i've seen 3 or so up my way. I'm not that far from Lang Lang.
In the city today I spotted a new chev camaro parked.
Talked to the guy in the drivers seat, he said he and a few associates are looking to import about 20 or so into Melb, convert them to RHD and sell them! Apparantly they can only import '20 a year', but they're guna try and see if they can get around it somehow and import more otherwise theyre guna be quite expensive
it was exact same as the bumblebee camaro in transformers movie(except in red) !
Tuff as!
Anyone else seen one of these on our roads?

mmm love the look of Camaros. love to have one
There have been a heap of mules around for quite a while. Not seen a red one before though.

judgling by the wheels and lack of air vent on the bonnet looks like the v6 model
Sorry looks like ass.
If this is the base model, its like the VE commodore, looks pretty ordinary, but go up the model range, and that should see some improvements in visual appearance...
Personally I think they could look quite nice with the right set of wheels, the right ride height, and a classy paint job, (im a fan of that silver that ive seen them in) and maybe a billet style grille covering the headlight and lower grille area, it could be a real head turner...
So much potential, and GM made a complete mince of it. I'm glad Chrysler at least made a decent looking car out of the new Challenger... shame it's apparently not such a hot car to drive.

Saw a Camaro just last week Saturday travelling along the Princess Hwy. meet up with him at the Bairnsdale BP, damn nice car!
Saw one a couple weeks ago on the west gate freeway city bound... think it was a red one. Could have well been that one in the original post.
And just last week, Thursday to be exact, I spotted a white new Nissan GTR in the Keilor area. No plates, woman driver. Very impressive looking car!
he didnt say how much they were gunna be??
id love one
saw a black about a month ago and the covers coming of a black one the week it was launched/shown in the paper, look horn as, would love one in a couple of years, yeh a price would be awesome![]()
Yeah, I know where it is. I was being facetious. Sphinx has "Pakistan" as his address and said he lived not far from Lang Lang.
Seeing as the Camaro has now been released in the States and production is underway in Canada, how come you guys are still seeing so many running around in Victoria? I woiuld have thought the testing stages were finished and any further testing would be conducted in the States or Canada.
Export them to the yanks for cheap then buy them back at an inflated price.
Makes business sense to me Lol!
Certainly has got potential (the OP).
Those wheels are ordinary - could've done much better there. I'd like to see a higher spec model. (Is that one in the pic above? Looks like a concept car photo).

as for the camaro, **** yeee love it (only the SS or RS models but) would definatly buy one
I dun mind the camaro, from the outside anyway. But WTF were they thinking with the interior!!!!
![]()
wtf were they thinking indeed, its like a old one with leather n better dials n lights lol u could be sick in the car n not even tell the difference....
You guys ever heard of retro??? That car isn't marketed at you - it's aimed at the guys who are now in their 50's who remember the original Camaro's that were around when they were a kid.

I'm far from being in my 50's and I still think that interior is kinda cool.
Plus those pics are the concept car, I doubt the production car interior would look like that...
