Hell man I wouldn't go past the 12's. That hill assist in the 13's seems like communism to me. That refresh in the 14 is alright, I have my 11 though and I'm set. If I was back in the market I'd find an 11 or 12 stick shift a dealership can't move and make off with an SS at a nice price.

However you guys want people on topic so if I had to choose, I mean if I really had to, between a 13 or 14 I'd go with the Challenger.

It's probably the same deal with the rear diffuser being wrapped. Early preproduction model not using the actual parts that will be sold. Notice it doesn't have the ZL1 badging either.

shoot to tell you the truth.. i didn't want anything pass 2011... i didn't want the 12 because of the headers and the leather on the dash.. also the steering wheel.. it wasn't unique like the 2010-2011.
and i was pretty luck to get a 2011 2SS/RS brand new with 108 miles on them last year in June!

What about the 12's and the headers? You mean the LFX and that you can't get headers for the V6? The leather on the dash is fine with me and the steering wheel isn't a problem either. But back to the topic i'd get a 13' but wouldn't want the Hill Assist. The 14's are butt ugly.

10-13 design looks more fierce and meaner.
14+ design looks more luxurious and geared toward a soccer mom. Yes, she literally said soccer mom.

She thought the 10-13 design looked more aerodynamic, which we know is not true as GM has advertised the 14+ style to be more aerodynamic.

She commented that the 14+ taillights were like any other car. She said she would have never thought about taillights if I haven't pointed them out, but she like the 10-13 design better. She said the 14+ taillights looked plain like a toyota camry.

Well I think you should tell this girl that she has fans on here which have been hating the 14s since day 1. Her opinion sounds exactly like the opinions of the haters on here and based on your assessment of your friend she isn't a car enthusiast ... I've been calling the haters pansies myself.

Anyways awesome pics still can't wait to see the 1LE in white cuz it's gonna look sick. As far as people mentioning that the pictures show too much grey on the diffuser take another look at the side by side comparison. Look at the tires ... The 13 camaro has black tires and the 14 1LE has grey tires ... Bad picture cuz the tires I buy are black.

I'm very excited for the 141LE non RS. Call me stupid but i like most people will get my SS to look as close to the Z/28 as possible for 30k less. Z/28 not practical enough for me but this new 141LE is sexy!

The new front end looks better in a lighter color than dark. Still, a couple simple tweaks would go a long way.

because you don't mess with perfection... cheers

this new design will give chevrolet a wake up call...they have ruined the camaro look...they should have done their home work first and asked camaro users...lots of sales are going to be loss and everyone's going to be rushing out to get a 2013 or earlier now.... but maybe thats their plan, who knows....
cheers

While I'm not crazy about the changes as I mentioned before other than theZ/28 which looks good from the front, I still think sales will be fine.
