Only $3,400 to "get attention like a rockstar"? I'm all over it. That guy gets my Pimp-of-the-Year award.

It looks like they took the back from a Chevy Celebrity wagon. I guess it's no uglier than the Dodge Magnum.

Re: Is This For REAL?!?!?

There were Kammback Firebirds but not any Camaros...

If it were local, I'd buy it in a heartbeat & put a 'bird nose on it!

Why would you buy it? Could it have a good value because they're so rare?

I'd buy it because I LIKE it, not for value.

There was never even a Kammback Camaro & GM never released the Kammback GTA to the public. It was just a styling exercise. If somebody found a REAL one, it'd be 1 of 2 and never officially released. It would be the ONLY prototype & it snuck out! I'd store that Kammback bad body in a climate controlled garage. Too afraid to drive it, except for to car shows.

I've already kicked around the idea of building a Kammback hatch for my GTA.

Re: Is This For REAL?!?!?

Ugh... that car is full of FAIL. GM did make at least one prototype GTA wagon though, it was pretty much just a different hatch that looked like a truck camper shell.

Re: Is This For REAL?!?!?

I will be honest and say that it has slight, and very minimal, potential. It certainly is no Kammback. I would rock the Kammback in a heartbeat, but that Camaro needs alot of work. I agree if you were to put some gfx, a better nose, different hood, and better wider tires, and paint the whole thing black. Black out everything. And have it raked, it would look good...minus the mudflaps...

Re: Is This For REAL?!?!?

HOLD UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok we need to go back to our roots. My freinds how can we even call this mutated, misfortunate, and diformed thing a camaro. Its like if cars were a live a station wagon got raped by a camaro and thats its offspring. That car needs to be put out of its missery how can some one do that. Its like being born with no genital or limbs. Crush the poor thing get it over with, and the guy who did this needs to be shot hung. He has issue sick camaro hacking issues. For all you guys who were like it looks nice did you here your self its a station wagon!!!! for christ sakes man a WAGON . THere is no wa to take the wagon part out other can cut it up.I would be embaressed to even take that car to the crusher how do you exsplain that now that the camaro name has been shamed enough we should all forget this horrific deflowerization of what probably was a nice 3rdgen.
now i hope my diffrent symbols exspress the stupidity of this entire situation.

If you think about buying it just think of this answering to your buddies or even worse your kids when the ask "why do all the other fathers have real camaros" "what did mom get out a torch and blend the 2 to make you happy" folks for real its like martha steward went carzy with lorana bobit and decided to work together and strip all the camros ***** and the redocorate with something familly like or more conventinal to carry martha's crap around. ok im done im grately apualed 6:20am and I havent even had my coffie yet.....I'm sick sick I tell you usualy I wake up and enjoy looking at this site and new posts but this has taken my day in a bad direction.

This is a perfect example of why kids under 10 yrs old, shouldn't be allowed on the internet.
