Other than that I'm sure it's a very nice car. I'd drive it.

For 32 grand I guarentee you are going to see alot of these on the road. It does no disgrace to "muscle" cars at all, the fact you take so much offence to it all puzzles me a lot. oOo:

There's no real thought put into it. It was originally a car produced by GM in Australia if I remember right. They swap the badges and call it a GTO? It makes me worry for the fate of the Camaro.

hopefully they will re badge the impala put a new engine in and call it a camaro.

HellI would kill for the Ford Tierra RS 2.0 to come here from over their, It the type of car that would give most civics a domestic beating.

What?

Id kill to see another camaro that wasnt retro styled, wasnt overly modern looking and its standard engine was an ls6 for a base price of 30k

The gto looks like balls but its got a sweet ride and an even better engine, My uncle almost bought one. Id love to test drive it
