Dammit, more freaking retro concepts.

They look just like the camaro, minus part of the front clip.

If I wanted a '69 looking Camaro or Firebird I'd go out and buy or build one from the new kit they have out (yes, you can completely from the ground up build a '69 Camaro)

Is that really a suprise to you? If the new Camaro is retro what did you expect the Trans Am to look like? Of course they will look the same they are the same car.

Its not that I think the cars look bad, its just that I'd like to see something new, sure the cars are nice looking and all but... I dont know, just ranting I guess.

Same, do you mean the new retro mustang? Or the body style before it (around the 2000 style)?

I, on the other hand, could TOTALLY see myself owning the white Trans Am.

I think he means the new body style. I see it somewhat also, only on the white one though. If you ignore the front end and make it taller it looks kinda like it.

I see what your talking about but I still dont think it looks anything like a mustang, taller, front end, or not.

A little taller, some body work, and it would look just like a 04 stang, if my photoshop worked i could show you sry sad.gif

There's enough differences that I can deal. Frankly the old Mustangs and Camaros had relatively similar body styles. The black one's making me think its time to remake Smoky and the Bandit.

    Yeah,  the older cars from past eras all do kinda look similar. I like the retro feel gm is finally going for it. I didnt really like the revision they did last. Made them too importy.  A friend of mine said he read that they were putting an ls1 in these biatches. Me I personally would like to see an ls6 in them. Although after reading playboy's article car wars, I doubt it highly. Nice find regardless

Looks good, reminds me of those Fisher Price cars you buy for the toddlers though. I miss my original.

I'LL HAVE TO AGREE, I'M A FIREBIRD COLLECTOR AND RESTORER, I LOVE THESE CARS, I WOULD HAVE TO SAY I'M HAPPY TO THINK THAT THEY ARE MAKING THERE WAY BACK TO US, I LOVE THE COLORS USED, IT IS DEFINITELY GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION WITH THE RETRO LOOK TO THE 1977 BANDIT SCHEME, BUT THE BODY NEEDS MORE REFINEMENT IT LOOKS TO MUCH LIKE THE MUSTANG... THE NEW CHARGER CONCEPT STEALS THE SHOW!! YOU GUYS NEED TO CHECK THAT BABY OUT...JUST BEAUTIFUL, SMOOTH BODY LINES AND IT SAYS MUSCLE CAR ALL OVER IT!! THE TRANS AM NEEDS TO BE ON A PLATFORM OF ITS OWN AND HAVE THAT PONTIAC OUTLAW MENTALITY THAT SET THEM ASIDE FROM ALL THE OTHER DETROIT AUTOMAKERS ...ALTHOUGH THEY WERE UNDER GM RULING THEY CONTINUED TO MAKE A STATEMENT. THE CAR NEEDS THAT POW!!!! THAT MAGIC THAT MADE IT THE LEGEND IT IS AND SEPARATED IT FROM THE CAMARO.... BACK TO BASIC GUYS, YOU CAN DO IT...
