) ), and to tell you the truth, I almost cried when they killed it in 02, and I almost spooged when I saw the concept.  I just hope they hit the road soon.

Jesus people, looks are subjective, get over it.


I personally like the new Camaro. I can't wait to see what engine options they offer. I'd actually consider buying one if not for those inevitable hellacious markups....

Not a big fan of the retro vehicles coming back, and definitely wasn't a fan of this guy, until just now...

I have to say, I like it...

For sure, they'll be offering it with an LS3 from the Corvette...430hp....and there's still discussion that the high end model (either the Z-28 or SS) will get the Z06 LS7.....altho I doubt this since they're scrapping the LS7..

Most of you know I am a big F-body guy, but I aint gonna lie, I think the new camaro is hideous.  Def. the worst looking gen so far.  It sounds like it is gonna be a helluva lot faster than the stang and challenger, but I just think they got carried away and it got too bold... I also agree with everyone else on the challenger, it really sucks that all they are doing is using the same powertrains for all of the performance cars, so basically you just buy the one you think looks the nicest

The worst looking??? Did you like magically forget the early 2nd Gen models....or the "Bandit" models of the Trans-Am/Firebird.....looked like shit wrapped in a metal blanket......

Granted, this does need a bit of tweaking, but I'd take this over any Camaro not built between 67-69....because it will be the most powerful stock Camaro SINCE the 1st gen models....

This looks a whole lot better than the ones made during the 80s and 90s. Still, Id buy a Chally or  Stang over this.
