on the Avtar ..... very nice
On the Camaro in general....... ehhh..... not that thrilled with the new style. Personally it doesn't look as close to the '69 as they brag it does.
IMO, the retro car that has looked closest to date is the Challenger..... very nice job done there.
The Camaro as shown in the link is way too heavy to compete with the vette or other sports car. I'm guessing it would be a good match up with the Mustang but I haven't compared numbers to take any more of a stance than to just "guess".

Great Avatar. Gee, the Camero ZL-1 gets things the base and G/S Vette owners can only dream about: 550 HP, Brembo brakes, Boston Acoustic sound instead of Blose; and F55 magnetic adjustible suspension, plus NPP dual mode exhaust as standard equipment. I guess I'll have to trade up to a Camaro since GM/Chevy sold we lowly Corvette owners down the drain. Now if I can just get use to that butt ugly styling inside and out, and not being able to see out of the windows.

Actually, I had a new orange Camaro parked right next to my 1969 Hugger Orange Camaro and they looked like they belonged together .
Grandfather and Grandson if you will.

As long as they don't target the huge grill with a car attached and decorated with LED Xmas tree lights look of the Audi every other car manufacturer is copying. Since when do cars require five foot wide and two foot tall grills, and headlamps with strings of smaller additional lights outlining them? Will the IRS automatically allow you to deduct any car with this styling as a necessary business expense if your a pimp?
