I've done a quick bit of modification to a 8448 image filling in the panels
and such, see it at http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=1474 .
The fourth generation Camaro does look a lot like the Super Street 8448, but
I think the Ferrari 550 Maranello fits it better. The 550 has a
twelve cylinder and the Camaro has rear seats (tiny as they may be) so neither
is a perfect match. I think Lego should have given the 8448 a V-12 anyway.
But then again, this could just be my dislike for Camaros.

| Here is a picture of the Ferrari posed in the same position as the 8448 picture. Almost perfect. The tail is a little closer to the Camaro's spoiler, but I'll admit defeat. (...) mag (...) (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)
