Lingenfelter T/A Concept

Didn't know where to post this but I received an email from Car and Driver with this in it. I think it looks nice.

Re: Lingenfelter T/A Concept

That looks very nice and I can't stop drooling over it . I wish I had the money to buy something like that . Thanks for posting that link . The only thing I would change is the wheels from the honey comb style to the snowflake style .

Yeah the wheels look a little off to me, they look kinda like plastic.

Re: Lingenfelter T/A Concept

I think it's terrible and here is why.

The 5th gen camaro is based on the 67-69 (1st gen) body style. The nose they are putting on is from a 70-73 (early 2nd gen) body style. It would be like hanging a 71 Ta nose on a 69 firebird, its wrong and I dont like it. If you are going to turn the 5th gen Camaro into a Trans Am, it better look like the 69 Trans Am or don't bother. The 69 trans am has twin scoops and a different front end. See below...
