An education woulda stopped that error.... :AH-HA_wink: LOL!!!!!!

Those two interiors aren't that far off girly!

Yup, the steering wheel has GOT to go. It will be a sore point for many if that's what it comes out with IMO.

I think the dash gauges laid out to emulate the 69 Camaro's is the FIRST mistake. My brother owned a 69 Camaro, the dash was his biggest complaint, he didn't like it. Toss it in a modern car and it's even WORSE. I think the Chevy camp should be using their forums for INPUT, in hopes somebody at GM reads a forum or two, cause otherwise that's the interior that the new Camaro will be stuck with.

Are you talking about your techno-pic? LOL!

Some guys get stuck. I see all sorts of repetitive irritating stuff, hell I contribute repetitive irritating stuff too! It's tough getting over the top of a hill, and heading towards the next one.... :AH-HA_wink:

After watching Barrett-Jackson I'm not sure what price has to do with anything anymore.... :AH-HA_wink: I think the Mustang will be less expensive than either the Challenger or the Camaro. It's a proven product and Ford has the musclecar platform down pat as far as the Mustang goes. I can't see the Challenger OR the Camaro matching the Mustang's prices. I don't find the interior of the Mustang to be opulent, I don't find it to be luxurious. It's a nice "musclecar interior" as far as I'm concerned. Maybe I'm easy to please...? 30 grand isn't a high end car anymore. Even Kias and Hyundais cost more than I ever would have thought. Bringing down a price is either going to mean less quality, cutting corners, less features, whatever. A balance is going to have to be found, Challenger and Camaro. The lower the cost with the best product that still supplies PROFITS is what is going to work IMO. Selling features will be what brings people into dealerships to look at the cars, and the Camaro's interior design and the Challenger's STEERING WHEEL will be the stuff people will be rolling their eyes at I'm willing to bet. Both cars will sell, but how long they have continued sales success is what I wonder, it will be the tale of the tape IMO.

But throwing that in a $30,000 Jeep and comparing it to what you expect in a VERY high performance musclecar...? The money was spent on the drivetrain etc in the musclecar, both the Camaro and Challenger are NEW platforms. Cost cost cost? The interiors shouldn't be "bare bones" like the 60s, but for a NICE interior people are gonna have to PAY for the interior to be upgraded, don't you think? It only makes sense... WORK TRUCKS nowadays are 30K-40K. Prices are crazy.

I hope somebody loses the steering wheel parts bin!

Haha We used to like DRIVING the Omni GLH and GLH-S. It was being seen in them that was the painful part for most.... :AH-HA_wink:

LOL 30-40 grand ain't what it used to be. Neither an all out Challenger OR Camaro will be 30K with top of the line performance and opulent interiors. 40K will get what you want in either car I bet (depending on your tastes of course) but as far as a true "musclecar", these guys are kidding themselves. I see in the Camaro thread someone thought people were complaining about "MATERIALS" of the Camaro's interior. LOL Plush opulent interiors cost money and increase weight. Two things that won't go far in the musclecar wars...... :AH-HA_wink: Just like the dreaded B pillars, MONEY is the bottom line. Keyboard car guys can argue all night long every night, but corporate accountants will dictate what's gonna happen down the road. And leather wrapped rear view mirrors won't be high on ANYBODY's list at Chrysler OR GM.

So as a BEST CASE SCENARIO you claim the Camaro will be "a little more" than a Mustang. Better tell the above poster, he thinks they will be priced the same. LOL I'm willing to bet the Camaro will be priced higher for sure, it's a new car with investment costs. Same goes with the Challenger. It's a no-brainer.

Don't kid YOURSELF. The Mustang has been the best bang for your buck musclecar since the late 80s, and it was way under the price of a new Camaro SS when the Camaro was dropped last time. It coulda been saved by "just dropping prices" according to guys like YOU I guess, but GM can't lose money on every car sold. It's WON'T lose money on every car sold. MONEY is the bottom line. You'll see.....

I look back at old musclecars, which these things are SUPPOSED to emulate, and can't help but laugh at some of these posts. Ooohhh, it's not as plush as a Bentley! Ohhhhh, look at the interior, it's not leather wrapped gas and brake pedals..... My GAWD! GO DRIVE IN A 1960's MUSCLECAR!!!!!!! SOME OF YOU NEED A DOSE OF REALITY!!!!!!! Rubber floor mats and upholstered seats were about it as far as "luxury" went. Maybe stick to your ugly looking useless SUVs and leave the musclecar talk to those who remember what a musclecar was? </rant of rants>

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, you can sit in a new Camaro and look at the steering wheel and say "Hey, is this a 1980's Dodge Omni?" Not "just another Chevy" alright, it's a recycled DAWRDGE! The Camaro interior is borderline terrible. It is a complete DETRACTOR from the car.

And the "Well said" award goes to........... *drumroll please* :AH-HA_wink:

I wanna come back and look at this quote when the pricing for the Camaro comes out. I would bet the Camaro is gonna be priced alot higher than many are predicting and hoping, which won't be good for sales in the long run IMO...... Prices will be set according to product, if they don't cut corners with the Camaro don't expect it to be a bargain when it comes out. :AH-HA_wink:

Bang on as far as I'm concerned. The concept interior was gimmicky, not what I like at all. The production interior (IF this is it) looks MUCH better, but that steering wheel in a Challenger is borderline laughable. It detracts from the interior 10X more than most realize. CHANGE THE STEERING WHEEL!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol I love the SRT interiors of the other LX cars, if the Challenger had a decent wheel I would probably like it too.

Linky no work for me either...

Thoroughly insulting, but yes, it seems to be the new GLHS. LOL

We bought one in 1985 for $50. It was a nice car, absolutely NO rust or body damage, but the blue paint was faded, it looked kinda chaulky. I remember it had swivel buckets and a weird louvered hood scoop. Not a bad car, but I can't remember what happened to it, if we sold it, or what... LOL

Pretty damned cool looking if you ask me.

Not sure where you dreamt that one up.

Hahahaha

1980 Chrysler Cordoba LS "300" had the same 185hp 360. Both the Cordoba and Mirada only had the one year for the 185hp 360 though, as far as I know anyways... I like both the above Oldsmobiles, but the older one gets the nod for my tastes. I like the 1966 Cutlass too.
