interior is 10x better than mustang but kinda loud trim(can't wait to see in carbon fiber), i really like the red one, and the rim options are nice!

Great looking on the outside, but the dashboard looks kinda f***ed up. But really mean stance on the car itself

Bleh, better than the mustang and charger, but that definitely is not saying anything really.

I don't care for the dash either, but I can see where they were aiming. The dash looks like the 67-69 dashes, but a bit more modern.

Now that z28 photo someone posted is the hottest looking one I have seen yet.

I was a die-hard GM man before my e90, but I don't see me going back. I would like to see one in person though, and a test drive.

AND, if BMW don't get the 29.2 lag problem fixed, I may consider it.

Have you seen a GTI's dash?

A base GTI is much less than $31k and it's dash puts the Camaro's to shame.

Does it weigh as much as a Veyron? Great engine, but a lot of chunk with it.

A fully loaded GTI isn't far off the price and does not come with a 420+ HP V8 and RWD with LSD. There are compromises with savings on all sides.

I beleive, like most modern cars, it is hefty. From what I recall it is supposed to come in around 3800 lbs but I could be wrong. If that figure is correct, it is not a pig in modern terms.

I am very much in love with the new Camaro, i also am hoping Holden Australia is allowed to import them. GM better have plans to make the car RHD so my wish of owning a new SS comes true.

I actually think the 2010 mustang has a way nicer interior. Some teaser shots are on this website.

That Z28 is hot. I'd rock a mullet behind the wheel of one.

As far as I know there is no Z28, yet. Just the V6 and SS.

I think tis closer to 4,000lbs than 3800lbs. Thats heavy.

But if it performs,, it performs. Kinda like the GT-R, or the new CTS-V.

There are a few pics on the net of the Z's proposed look. I doubt it will make it anytime soon.

Weight for the SS is around 3890lbs with manual trans.

To take me back to the days of my 70 Chevelle SS 396. It was Cortez silver with black stripes. Silver SS with black stripes may take a few years off. Pop a Foghat CD in and I am reliving some good times. Some nice wheels and dark tint would work for me. I am curious as to how this rascal handles. The shark fin kills the roof line flow.

I almost ordered one ... but just couldnt do it. I saw one in person at Barrett Jackson here in Vegas ... really big but very nice. Still has a real big GM feel to it.
