Given the opportunity what would your dream Camaro turn out like? Mines pretty much on track to be exactly as I want it to be with plenty of power, handling to match & timeless looks. What would you do to yours if you were able to? Cheers.........Nige

I want only straight line thrust, nothing else. I wouldn't race my Camaro on a track. I think they're a bit big and heavy for high speed cornering unless you spend BIG money on suspension, handling and brake mods so racing Porsches off the line and leaving them in my tracks on the outside lane of the autobahn is what turns me on.

I too love Classic looks and crushing supercars and bikes off the line but there's nothing better than the looks on peoples faces when you brake later than them and whip round that tight bend.
Lower it, medium springs, stiff anti-roll bars, 17/18 inch wheels, track day tyres, big brakes, adjustable shocks and then
you can surprise yourself with pin sharp handling.
