The Camaro, has the lines of the best looking Camaro of them all _ the 1969 version _ plus splashes of the Corvette and the Raptor fighter plane. It looks modern overall yet unmistakably retro in its lines.The Challenger on the other hand looks every bit retro and who can blame the designers when an original 1970 sample was brought into their design studio for inspiration _ that's more like carbon-tracing. It does have one very modern component: the black stripes on the bonnet aren't paint but exposed carbon material of the bonnet.
I'm sorry but the new Camaro looks like they tried to make it an exotic to me. That ain't the path that it should be goin down.
