Here's the issue: I actually LIKE the new 14, but I'm scared I'm going to regret it because in the future, I'm assuming the 10-13 will be considered the 'classic' Camaro. I love both models, I just don't want to make a mistake. SOMEBODY F$@#KIN HELP ME!
well something to keep n mind the 2013 was only a 1 year model car thats the only year the 1le was avaliable before the refresh so it will be a rarer car in the future imo

Yes, but there is one thing that hasn't been confirmed yet (to my knowledge) that could be a potential major improvement to the 2014. The 2013 has one glaring flaw that seems to have irritated most owners: Hill Start Assist that cannot be disabled. Hopefully, the 2014 models will have a way to disable this "feature" for those who do not want, and definitely do not need it.

So which body panel (besides the rear) changed in order to accommodate the wrap around?

GET THE 2014! Nuff said. Youll have that extra sense of it being special because of the differences between you and other 2010-2013 Camaros.

As far as this generation of Camaros being considered classics only time will tell. I used to think the early 80's Z28s were laughable, look who's laughing know.

And, of course, that's all that matters. I wouldn't trade in my '13 for a '14, but if I was in the market of buying a new Camaro outright I would not hesitate to get a '14.

Why don't you go take a look at your 2010 SS and get back to us. The quarters didn't change.

Correct. It is said to be all aluminum and will work with the 2010-2013 rear fascia. Check with your dealership to be sure.

Ahh I see now. My mistake. However, if I recall correctly there are two big red tabs that hold in the 10-13 bumpers in place of where the top portion of the taillight meets the quarter panel on the 14's. With this in mind, are you sure the bumpers can simply be swapped?
