Very cool.....I like its aggressive look.  Seems to be a blend of '68 to '70 Chevelles with a dash and a half of imagination.  I much prefer the first tail light configuration shown.

Almost looks like a Hoonigan car Ken Block would have driven.

I like it!  If the Big Three automakers were smart, they'd give up trying to contend with Toyota, Honda and the other Foreign makes, and go back to "throw-back" Muscle Cars!  It would be market that could be exclusive to the Big Three.  I really believe that making cars fun again would be something different for car buyers.  Cars over the last couple of decades have become "just another car" no matter what you see on the road.  Bringing back the "oozing with excitement" cars could be the future!

If this car were to be produced, Chevrolet would not be able to build these fast enough.

Nostalgia with a modern twist. That pricing seems far too cheap. As a previous owner of an original Chevelle SS, I am attracted and impressed.

@jack-dodds Actually 67-70, with the wraparound taillights.  I have seen other variations that the taillights are identical to the 70 model, so not sure what to believe.

@carsman1958 Yes you are quite right about the '67 tail light feature in one of the offerings.  I like the other tail light design better myself.
