Yea, if you ask me (and I know Ford, GM, and Dodge wont)....all three of these upcoming pony cars should have IRS as an option, not as a standard. Give the guys who want the nice ride, or to build a road course car, their IRS. Then let the guys who are into lightweight straight line dragging have their solid axle. Sounds simple, but I guess the cost of producing a car with two completely different rearend setups would be pretty nasty. But we can dream, can't we?

Amen!!

Idon't see whynot! that camaro is supose to have like 5 drive train combos!so why noy have 2 rear end combos?

Hell give the mustang4 motor combos 4.6,5.0,5.4, hell a sc version even

I wanna see what the new camaro will really look like, not just the concept... the mustang's concept was pretty different than the one that actually came out.

If you ever notice........alot of times the concept cars are wider and have a lower profile compared to their production counterpart (just like the S197 model did). What I'm hearing is that the roofline on the Camaro will be taller (no chop top) and the body will be narrower than the concept. I'm guessing also that many of the concept's sharp angular lines will disappear into smooth flowing curves on the way to production. I'm "hoping" that GM nixes the smiley face upbends in the front grill along with the Silverado grade bowtie emblem. Couldn't hurt to get rid of the half-assed Corvette wannabe tail lights either.

The interior?.......well, thats anyone's guess.

As far as the look. What you see is pretty much what your getting.I like the lights i love them on the 70 1/2 -73s as far as the interior thats will be very close to that you see in the car now with a few changes but nothing to out of theballpark . But im hopping that it won't have no 20s on it !!

i do not think it will look 100% like the concept, all concepts change to a more realistic look when put into production, the interior will probably change, and so will the front and back, not to mention you will see more V6 models than V8 models on the road which will probably not look so good

RE: Camaro Release date (read in mag)

I have seen a few posts in here about the GTO being a part of the Challenger, Camaro, Mustang deal. The GTO has been discontinuted. There will be no more GTO's. In 2008 the GTO's are being switched to a G8. It is like the Pontiac G6 but with body kits and a 400hp ls2 engine in it. Looks to be a pretty sweet car. Looks 100 times better than the GTO did.
