Please don't put the gas tank filler on the wrong side of the car. I hate that.

I'd actually prefer the gas filler door on the right side. I'm always afraid I'm going to hit the door on the gas pump island with my Camaro, since the gas door is on the driver's side.

The doors are so damned long on my 3rd gen, that if I park far enough away, the gas hose won't reach.

Me too. That is one thing I have loved about my GTO! Plus there are always open spots in the direction I want because everyone else would have to turn around to get in! :roflmao:

Sorry to bring this thread back to life but I only just fond it. Quite a stange thing to see. It is shorter than the road car but it looks the same length as the Aussi V8Supercar, whick had to be made shorter to fit in with the rules of V8Supercars. This photo give you a good idea of what im on about...



As for the flares, I have no idea
