I totally agree with you Mr. Lillard. I love the concept of a retro 69' Camaro and the timing is perfect. But I was disappointed, especially when I saw the rear tail lights, what were they thinking?! A lot of 69' features are missing. What happened to the wheel well flares,rear spoiler, tail lights, ext...? I remember thinking the other night which NEW GM product I would buy, sports car wise. The only vehicle that came to mind was a C6 but you cant even touch one unless you pay 5-10k over MSRP. Look at the new C6 ZO6 10-20k over MSRP. I'm not ready to pay nor many others $85,000+ for a new Vette. I'm positive if GM gets smart and designs it to look like the most desirable Camaro ever(69), and price it right to make it available to the people it was meant for, the average working Joe, they would make a KILLING! They're close to a great looking 69 retro Camaro but it lacks the important detail. I think the interior is AWESOME, I love the gauges in the cousole. Maybe the body design guy's need to get with the interior guys and get their opinion on DETAIL.
I'm a total Chevy guy but after seeing the challenger.......... I pray that Chevrolet steers me away from Mopar!

I remember seeing another rendering of the Camaro and I loved it! All it needed was the 69 signature rear Quater Panel gills/fins and 2 fog lights on the bottom front valence by the licence plate. When I find it I will add it to this post.
