Get the Mullets! The 2010 Camaro is Here!

BAM! The pics of the 2010 production RS Camaro reveal were picked up early by our friends at CarTribe, and are about to break the internet.

We’ve seen the concept at the NAIAS, and the mules on the road.  Now, we get to see this beauty all fluffed up and purrrrty!  Strictly focusing on the styling, this car is excellently designed.  From the aggressive retro design, to the tight lines, to the graceful tapering of forms, this design is memorable and instantly iconic.  The individual groups of dual tail lamps are done well, although it would have been nice to space them apart a little more.  The front end follows the trend of modern muscle cars to have the wide horizontal break-up with inset head lamps.

The only real issue I see here is thecrazy section of the side where the surfaces door, windows, and body all come together in an awkward corner.  It creates a slightly forced cut line there.

The interior is all Camaro, placing (sometimes needless) gauges everywhere.  The dual guages in the IP are a nice design touch.  The seats are exciting and fresh.

Overall, I have a hard time disliking this vehicle.  This is the peak of modern muscle car design, and will remain a great design for years after.

Full pics after the break.

Sweet car, too bad it debuts in the usual horrible GM press photos. Where is the excitement. Shoot, we waited like 10 years for this day.
