New Yenko Nova! ???

[Venom]

Ok, seriously.. Is this rendering super awesome, or super ugly? 

 

And here’s the video that hypes it up...

Meh, doesn’t look as good as the late 60’s generation and the grill looks like it’s based on the late 70’s car instead.

[deuces wild]

No thanks!.....?

[Plowboy]

Super ugly. 

[Painted Black]

It could be made to work, with a lot of changes, the first would be the different wheel arches then make the upper and lower grilles match better, etc,etc.

[Snake45]

Ugly. But still better looking than about 2/3 of the cars on the road today. 

[TarheelRick]

That rear-end reminds me of some I have seen walking through WalMart. Just hoping that is a photo distortion,

[cobraman]

Pass

[espo]

While it is different it is not an improvement to my eye. The more upright windshield is an attempt to make a misshaped Camaro look like a Nova.

X2!  Much more needs to be done to get it closer to the '68-'72 to get my money!

[Can-Con]

I like it. The only change I'd make is to make the front wheel opening match the rear one.

If someone on here posted a pic of a new Camaro model modified to look like that I bet everyone would be telling them how great it looks and that they're a genius. ?

[BlackSheep214]

Meh... stance is too low, looks like it's to imitate a Mustang up front, not too crazy on the lines on the body style. I can deal with the tail light choice.

It looks as if they're combining the '69 - '70 Nova to a Mustang look.

Today's auto designers have zero imagination in the design department. So.... a hard pass for me.

People forget Nova means No go in Spanish. Lolol!

[stitchdup]

Looks like george barris cut up a new challenger

[Venom]

Looks like I’m in mostly good company...

That's not true at all.

Google translate says it means "not going." Close enough?

No. [nova] in Spanish means a type of star, same as in English.  Not the same as "no va".

It would be the same as using the name "Notable" on a kitchen set and people not buying it because they thought it didn't have a table with it. "no table"

It's just bad grammar and an old wives tale.

It’s an ugly pshop of OZ XB Falcon GT made from Challenger or something  

XB was Mad Max car if unfamiliar  

 

[Plowboy]

I'd rather have this Nova.

Not the same. You don't see spaces with the spoken word. No table and notable are pronounced different, while no va and nova sound the same.

Seeing the real one and the “new” rendering next to each other really shows how styling cues have gone from class to trash...

[deuces wild]

It's enough to make Don Yenko roll over in his grave... May he still rest in peace....?

Right! How did they miss the pointed hood, bumper and headlight eyebrows, the key features of the Nova?.
