Title: The rebirth of the Camaro.
Post by: ReBurn on January 15, 2006, 10:19:09 PM
At the Detroit auto show they unveiled the new Camaro concept car, modeled after the 1969 model.  Which was, incidentally, my favorite model year for the Camaro.

I realize that it may not be suited to everyone's tastes, but think I kind of like it.

BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
I ran over my neighbors
BITCHIN CAMARAO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Now it's in all the papers.
My folks bought me a BITCHIN CAMARO with no insurance to match;
So if you happen to run me down, please don't leave a scratch.
I ran over some old lady one night at the county fair;
And I didn't get arrested, because my dad's the mayor.
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Doughnuts on your lawn
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Tony Orlando and Dawn
When I drive past the kids, they all spit and cuss,
Because I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO and they have to ride the bus.
So you'd better get out of my way, when I run through your yard;
Because I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO;
And an Exxon credit card.
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Hey, man where ya headed?
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
I drive on unleaded.


I've never been a fan of the "muscle" cars - my knuckles don't scrape the pavement, so it's very awkward and difficult to reach the controls.  Nice looking car, though.

Well, it just so happens that my knuckles do scrape the pavement, but my dad says that I'm only the second generation on my mom's side of the family that's walking upright.

I used to have a '76 Camaro, but I never had the opportunity to paint it primer grey.

Looks like a crossbreed of a Mustang and a Corvette.

I believe that it sort of always was.

I heard about this.  I'm glad you did all the leg work for me finding the pictures and stuff.  I like it.  It does look a lot like the new Mustang, which I like even more.  Of course, I've always liked Mustangs more.

Mustangs are also knuckle scrapers.

I was going to say that it looks like a cross between the new Mustang and the new Charger.

I think it looks bad ass.  I wonder how much I could save if they don't paint it.

Gamp, I listened to that on my Ipod this morning.

I like it overall, though I think the front end is a little too pointy.  It gets away from the idea of the muscle car, which was to take a badass looking steel brick and push it through the air with a giant, fire-breathing beast of an engine.

The resurgence of good old-style car design is a good thing.  New car designs are generally shit.  The Mustangs were getting -laughable-

I like it.  Couldn't fit in it, but like it.

paint it gloss black or candy apple red and it will look bitchin as well.     Gray isnt a flattering color for any car,  but they probably do it to make it seem less flashy so you can imagine it a diff color alot easier.

Actually, they forgot the back half.  You know, where you put shit.  Doesn't surprise me, though, they've been forgetting that on Trucks for like 10 years.  It's actually hard to find a pickup that can haul 4'x8' sheets anymore.

See, there's where you're wrong.  If you fold them you can put lots of sheets in the back of a pickup.  Even the ones that go on a King size bed.

I'd rather have to buy a whole semi with trailer than try to fold a fitted sheet.
