yes it's true. yes it will be out in 06 (07 productioon year) and yes it will be a retroish car. It will also have mover power then any of the production vettes before it;s release. meaning that it will be over 400HP. It's also going to be spensive.


here a link with some info and pics

that sounds like an awful lot of speculation there. funny chevy is ripping of the mustang again 40 years later, that compny has no imagination

there are several different artist reditions out. none of them are 100% correct but you can get the idea.


and that has nothing to do with ripping off a mustang. everyone if going retro. look at the POS thunderbirds.

too expensive. what happened to the day when the average american could afford a good, strong, domestic vehicle? looks like dodge is gonna make another killing. just like the original mopars. ford and chevy need to lower prices.

it's going to be a specialty vehicle like the vettes. would you not expect to pay a lot for a low 12 second car off the showroom floor?

i ppen to know a guy that used to be high up in GM. the new Camaro is being built to directly compete with the mustang. the base will have a v6 or i5 and the better version wil have the same engine that is in the 06 z51 vette, 400 hp. i don't know about the Firebird but he says its dead and to expect the return of the Le Mans with a v6.

I don't think f-bodies have been built since '93 to compete with Mustangs...

Maybe you meant the Cobra?
