No close up of the tail lights?

I call those Elton John Camaros

I hope those don't make it to production. They remind me of the....

Who is complaining about the current taillights? GM, let's work on the rectifying the legitmate issues.

Hey good catch...and both are the sunglasses Camaros. This says to me that they have to be cars for foreign markets - satellite radio isn't available outside the US?

Does this make any sense? Why are they heat-testing these cars in the winter where temps are 72F? ANd if not heat-testing, why death valley? Maybe just passing through.

cool, still not digging the 'bulkiness' of the vertible top(when up)

..seeing it person might change my mind..

Boba Vette · 02-07-2011, 11:33 AM

You guys crack me up.

Chrome and old school lights are what keep American behind and looking nice and old, no matter how new and cool the car is.

Even Kia's and Hyundai's have better looking lights than our own Camaros.

But I guess I'm an anomaly. A muscle car lover from way back (I've owned a 68, 85, 94, 99 and 10), who also loves progression, technology and the crispness of new.

Now I'm not saying those taillights are perfect, but all I hear around here is hate for anything that didn't roll off of GM's assembly line.

The yellow Camaro with the new (ugly) taillights is wearing the same license plate we saw on the one in Germany in this topic.

True ive seen pics of concept models i guess you would say that have simiar taillights

I kinda like the tail lights now, they have grown on me. I like that they are LED. It definitely looks better without the reverse lights on the bumper.

paulsandhu · 02-07-2011, 12:04 PM

I must be blind... I don't see the change?

wise · 02-07-2011, 12:09 PM

The yellow cars with the other tail-lights also have larger mirrors, and reflectors in the lower rear valence, just above the exhaust ports. Probably revisions for the foreign market.

The tail-lights look okay to me. I do like that the reverse lights are incorporated into the design and deleted from the bumper.
