I'm not their audience, but I hope the next gen Camarto tones down the cartoony aesthetics. It looks like a life-sized version of something that would appear in Cars.

One thing I'm really hoping for is that GM brings back another Holden product. It's too bad the G8 came about so late in the game....that was a really good combo of something that looked muscular without being over the top.....and backed it up with performance.

To me it looks like a Hot Wheels car.

^^^ That is without a doubt the single most ######ed thing I have ever seen done to a car. I bet they are V6's too.

With the money spent on those wheels, you could have probably done hard, under hood, mechanical mods and got another 200 horsepower out of the car.

Definitely down for that. Then again, I'll use any excuse to get the Porsche out for a spin. Hopefully work doesn't get In the way.

I think Sliver is referring to the GT/CS.

California Special - This mod version pays tribute to the original West Coast wild thing - the '68 GT California Special (GT/CS) thats become a collector's classic. Today's new, exclusive-to-GT option is available in limited edition nationwide. It comes with a front fascia that flaunts a prominent air intake, and a chin spoiler that's a good 1.5" lower than Mustang GT's usual one. There's a slick pair of side scoops, mid-body GT/CS tape stripes, plus 18" polished-aluminum wheels. In back, the rear fascia houses a racing-inspired diffusser, while the exhaust brandishes bright, rolled tips. Inside, Dark Charcoal leather-trimmed seats are contrasted with Dove or Parchment leather inserts. Let Mustang GT/CS happen to you!
Entirely cosmetic and it is a limited edition.

Thanks GWE, that is the one. It's an awful, awful car.

I test drove a 2012 5.0 and their tester was a CS. It was embarrassing and sapped half the fun out of the experience.
