I often browse these forums for pics of cars... For some reason, no matter what angle I look at my Camaro from, the rear of the car seems so wide and square.

The front, also seems odd... knowing the size of the car's engine bay, the total front end of the car looks huge. Then when you see the fenders without the coolant/washer bottles on them, they look emmense.

Now don't get me wrong, I love 3rdgens and wouldn't have it any other way, its just wierd how different they look sometimes... in pics vs. in person.

 

Mine doesn't look all the wide,

 

mine looks to skinny

jon

 

Wide, are you crazy? Compared to like a geo metro its wide. Birds have the wider rear end by nearly 3" near the top. I like it that way.

 

even though it's a pontiac quote....wider is better

 

I LOVE THE WAY MY CAR LOOKS. ITS PERFECT. ALL I NEED IS WIDER TIRES. "WIDER IS BETTER!!!'

 

Wider is definitely better...But sometimes I think mine is too narrow.

 

Just about right I think

 

 

Too wide! Wideness was one of the main reasons I wanted a [thirdgen] Camaro. Wider isnt just better, its badass

 

Now that looks pimp...where can I get one?

 

maybe Sir Mix-Alot was singing about our third gens when he sang : ........I Like Big Butts and I cannot lie you other brothers cant deny.........LOL:lala:

 

overall thirdgen's are bad grass!!!! if you catch my drift!!!!they are perfect for looks, performance and it doesnt matter if you dont have skill to drive cause the car does it on its own. MUCH BETTER THAN NEW CAMAROS!!!!!

 

yeah there deff better then the 4th gens.. (my fav gen is 3rd) But i like it that they do look wide, but it looks cool tho 3rd gens will never be outta style, there hot lookin cars, tons of ppl stare at me when i drive down the road. A real eye catcher if you ask me. But also seems like ppl give it alot of stereotypes, but we have to live with that

I like mine, just the way it is

 

i like the way mine looks... i guess it has to do with the tires

 

I like how wide mine is too....just wish it was a bit lower.....one of these days...it will be

 

wider is better

 

zepher, i love to see the streetracing.com sticker, except that its now streetracing.net so i guesse u'll have to change it

 

I'm just curious as to why everyone's posting pictures of their car as if one person's thirdgen is wider or narrower than someone else's thirdgen in the thread.

(Not that I mind... nice lookin' cars... )

 

Same here

 

mine just seems really long sometimes.....
i think its mostly because its a vert... the coupes dont look long.. atleast to me.

 

Sitting in the garage next to my '66 Caprice, the Firebird looks really narrow.

 

PAINT YOUR CAR.

 

Too wide? Naaawh...


Ken

 

its not to wide but your plate is to damn small....LMAO.....

 

yeah ken, seems like in NORWAY that your front plates are to long and the rear is to small, I think it loooks kool tho

 

EvilCartman How did you fill in where the rear emblem used to be and make it look so good without deleting the whole indented line?

 

i like the way mine looks

 

It's like that with the stock 82 bumper I've got the Z28 sticker sitting on a shelf for when the new paint goes on.

 

 

Don't you remember those Pontiac commercials from a few years back? "Wider is better!"

 

Gotta love that rear!!!

 

When I see it in a parking space, I think is should take up more of it width wise. Wide and low.

 

as do i!

 

"wider is better.... wider and lower is more gooder" :rockon:


or maybe it's even betterer. you get the idea

I'll make one comment that somewhat pertains to the original post. I have had my front bumper and fenders off for a while and what amazes me is just how much longer the car is due to the bumper support and the shape of the nose. I woudn't change it though... I'd hate to have a pug nose car like say a mustang.
