I love 69's but that is just a little too over the top for me. Besides, if I actually had and extra $975K....can't say I'd buy one.

Cool car though.....

Fluid Power 09-01-2007 08:26 AM

nothing nice to say
 
My mom always told me "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything."

Well...that certainly makes a statement
 
looks like it belongs in Miami Beach or Vegas...a bit over the top don't ya think?:rolleyes:

If a picture says a thousand words, and if I cannot say anything nice don't say anything at all. I guess I will only say I think it needs 24's to really finish things off.

Would those be the diamond-encrusted 24-carat gold ones...?:_paranoid

Why?

SW, are you sure you do not need that in your collection? Who knows, maybe $900K would buy it!

Musclerodz 09-01-2007 02:24 PM

That is just wrong. The red one was pushing the edge hard, this one fell off the cliff.

Goes back to making a camaro out of a mustang. If your building a camaro it still must look like a camaro when done. No disrespect but tooooo extreme IMO.

Speedster 09-01-2007 03:45 PM

Just a little too much of the bling effect... Looks like something Dobberton would do.

Steve Chryssos 09-01-2007 07:38 PM

Whattya figure it weighs? 4200lbs?

lil427z 09-01-2007 08:00 PM

you could build 10 camaros for that kind of money.

Heck I bet it is closer to 5k mark !

andrewmp6 09-01-2007 11:58 PM

i dont like it its a camaro dont mess up the lines or make the interior look like a 60s corvette.there cars use to be some of the fastest ones around now they do something that ugly what gives.look at there site http://www.officialbaldwinmotion.com/product.htm all of them have the fat quarters on them.

When I see it I want to start singing the Transformers cartoon theme song..

I appreciate the qaulity of the work, but it's just too much going on. Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should. Good design is NOT just piling up every do-dad and widget you can think of and changing stuff that didn't need changing.

They got the hint and REALLY toned down their next line of cars, from what I've seen they are quite nice.

Beegs 09-02-2007 05:28 AM

It'll end up in Dubai. :lol:

10 nice Camaros.

taste shouldn't only be in your mouth

ProTouring442 09-02-2007 04:29 PM

I can think of a few Ferraris I would buy with that sort of cash, but not a Camaro that doesn't even have windows.

Shiny Side Up!

andrewmp6 09-03-2007 03:56 AM

they need to go back to making fast as hell cars not trailer queens with bubble fenders its a camaro not a import

TonyG 09-03-2007 04:18 PM

I agree with everyone here, but I didn't plan on posting thinking someone would flame me..lol.

andrewmp6 09-03-2007 09:30 PM

i dont care ill come out and say whats the worse that can happen they delete my post or ban me o well.

BRIAN 09-03-2007 09:45 PM

Style is subjective but quality isn't. A hood should fit on a $900k car. By the way look at the orig ones they were just as gaudy so there are no surprises there.

Rybar 09-03-2007 10:22 PM

I'm sorry guys, for $900K I think the car looks pretty bad. I'd take the Mule or a '69 like Scott's or Johnny51's anyday over this car for a fraction of the price. The original lines need to stay to keep it classic looking. This thing looks as whored out as you can get on a car. :yes:

I don't think anyone is going to delete your post.

dale 09-04-2007 01:36 PM

My word... that thing is over-done. I'm guessing that even if the hinges and whatnot were far "lighter" in appearance, it would still look "clunky". It will takle a certain buyer to chase it down at that price, for certain.

z4me69 09-04-2007 01:57 PM

900k for mule or orion dont think 900k will get either one .love the mule but orion is on another level .can't waite to see that one done

Ricochet 09-04-2007 02:19 PM

Chew on this..You could have bought Bob Johnson's Cuda (which is 10X the car IMO) and pocketed $450K for what the "Buy it now Price" is!!

Just a thought:rolleyes:

Judging from the comments,I guess mom was wrong on this one....:rofl:

clill 09-04-2007 04:14 PM

I'm guessin for 900K you can get the Mule and Orion......and a vacation condo somewere..and.....

almcbri 09-04-2007 04:28 PM

I am not a fan, but at the same time there is a ton of imagination brought into the B-M cars.

I would hands down rather buy a collection of cars than spend 900K.

Ummgawa 09-04-2007 06:49 PM

No Comment.

novaruns8s 09-04-2007 06:57 PM

Apparently you guys can only appreciate the "Done to Death" Camaro.. I have seen this car in person, very well done.:thumbsup:
