These 6th-Gen Chevy Camaro Sketches Are Awesome

A little birdie (that shall rename nameless) sent us these sketches just a few hours ago. They’re the result of the 2012 Interactive Design Competition held this summer, with many of the submissions being from students of the College of Creative Studies; as such, they don’t necessarily indicate the direction General Motors will take with the next (sixth) generation Camaro, which is due in 2015, will ride on GM’s new Alpha RWD architecture shared with the Cadillac ATS, and feature smaller proportions.
As you can see, the drawings range from modern interpretations of the third-gen Camaro to something entirely new and sleek, with one of the sketches being for the top-of-the-line ZL1 model. Interestingly, one of the slides contains an overview of future Camaro owners:
“The next generation of Camaro Owners are defined by their appreciation for the technical… the distinctly tough American muscularity and image that comes with it.”
The description is followed by the text: “A storied Past, Yet Thoroughly Modern” narratives, accompanied by “The Camaro DNA is characterized by a few features that give its distinct”.
The features the description seems to be referring to include a cab-backward layout, sharp lines, and a distinct three-box shape.
Which of these is your favorite? Sound off in the comments below!

I drove a 1967 Rally Sport, but I don’t like any of these drawings. The front looks too much like a serpent (another Viper?).
Looks like a CCS fantasy car. Screams “IROC!!!”
6th-Gen Chevy Camaro Sketches car images is very nice awesome blog.
Please do not put a 4th GEN nose on it or something that suggests a Pontiac SUNBIRD. My 5th Gen has a very unique design style and stands out from anything on the road. These sketches suggest a very strong merge back into the GM corporate blender. Don’t Do It
I absolutly love the 3rd gen camaro revamp concept art for the 6 the gen I hope that’s where they go with it
Honestly not a fan of any.. The first one def not the ugliest gen of camaros (iroc z28) you gotta be kidding, id go more retro or just keep going aerodynamic like the mustang new front end , tighter thinner lights , lower overall body height , quad center exhaust is be more entertained, A for effort though for being enthusiasts
WHEN is GM going to let us in on the design of the 6th Gen Camaro!!!
If those first two pics are the direction GM is headed, I can’t wait. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fifth gen pre-refresh, but just can’t get used to the danged Honda taillights of the new version.
None of these have the muscle and grace of the current car which brought back so many featured favorites of the beloved 69 Camaro.
These sketches appear worse than ones i remember in design school by first year students.
They harken back to the 90s Camaro which was never a classic except in Z28 and IROC form. They also pay homage to the last Gen Corvette.
Neither are as pure a muscle car as the current generation or the 69.
Please go back to the drawing board with new designers.
