First real look at the next Camaro?

The internet strikes again. The long-rumored revival of the Chevy Camaro got an early airing when these purloined pictures were leaked onto the Web. The photos, which appear to have been taken at General Motors' Michigan design center, show a muscular coupe obviously inspired by the 1967-69 Camaro. Note that the car is not quite in its final form--the left and right halves are slightly different, to show two styling proposals. If approved for production--and that's a big if--we'd expect the Camaro to ride on GM's new Zeta rear-wheel-drive platform being developed in Australia and to offer a choice of V-6 or small-block V-8 engines. We don't expect it to arrive before 2008.

I think they did a good job of the basic wedge-profile of the car, and the front quarter is sleek and purposeful.

However, the rear lights don't sit right on the car, and as well as being too high, look kooky.

What this car needs to be is modern, not retro. Classic styling elements can be used, but the design needs to point into the future, not the past.

front looks nice...back looks horrible...just the opposite of the pictures of the "new Camaro/Chevelle SS" in one of the articles in this week's newsletters.
