It is not getting rave reviews, even with the domestics folks on other boards. Don't they usually run designs by people first? Geesh!

Yeah, I think if they just reproduced a 70 chevelle SS with an LS1 and modern gadgets it would be a hit

But, as for that one ... I've shit out better looking turds.

Everything but the rear looks like a newer Impala to me. Yet another example why the domestic manufacturers seriously need to hire some new designers.

Exactly take a 67-68 Camaro SS and give it that "new" look and you would sell them all day!

Why do they keep trying to bring back the old classics that do not even resemble them other than for the name. I agree, reproduce the old body stlyes and put the modern ammenities in, a bad ass drive train and see what a hit they are imo. They were so popular for a reason.

And yes I agree, it looks like an angry kitchen appliance that got hit w/ the ugly stick. Even w/ the photoshpop changes, they would have to be pretty drastic to change my mind.
