They desperately need to improve the interiors of all of those cars. At least they improved the materials for the Mustang (not sure about the other two) but they're not very nice to look at.

I'm looking forward to the day when the Camaro has no windows at all.
What is with all these new cars being built like WW2 bunkers?

I'm not a crazy fan of the camero, but what are you talking about? The Z/28 is one of the fastest cars of any type in history on the Nurburgring

A lot of it has to do with safety regulations:

lol it was just a stereotype joke.
Muscle cars cant turn etc... etc...
The Camero was fast but not nearly "one of the fastest". They should redo the test in dry conditions.
Also, how nimble are the base Cameros and not the Z-types?

For me the number one safety feature is visibility. I refuse to buy cars that I can't properly see out of...which is probably why most of my cars are old.

That looks a lot better. If its soft that will be a solid interior. Looks like it might be low on places to put stuff though?

2 cupholders, looks like the armrest might hide storage and a glove box. You could always put a Thule box on the roof...

Camaro drivers don't need places to put stuff. That's what fanny packs are for.

Birds of a feather. My Golf R, has similar Tune/Stg2.
But, I bought a second set of wheels. (stocks for winter)
19" BBS LM's, because really, I wanted a Porsche, but the best I can do is wear their shoes.

They're one and the same, only difference is the shaker hood. At least I think so, I've been geeking out on these things since they've been announced.

Are you talking F-Body?
If so, one of my favourite cars was my 1987 Trans Am GTA 305 TPI with a 5 speed and T-Tops. The car was deep burgundy.
I really wish I never ditched that car, as GTA's with 5 speeds, and T-roofs, are ultra rare. Had the car in 1995-1996, and I think I blew the factory sub-woofer in that thing blaring Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. And yes I had a mullet, AND a totally boss leather fanny pack in the day.
Looked exactly like this one:
