They do...its called a Corvette.

Wait, you expected the driver to actually race the Boxster? I assure you that the new Camaro will have no problem raping the Boxster in a road course.

Man that exhaust note sounds sweet! The Camaro looks hot in black too.

I understand the need. Can't put a V6 in a vehicle and call it GTO. Never have, never will.

Above all, that front end theme keeps reminding me of the old TA23 Celica. To my eye it also shares generic similarity in rear 3/4 aspect, albeit with chop-top.

That had a manual in it!! It was rolling backward as it waited to drive out of the gas station.
Exact same color I'd get it in, too. I can't wait to see them out on the roads.

Re: Excellent new video of 2010 Camaro on German roads and in testing (6+ minutes)

Even though this is a 'Mule' is it fair to speculate that this will be a 'Mid-Level Trim' model?

Looks real good...
I must show the short version of this video in the YouTube thread...

Sometimes the car sounded good and other times it sounded like a tractor. I'm sure it will be more refined when the final product hits the streets.

It will be nice to see the Camaro/Mustang/Challenger rivalry back again.

You want a car that can keep up with or pass a Porsche in the turns, then upgrade to the Corvette.

True indeed!!!!!

Bumblebee was actually a modified Pontiac GTO with a now extinct LS2...but yea I do agree it does sound amazing.

An American car on Aussie plates in Germany. How often does that happen?

It's funny how nice snow looks on film.

I'm really liking the headlights on the new Camaro.
