The two lines on the hood, either side of the bulge, that are on the bias. Yes, he missed those.


But the back end seems 90-95% correct.





He got the chamfer correct under the leading edge of the trunk lid. His trunk leading edge is flatter while the production one is humped. His 3rd brake light placement is a little off but no big deal there.
I would say the only thing he missed was the vertical crease running thru the trunk lid (under the bow tie) and the subtle bustle-back.

im really not a fan of the third brake light. I was hoping that was a stick on thing on the test cars that have been running around. not liking where it is on the actual car.

the current one is aluminum so I would assume they would just continue that trend.

The brake lights appear to be similar to C7.

SHOCKED no one even posted the latest and last teaser pics nor anything about it?




DETROIT, MI - The completely restyled, sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro is set to be unveiled Saturday, May 16 on Detroit's Belle Isle, the scene of the Chevrolet Belle Isle Grand Prix just days later.

The sixth-generation Camaro will be built at General Motors' Grand River Plant in Lansing, where the Detroit automaker also produces the Cadillac ATS and CTS models.

In November, GM temporarily laid off 350 hourly workers at the Lansing plant.

The second shift is expected to return when GM shifts production of the new Camaro from a Canadian site to the Lansing Grand River plant. The Lansing site employs about 1,400 hourly workers and 188 salaried employees.

The festivities on May 16 include a "Camaro Museum" display of the most significant vehicles in Chevrolet's 104-year history, as well as hot-lap rides in the 2015 Camaro Z/28 around the Belle Isle Grand Prix racetrack.

There will also be meet-and-greet opportunities with designers and engineers, and Camaro-only parking for owners of the muscle car.

Spacing was limited for the May 16 event, which was declared full just hours after opening up a first-come, first-serve reservation list that gave priority to Camaro owners. But we'll be sure to share photos and video of the day with readers.

Chevrolet has been releasing a series of teasers about the forthcoming Camaro over the past several weeks. It released a silhouette Monday that gives us the clearest look yet at what kind of shape the pony car will take.

The General Motors brand said Monday it has fine-tuned the aerodynamics of the six-gen Camaro after 350 hours of wind tunnel testing. That included, in part, altering the front grille to have a sharper pitch toward the horizon and extending a flush belly pan from the grille to the center of the car.

"The importance of aerodynamics increases exponentially as we increase vehicle performance," Kirk Bennion, Exterior Design manager, said in a release. "As engine output increases, we need more engine cooling. As acceleration and top speeds climb, we need to reduce lift for better high-speed stability. However, we cannot make any changes at the expense of increasing drag, which can hurt fuel economy.

"To balance these different aerodynamic targets, we tested literally hundreds of changes on the new Camaro, millimeters at a time."

They made a new thread when this was the original?

Anyways if you brighten up the grill pic, you can see either LED's on the side or some type of protrusion on either side.
