    BUT the challenger was never a light car to start out with...Chrysler is putting all the luxury stuff in it so of course its gonna be heavy...usually i'd say i would pick GM over Chrysler but Chrysler has just been doing some awesome stuff(Challenger, Imperial, etc) lately...GM just seems like its behind the curve a tad...the Solstice GXP(finally a turbo ECOTEC) might be a step in the right direction however...I just think the Camaro might be too late of a release...

    EDIT: and im just not a big fan of the Camaro's grill either

    Solstice do people actually like the look of that front end????? I think I'd rather have a pinto

    It's ok looking but you have to admit right now Ford is the king of the new/old design with the mustang... I also think the challenger is much better and agree GM is behind the times much like most of the time... and just to show i'm not a GM hater like most of you take a crtism towards one company you have to give them props on the tahoo it finaly out sold the explorer 1st time since 84 or 86 can't remeber which of the 2 years for sure

        the rear end on that thing reminds me alot of the concept challenger. Also, Chrysler started all this retro bullshit with the Charger and the 300C. The Charger and the Magnum are the pre-quills to all this new shit. IMHO, the Camaro is gonna look alot like the Challenger and everything else thats gonna be coming out. Its all gonna start looking like the same shit. I mean, its already hard enough to tell the difference between a Charger and a 300C. WTF. I work on those cars everyday, and the internal wiring, dashes, and all that shit is ALL the same for the Chryslers. I just hope that one of the Companies springs out and just comes out with something totally off the wall. The Camaro does look cool though, and I'm a camaro fan. So if I had to pic between this and the Challenger.......so far.........I'd pick the Camaro.

        Also.......end of rant. Continue..............

                pontiac has done a terrible job bringing back cars and the ta is no different. if they wanted to save money they should have just put the big sticker on the hood of a bonneville and called er a day.

                    Don't worry people, I am sure they just put that gay ass sticker on there for all the mullet wearing 80's TA loving wife beater supporting folk. I like both the TA and Camaro concepts and I am pretty sure most of you would think they are pretty damn cool if you saw them driving down the road. For me, I'd take one if I had a spare 30k sitting around...(If they were in production..)

                      Who here thinks it will look like the concept car? Just a fair, honest question...

                      I believe GM will find a way to phuck it up, tone it down, or take away an redeeming qualities the concept might have....

                        I dont think it will look like the concept car. I also dont think the concept is all that great looking which is why I cant imagine the production version will be any better. There is just something about the front end of a new pontiac that makes me want to vomit. The honeycomb crap should have been forgotten at the turn of the century too.

                        tsi tom I think the gto is just as ugly

                          all of the new retro-rods in my opinion are not that bad but you never know until you see the final version like what happend to the GTO it was butchered from the concept

                            i dont think the GTO looks different from the concept does it? i thought it always looked like monero...

                            At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                              There is no Trans Am concept, there will be no fiebird/Trans Am if the camaro makes it to production. That picture is a photshop.

                                if i remember right they were not origanally basing the gto on monaro or else what i had scene was a extremely early concept, that was 4-5 years ago

                                  That TA chop is horrible. It mixes first gen camaro lines in the rear with a 2nd gen 77-78 TA in the front, and a 77 bird.

                                    The GTO is essentially a rebadged Monaro; it is manufactured in Australia. I personally could deal with the plain appearance to get the LS2, but that's just me.
