Re: would you agree with chevy to make a 2005 chevelle
For the record,the new chevelle wouldnt be a FWD,it would be RWD like the new 400HP GTO is.It would also come with 4 wheel disk brakes as a standard,a 6 speed standard optional,and hopefully red and black leather bucket seats like the GTO i test drove.In comparison to other new production cars,it may be equivalent in superiority,just like the old chevelles were compared to other cars of the same time period.it could very well be a modern representation of what you guys own.Would you guys like them to kill the name,or continue it,as a superior quality street machine.Most people my age dont know what a chevelle is about,nor care,but if they new sombody with a new chevelle,and it kicked major ass,it may give you guys more respect from a younger crowd

Re: would you agree with chevy to make a 2005 chevelle
Chevy needs to focus on a full frame,RWD car with a 400 in it.not only that but they need to get away from the plastic parts,and the high cost.Put some Hand crank windows,and get rid of all the features that add extra cost and weight.Make it back into a true muscle car,and not some half breed luxury sport.

Re: would you agree with chevy to make a 2005 chevelle
Sorry if i offend you guys but i drive a truck with electric windows and i would be very annoyed to buy anything, new, with crank style windows. would you guys also like a 2 channel radio with and 8 track player? I mean come on you can keep costs low w/o gettin rid of things like a cd player and power windows. if i can push a button and have my window down in 2 seconds while not even loosing focus, why in the world would you wanna sit there and crank on a handle while ur tryin to drive?

Re: would you agree with chevy to make a 2005 chevelle
I say no, because im afraid they would come out with something that looked like the new GTO and the look of the old should stay that way.

Your younger crowd may not know what a chevelle is or stands for, nor respect it, but it you ever get the chance to line up with a '70 Chevelle SS with 454... after it spanks your ass, you'll know all you need to. |

Re: would you agree with chevy to make a 2005 chevelle
hell yeah i helped build my boss's 70'ss 454 Chevelle cloner,from the ground up.Its so fast its stupid...
i hate electric windows.to each his own thats what i say.Electric windows break and add weight too.Give me a nice old fashoned chrome hand crank for my window.I hate airbags,ABS brakes,and idiot lights too.I cover those stupid idiot lights with black tape,and digital dashes suck too IMO.Remember the days when you knew the leadlights was off,cause you couldnt see the dash?Not with a digital dash. Its all useless junk,made for whimps who need a light to tell them when the windshield washer fluid need replaced...ugh,sry. this is what my car says"chigga chigga chiggavroooom thump thudda thump thump thudda thump " here is what a new car says "click,"ding ding ding""bzzzzz"click"ding ding ding*chigga chigga Vroommmmmmmmmmmmmmm*ding ding ding*vrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*buzz*"ding ding ding" As for the younger crowd commentary,some of us *younger crowdsmen* are building classic chevys to put food on the table,such as your 454 chevelles,and 67SS camaros ect.and very much know and enjoy sharing part of such a legacy and heritage.And i even think some of these newer recycled milk jug/beer can cars are shaping up to be. |

Re: would you agree with chevy to make a 2005 chevelle
I'd say........ "Gidderdone!"
But Chevy wont follow through without overpricing it threw the roof! Why can't the look at ford with the new Mudstain? Priced from resonable to skys the limit for options....... |

There is a 2004 Chevelle known as the HRSS 454. I believe they are built by Imagine Motorsports out of the Northwestern U.S. or Canada. It's an awesome car. Could use tweaks but everybody has that opinion about every car! That's why this hobby ROCKS! With the $35K price tag trying to purchase Chevelle rights would be astronomical.

Ahhh hotrod_chevyz,, a man after my own heart!
Who needs power windows, airbags, a/c, automatic tranmissions, thousand dollar stereos, etc.?! Give me a classic car with a 4 speed, no air conditioning, manual windows and a wild big block,, that I can work on myself! Id rather listen to a rumpity engine than a stereo anyhow! Sure all the stuff could be optional for those who feel they need it. Not me,, strip mine down please! |

Re: would you agree with chevy to make a 2005 chevelle
I agree they should produce it as long as it's V-8 rear wheel drive, and not some cookie cutter foriegn car look alike P.O.S. They'd better not disgrace the Chevelle name as they're done with others...Impala, Nova, SS(Cavilier??),Malibu. I'm sick of car companies using re-hashed B.S. to sell cars that are supposed to vaguely remind someone of a muscle car. Just my 2 cents, oh how about a car someone can afford, perhaps $25,000? Dumb down the technology and make it affordable. Later
