Let’s face it, the original Chevrolet Camaro is probably rolling over in shame when hearing about the dismal sales of its sixth-generation successor. So, it’s probably best to leave the modern interpretation alone and focus on interesting new ways of bringing the classic pony car back to life.
For example, one could blend the very popular slammed widebody stance with a full carbon fiber build, NASCAR-like motorsport traits, aero pieces inspired by an Italian supercar, and sprinkle in the middle the very successful LT2 motor used inside the C8 Chevrolet Corvette.
That’s exactly what happened with pixel master Karan Adivi (a.k.a. karanadivi on social media), who seemingly decided to return for a digital blast of his Karrbon Series 03 of virtual reality concepts. And what we have here is a very classic and very tempting 1969 Chevrolet Camaro created as a sibling concept for one of the older projects of this digital artist.
That one is equally mesmerizing as it features a Ford Mustang Boss 302 powered by a Ferrari engine. It seems this artist loves to blend the genres as much as possible, considering the bagged and widebody atmosphere, clear racing inspiration, the aero treatment, and the mid-engine C8 Corvette swap.
According to the description, the ‘69 Camaro might become almost unrecognizable as the virtual artist desires to “add as much aero” to the carbon fiber body as possible, hence the pun-intended “CAMAERO Concept” nickname. And by that, he means an overload of aerodynamic elements, though the one you’ll always ogle at comes as up front as possible in the form of a huge inlet apparently inspired by the cool Ferrari 488 Pista.
The racing connections are quite obvious, but we also love the way you don’t realize it’s a mid-engine car until you take a look down the back window. The restomod vibe is also present, thanks to the reworked (probably LED) taillights that, along with the round headlights, are probably the most obvious hints we’re dealing with a modern take on the original Camaro.
