I hope they change the gauges on the Camaro. Those would be horrid in real world use.

I havent heard anything about going to rear-wheel drive except the g8 of course but i guess they are going though a few battles with that as I read up top.

Is it just me or does the G8 look short and stubby? I mean...how long is it supposed to be? It may just be the beefy front end...which I think looks like an SUV (...what was that....an Aztec?) The rims look like an off shoot of my 20-spokers... but easier to clean...

SURPRISE! GM'* RWD adventure is short-lived:

I can't really say that this is GM'* fault, but damnit my maxim comes to play time and time again: Every time GM does something right, they stop doing it shortly thereafter. EVERYTIME.

Thats obvious. But after a few years, will they still be around?
