Voice your opinion on the new Camaro

Hot Rod is conducting a survey on the new Camaro that they are going to present to GM. That way we the consumer can voice our opinion before the car hits production. Everyone please do me a favor and vote for solid axle not IRS. If I buy the new Camaro when it hits the market I don't want to pay extra for a solid axle. Hot Rod's Camaro survey

It will more than likely have a solid axle. Cheaper to produce and more of what people want in this type of car.

this car would be bad ass.. im sure if they make the Z28 itll be like the SS's of the past, and i think the SS will be the 427 model like a Z06 but of course with less HP, like how they have always made corvettes and camaros, big brother little brother type a thing...

hell but if they did make the 600HP super charged omgggg i think id have to change my boxers cuz id mess up both ends

and i think it have to look more like a 68 SS, hugger orange with black rally stripes

I agree 100% OldSchoolFreak...

I had a 68 SSRS Camaro and was hoping it would look more like that than the 69. In person this car looks bada$$. The Dodge Challenger however looks pretty awesome also. I have not heard if they are going to produce that yet thought...

Either way I told my wife my next car is the Camaro...

Anyone heard if Pontiac will havea Firebird version?

It kinda surprises me that Pontiac hasn't already brought back the Firebird. Pontiac, as of late, seems to have been more daring and has had a different compnay philosophy as compared to Chevy. I'm sure Pontiac has it ready to go but it might be waiting to see what happens with respect to sales for the Camoro.

Who knows, I'm sure would speculate for days.

As of now, there will be no Firebird. But that may change. I saw a rendition that was made and it follows the '76 Blackbird theme. Looked nice.

My opinion on the New Camaro? Where to start...

I can tell ya what I'd put in it... A N/A Heavily tuned big block of some sort, (fuel injected, obviously) DSG, and that Quadrasteer tech that GMC was using a few years ago, Just for ****s & giggles.

But aside from my completely asinine suggestions, I like the direction it's heading now, But to be honest, I'd have added all wheel drive to it. If I have my way, Every car will have it. But other than THAT asinine suggestion, I wouldn't change a thing.
