"Youthful buyers want a car that makes a statement in its design as much as its performance," said Brian Smith, exterior designer. "The new Camaro concepts bridge heritage with contemporary style, with a design that is simultaneously admired among import-influenced youth and traditional enthusiasts."

Along with style and performance, the timeless spirit of fun is woven into the new Camaro concepts.

"Camaro has always represented the American ethic that style and performance don't belong exclusively to the wealthy," said Smith. "Camaro has always been everybody's sports car, and these new concepts demonstrate its spirit is relevant for a new generation."
