I truly hate to be critical; I'm keenly aware that there's a seat for every a**,  and Lord knows some of the vehicles I've owned prompted more than a few  giggles behind my back,  but....

Things like this, I'll never understand - one car is ruined to create a caricature  of another.   😳 😬 😳

Sad, but the owner can do whatever he pleases, his car his $.

The back seat is a joke all by itself.

Yes, true of all Camaros AND Mustangs since the 1990's.    Remember when they were all referred to as "2+2 cars?"

Yes sir, all too true. Porsche and Ferrari California as well. My SL has no back seat but the new ones do - they may seat a child under 6 but that's about it. Laugh

I think it is really cool looking.  Like the makeover.  Shame that it only has a V6.

This reminds me of the Chevy 789 that is built by N2a Motors in Anaheim California. Original ones were built on the 2010-2015 Camaro (red) and later ones are based on a C5 or C6 Corvette chassis (blk/turquoise). They're apparently popular and pricey.  Also, the company claims that no previously built combination of paint scheme and interior treatment will be duplicated.

That Camaro Belaro is no match for the 789!
