You guys should really take note of the above statement.

I like that car, but hopefully the real thing will be even more mind blowing.

Default Hmm

I just wish GM would get away from the "smiling" front end treatment... the bowed-up edges really don't work with the car. Same with the rear.. they make the car curl up and appear less aggressive.

I agree with that comment. Hopefully it is much more aggressive styling wise.

It would appear it's now OK for these images to be out and about. So on the tiny chance somebody hasn't seen it yet, it's on the homepage of CamaroZ28.com.

A modern and forward looking car with some retro touches is a much better way to go in my opinion....
Very well put Jeff!!

Tony - What makes you say that this is NOT the concept.

I really don't believe the Challenger Spy Shots are real either. As a marketing scheme, why not let something - be it accurate or not - out to create a "Buzz" to see if the product will fly and monitor the response on websites like this. Smart in my opinion.

Default cc'd from cz28:

Per an indirect request from General Motors, we have removed the leaked image of the 2009 Camaro concept from the front page of this site.

Once the images were leaked and spread like wildfire, we had the understanding that the damage was done and released our image.

We recently just received indirect word that GM still does not wish to have their copyrighted intellectual property on display at this time, even if the intentions are for GM's benefit. We have no problems complying with requests such as this as we understand that the images are property of GM, and not ours.

We apologize and ask that you please understand the reasoning behind this.
