camaro94 street rep is low. keep going
I've gotten to the point that I care very little one way or the other. The newer car market is starting to suck, and is hardly affordable to so many people, and so are the older cars whose 'collector value' has skyrocketed to the point of ridiculousness. . I've just given up caring anymore.

I don't care if the Camaro comes back or not, cause I won't be able to afford for sure.

lol ur looking at the short term
I cant afford an 2002 SS camaro now. But hey maybe in 5 years ill be able to get one. And maybe in 5 years after that ill be able to get a 2007 camaro...but maybe not. Even if i wont be able to at the time, some time down the road i will be able to. But if they dont make it at all, ill never be able to own it. Get where im coming from?

I thought it was basically almost for sure that the Camaro was not gonna be on the Zeta platform anyhow, because the roofline was too high to be a true Camaro.
Eh, ok my bad, I truely thought it was over a week ago that I read about it, but it was in fact Friday, but it was hinted at it for awhile on cz28.com.

to build on what arch is saying, also, there are contracts that GM is legally bound to that they are not allowed to talk about specific details about the Camaro or say that the Camaro will be coming back, but the contract ends within the next year or so (I can't remember exactly when, I just remember reading that it should be perfectly in time for the 2007/2008 release)

Besides, if they do bring it back they'll probably botch it anyway, and not many will want one then. If its anything like the Charger, and the Chevelle thats been worked on, I know I'll stay far away.

yeah, both the charger and the chevelle are kind weak. I liked the '99 concept of the Charger, though.

All I can say is :banghead: . I love to see american muscle alive and well, but it just doesn't seem right without a RWD V-8 in the stable. I pray that things change, and they revive the muscle that GM is known for.
