New Camaro Pictures Including Scrapped Retro Concept!

**nsap** · 01-19-2006, 06:11 PM

The concept on the left in this picture is of the more retro version that was headed to the NAIAS....until Rick Wagoner (yes, you read right) scrapped it for the more modern version on the right.

Below are the original drawings by GM designer Sang Lee who penned the design language for the Camaro concept!

These images are of early Camaro Concept prototypes.

Did you just digitally put those Camaros next to Ed Wellburn's Camaro.

Xeper · 01-19-2006, 06:22 PM

Whats with the concepts on the first picture?

Buick61 · 01-19-2006, 06:23 PM

I think they are the earlier full-size clay mockups with the photo-realistic wheels that they affix.

I like the top far right one...that one's awesome! I like the concept car better then the sketches though.

Nice picture, thanks! Looks like the one with different sides on the front end might be the clay model. Looks exactly like the leaked picture I remember seeing on here that had to get pulled.

Xeper · 01-19-2006, 06:59 PM

Good work Rick Wagoner.

If he hadnt stepped in to that, we would had seen too much retro at NAIAS. A more modren approach is what the Camaro needed.

**ChevyRules** · 01-19-2006, 07:02 PM

Thank you! The scrapped one is fugly! For once Wagoner did something right!
