IROC...the sequel?
http://blogs.wsj.com/drivers-seat/20...obref=obinsite
I love the idea, but (don't hate on me all at once), I am not in love with the 5th gen body. Maybe my view will soften, but I find it "cartoonish". Too thick, almost reminds me of a Chrysler 300.
That being said, the writer of the article is bashing us 3rd Gen lovers. I detect just a bit of tongue-in-cheek.
In keeping with Camaro tradition, it did take till 69 to really get the curves perfect
. So maybe a few more model years worth of tweaks could bring us a sleek and sexy IROC 5th Gen.
Let the flaming begin!
No one ever accused me of holding back my opinion.

Re: IROC...the sequel?
There was no bashing in that article. There were valid points. It was a icon of it's time and many would like to see a new one somehow. With the races gone, it's pretty much certain that it'll never happen again though.
