Even after seeing it in person, it's not growing on me much. Still don't like the rear at all, but the front is ok. I might be biased since my first Camaro is a 5th, but I do like them more.

Other than the tail lights to me its no drastic change, although you can see the changes, but the average person probably wouldn't even notice. To me its not worse or better just different and I can live with it.

that 2014 rear license plate area looks boxy, and weird compared to a 2013. . .

I've seen them in person, and I still stand by my first impressions.

The Non-RS looks better to me (front and rear) than the RS version. Front end looks good from some angles and just plain awkward from others. I just don't care for the rear end and so overall I prefer my 2010 style.

That said, I'd still buy one. Also, I do feel the 2014 1LE models look the best by far...very mean!!

First time I saw the 2014 rear end, it reminded me of a 1990 Honda Accord. And that's a Z28 so not quite as plain jane as a normal 2014.

Today, it still reminds me of a 1990 Honda Accord. Way to go GM.

Went and looked at a '14 again while having my oil changed this afternoon.

Pretty much hooked on the new look.

Pretty much locked on Ashen Grey

And the 6 speed

I'm not gonna be one to knock the look of the 2014 Camaro because I have a 2013 ZL1. I like the tail-lights.

When I was looking at the 2014s I expressed my dislike with the tail lights. The saleman said you like the classic look then offered to do a search on a 2013. anyone heard of the 2010-2013 referred to as "classic"?

That's because the Retro look. The 60's camaro had them there too.

14 taillights looks old and lack style to me . Those style lights been on cars since the 80's . But nothing against the 14s they're still 5th gens camaros. I like the 1LE and the Z/28

Thoughts on the 2014 now they are out

These tail lights look something like what the 2014 needs. Everything else about the 2014s kick ass. It took me 3 times to the dealer for the new to grow on me. I think the color DIC and HUD messed me up. Now I get in my car and it reminds me of when PCs went from monochrome to color. The front end grows on you too and when I look at my car the front looks old, big and fat. my 2cents
