The only things we know is it’s not coming back in the way we expect and whatever it is has to be “more practical” per Mark Reuss.
The hope for a coupe is simply the previous history on Cadillacs off of Alpha.
GM did coupes off of both the ATS and CTS. Neither sold particularly well but...
Ok, to be clear there are several ways to look at this.
First camp. Camaro IS a coupe and screw GM REGARDLESS of how awesome the car is I won’t buy one because coupe.
Second camp. SS sedan was nice. back then it would have been nicer with more than 6 speeds in the automatic and some...
GM has done about all they usually, more so in fact. The rest, for the next year or more, will be our speculation. What will be more interesting is will there be the typical bunch of camouflaged prototypes at the usual point in time. IVERs without head and tail lamps were usually about 80...
I’ve heard it was late last year. But I’m also guessing it’s somewhat an ongoing process. And until it’s time to kick off major tools which can have a 52 week lead time (highly styled or complex panels like a door inner panel) surface styling can be flexible up to a mm or so fairly late. But...
They pretty much said Alpha 2 so won’t be mid engine. And as we’ve been told it has to be more practical, a mid engine is in the wrong direction. And the very last thing GM needs is a cheaper Corvette. 3 strikes right ther.
Body rigidity is the main culprit as that leads to the creaks. Weight can be fixed with material choices but that is also generally plus $.
lots of good hatches today.
I would predict a hatch just on the “more practical” comments from Reuss.
I’m not sure it fixes the issues but hoping...
And so it begins.
Number 3 because that was the VIN of the CTF Gen5 Camaro I had the good fortune to be assigned way back When I worked for GM.
Camaro5, 6 and now hopefully 7G is just where I’ve gone to discuss great cars.
interesting that it’s 7G. I remember years ago looking up Camaro7.com...
