Latest Chevrolet Camaro Spy Photos in Scandinavia

whats with all the camo, we already know what the car looks like, in the line of body shape and looks.

yea i dont understand the camo either, it only attracts more attention. But it looks very nice tho!

Hehe...I just wonder about last paragraph of this article sayin' , that the writer doesn't understand why the New Cam will not directly compete with M3s, AMGs and RSes. Last sentence partially does explain it. But he did not necessarilly have to go back in 60's to see the mission of this car. I think to sit and drive few Muscles would be more than enough to understand what this car is gonna be about. Reborn in contemporary emotional muscle car fever New Cam is gonna please the hearts of ruff ride lovers. High volume engine with reasonable power, bubbly sound, fat fenders and bad bad face. Who would expect smooth ride and suspension paired withm precise steering control? If then go for rough Nissie GT-R ro some german pearls which does have it all. Cam is gonna ask us: "Have u really got the balls to play with me guys?" Ever driven auto-box older Corvette's with TCS-off? Ever tried to drift it and play with it on wet tarmac? May be some old Charger? Unleashed ruff pleasure? With full respect to amazingly tuned Bimmers, Audis and Mercs, CAM is not a car for suit-tie bunnies being busy with driving M3 Cabrio's along beach-promenades. Last but not least it's quite emotional thing to jump into american muscles. At least pretty simmilar as to try convince hard core Ferrari track-freak of love to sophisticated Porsche-Turbos. Each CAR and Make has a special kind of spirit and emotions in it. That's why we buy them! U You are not buying M3 to go shopping to your local supermarket........are you?

Ok still don't know why WCF have shown the interior...look awesome....here is the site:

Why testing in Scandinavia? Has climate changes meant that Canada is now too hot?

No, we just don't have a resort dedicated to automobile winter testing. It's like Whistler over there with chalets, restaurants, night clubs, pretty cool if you ask me. If they come up here what are they going to do? Cuddle up to polar bears at night for warmth?

Why Sweden? Obviously it is closer to the big European manufacturers than Canada and Russia. Why americans in Sweden? There is developed infrastructure which does them coming to Scandinavia. Better road system than in, let's say, Canada. Distance between cities is not that far as well. Of course spending hundrers of km-s turning the "steero" every day/night testers need to get some social life as well. Their life is not all about work.

I doubt Scandinavia has a better road infrastructure than Canada. Even if it did, I doubt the difference were so significant to make it worth cross the Atlantic because of that (we're talking about two first-world regions). Even if there were such a significant difference, I don't think they're looking for the best road conditions. In fact, I think it's pretty much the opposite; they want to test the cars in harsh conditions. Curved roads perhaps? I think it'd be easier to find them in Sweden than Alberta.

Like i said above, this is a "resort" has fully equipped garages that are heated, its not #1 in the world for winter testing for no reason, its basically a car factory, a winter rally racetrack, and a ski resort all mixed into 1.

Well let's get it right...tha places in north Sweden where the cars undergo wintertesting do noth have that many roads but their condition is more than good for logistic purposes when it comes to transporation needs. U can not consider by means of infrastructure just the road network. I'm talking about general infrastructure for living. U can feel the hugh difference if u gotta wake up by 3 or 4 o clock in the morn to get everything ready for nxt testday. testdriving requires 100 % concentration of drivers skills for all the time he's sitting behind the wheel. After 100s kms a day spent driving on the snow,ice in poor visibility to smoke a cigarette sitting on a pile of snow with a wolf looking at you is really last thing u'd wish to do. Apart from social factors, resort dedicated resort in Sweden is highly developed from technical point of view. There are several companies based in the area offering turn-key testing solutions and top-spec services. Last but nost least u would find there severa component-makers i.e. Bosch which is pretty important for car-mekers as well. This all has built up a specific kind of testing industry in North Sweden. That's why Finland, former Mekka for Winter tests, started loosing it's position couple years ago. But yes u gotta consider weather conditions as well. Temperature changes by means of short periods, surface etc. So if u'd ignore Scandinavia the only 2 places which remain are either Canadian NWT or Russian Siberia. As said b4, none of 'em has reached got such development grade like Swedish resort.

Back to Andres: meaning of wintertestng has changed within a yers since time when car makers started wintertesting by trying to make non-freezing doorlocks and to tune-up the performance of windscreen blowers. It's got to do more with electronics today that's one of the reason why Bosch is based there as well. So again it's not just about roads and road conditions. It's a full complex of fact that make this are top-of the range.

WOW this car is going to look so bad-ass in black, this soooo shoud have been the new knight rider. not that dressed up mustang.
