This shot doesn't look as bad, but it's still not quite right.

JMOH, I am sick of the retro crap! Can't these designers come up with something totally original???? Some of the stuff was kinda cool at first...but come on! Now all the domestic MFG's are just jumping on the wagon with each other. BORING! I'm sure they will keep selling the crap out of these "retro mods" or what ever they are called, but for me no thanks. Just my .2

Dont be so ignorant of american products. People jump on this bandwagon so easily. GMs arent crap like some of you people seem to think. the LS1 speaks for itself.

Honestly, GM doesn't really need the camaro anymore. They already have the GTO, and it lines up perfectly in that spot. IMO, what the the american market is missing is a lightweight rwd car, like the S2000. Now if GM could get over it's love affair with combining small v8's with FWD sedans, they'd have a hit.

Back to topic, I would have greatly preferred some kind of edgy new style to a "look at me, I'm retro too" style. Love 'em or hate 'em, the new edgy styling of the caddy lineup is unique.
i think the Solstice would be a good candidate to compite against the S2000 dont you think?

had explorer for 5 years along w/ 4 runner and ended up totalling explorer within 4~5 years whereas 4 runner still runs like a new car.

I think your Explorer was what's normally called "baffed"...etc
Totalled usually refers to a car being written off after an accident
