Ewen Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 The conversation started badly and got steadily worse. I dont like being told I drive a chavvy car, and he certainly didnt like being told he drives an ugly, hump-backed, Allegro gold, Renault engined GT wannabe 'styled' by some twonk from Cov Uni who has a thing for B&Q kitchen door handles. Then he came out with his Camaro plan. They are being built in Australia, so will be available as right hand drive imports. His names down on a waiting list, for delivery in '09. Reckons it will be circa £25k plus some decent options, maybe £30k all in. Oh, and its based on the Monaro VX floor pan blahdy blahdy blah. Part of me screamed bad handling psuedo cool crap, but christ that car is gorgeous. B*stard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have I missed a thread of yours about you buying one of these ? If the latter, I apologise. He got me on the wrong foot, and yes, I admit they have really nice window wipers.

Ewen Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 Its quite angular isnt it? My kind of styling. It is very very effective as an updated homage to the original. Theres a rumour of an importer in Manchester area who is a Chrysler specialist and is already well genned up as to actual availability. Anyhoo, I'm supposed to be buying a house.

RedM Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 At a quick glance it looks like one of those awful Chrysler 300 atrocities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Yeah i like the angular aspect of it, it just appears quite 'conceptual' in those first images. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 No... I graduated from Cov Uni after 4 years studying Automotive engineering design Any input into this design? Personally I love the stance, the lines are true and anyone would pay 500 sheets for the mirrors if they were Supra compatible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
