View Full Version : Camaro Convertible concept What do think? I think it's going to be a hit as long as the price is right.
OK, I hope this link is not dead like last time.
http://www.leftlanenews.com/2007/01/04/chevrolet-camaro-convertible-concept-revealed/ I've never been a huge fan of convertibles... but this I like. If they could make a hardtop convertible I think that would be perfect. ShadowLvr400 01-07-07, 01:42 AM Meerrrrow. I like it. Black is going to look very good on that car. Boombotz 01-07-07, 03:39 AM If they make them. I will buy it. Unless the Trans Am looks better. DopeStar 156 01-07-07, 03:45 AM Is that real? I'd love that color scheme..... LeftyCTS 01-07-07, 03:51 AM If they make them. I will buy it. Unless the Trans Am looks better.
Not sure but I think they aren't going to build the TA. Pontiac will build the next gen GTO instead. FSU_Noles 01-07-07, 10:06 AM So after 1 or maybe 2 years of production what is the progression for a 'retro' car? Do they graduate to the 70's body style and continue up through the demise again -- does anyone want to see the retro 84 Camaro?
I think retro cars look cool and it is a very nice idea and may well be worth 1-2 years of sales but I would be very interested in the vision beyond that.
Can't wait to see these "pony" car retros...
74 Mustang... 82 Camaro and 84 Chargers -- those will ROCK.. :bighead:

Never thought about that but great point. nyyankeehater 01-07-07, 11:40 AM So after 1 or maybe 2 years of production what is the progression for a 'retro' car? Do they graduate to the 70's body style and continue up through the demise again -- does anyone want to see the retro 84 Camaro?

A black and gold '76 Cobra II was one of my first cars with a 302. It weighed nothing and was a ballsy little car. I used to smoke a lot of people who under estimated what it had. I had a lot of fun in it. That T-top pinto looking "thing" on top, I actually wouldn't mind having one. It was always one of my favorite hot wheels when I was a kid! :) I~LUV~Caddys8792 01-07-07, 01:01 PM I sure hope I'm still working for Chevy when those roll into the showrooms! CadillacGurl 01-07-07, 02:12 PM Oh my GOD I want one! That just looks so hard ass with the trans am ram air hood. The exterior colors I hope will come in a Le Mas blue with white striping. The neon colors inside wrapping around the speedo and RPM is just so neat (I can't think of a better word) I'm practically drooling over this car, maybe the caddy might have to wait... :drool: LS1Mike 01-07-07, 02:41 PM I am getting one. I have been saving and that will be the replacement for the WS6...
Nothing wrong with a Third Gen with a 350 TPI they were good for low to mid 14 second 1/4 miles Stock...I think they look good

Without the thrid gen, there would not have been a 4th gen and the soon to be 5th gen. nyyankeehater 01-07-07, 04:20 PM All I know is that I need to find a new job that pays a hell of a lot more. With all these retro concepts coming out, and everything I want to do to my CTS, I have a lot I want spend $$$ I dont have on. AlBundy 01-07-07, 04:20 PM It's ashame about the TA. I would've love to see what they'd come up with. EcSTSatic 01-07-07, 04:48 PM I hope they get the body flex under control. The old unibody t-tops and ragtops were not very rigid. The big doors were a problem because of it. Not like my '65 GTO ragtop with a full frame.
Spyder, you probably know this but that "Pinto-looking thing" is a Mustang II. CadillacSTS2003 01-07-07, 08:47 PM If they make them. I will buy it. Unless the Trans Am looks better.
Trans AM is dead... CadillacSTS2003 01-07-07, 08:49 PM So after 1 or maybe 2 years of production what is the progression for a 'retro' car? Do they graduate to the 70's body style and continue up through the demise again -- does anyone want to see the retro 84 Camaro?

what the hell is the problem with the 80s FBodys?
i have an 83 Trans AM
those are some of the most areodynamic cars ever
they lacked hp and had poor build quality but they LOOKED awesome LS1Mike 01-07-07, 09:25 PM I always liked the Charger too! I hope they get the body flex under control. The old unibody t-tops and ragtops were not very rigid. The big doors were a problem because of it. Not like my '65 GTO ragtop with a full frame.
I understand your concern about the body flex, I don’t like that loose feeling in the ride, it makes the car feel cheap. I think cars have come a long way from the older uni-body ragtops. For example, the XLR V is a hard top convertible, I had one for 3 days over the summer, no body flex with the top down. :thumbsup: Lets hope this car is along the same lines, if GM buids it.
I’m surprised at my wife’s 05 Sebering convertible, it even has a little body flex, that’s disappointing.
Frank 90Brougham350 01-07-07, 10:18 PM I'm very impressed with this concept. I think it's sharper than hell to look at, and I think it would sell like hotcakes if they built it. I'd consider one, but I guess we'll have to see if the CTS Coupe is available as a V! |
