Ok, I'm a Mustang guy, but I'll admit to a softspot for the 60s and 70's Trans Ams.
Now you can buy a new one! Yeah, I know it's a re-skinned Camaro, but to my eye, it looks a lot better.

Check out the video -- they definitely aren't taking themselves too seriously.

Yeah, the T-Top is back!!!!
I still say the New Z would look great with a T-top!!

+1 on that! But I did catch just enough of a glimpse of the rear at 1:50 into the video, and again a few seconds after that, to at least see that they did a treatment back there that is a definite improvement on the completely ugly butt/tails on the Camaro. I think GM could definitely take some styling advice from these guys. This looks sooooooo much better than the Camaro!

Betting it's still a heavier car than the stang. Just like the Camaro is heavy.

Oh, Yeah! Wouldn't buy one - just saying it's much better looking than the current Camaro.

UGH! Ed, they left the ugliest part of the Camaro in place - the tails! Can't like it!

Some things are better left in the past. This car is one of them. It looks terrible.

Tails aren't great. But anything's an improvement on the Camaro back end.
