Yeah I know unfortunately the only ones I can find are between 215 and 268 a piece. There made by American Classics.

Firstly, that black design is damn pretty. I'd rock that all day.

On the other, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to disagree with you guys....

At first glance, it looked gawdy. But, the more I sit and look at it, the more I'm starting to kinda want one. I really, REALLY don't like the headlights. That strip is just nasty. But, everything else works with it rather nicely, I think. And, look at the *** on that thing! It's friggin beautiful!!

I love the looks of it, if I had the money I wouldn't even second guess my decision on buying one. IF AND ONLY IF THE PRODUCTION CAR LOOKS LIKE THE CONCEPT. (which it wont, because GM loves to screw up all of its concepts)

No, not this time.
I like the C5 Vettes followed by the C6 and C2 gens.

@Enzo354 - The Camaro concept vs the production model are really close. The concept had MONSTER sized wheels (I think 20"s in the front and 22"s in the rear, production models have the same style rims but smaller size). The side mirrors were also changed (concept mirrors were too narrow).

The biggest change I did not like in the new Camaro was the door handles. The concept had had little brushed aluminum door handles (I doubt they were functional) and the production model has these ugly painted hook like things hangin' out.
