I couldn't agree more, please GM don't give us those crappy SS taillights.

porkrind,

I just went out and looked. You are correct.

It would be funny if the first shipping '14 has it's owner arrive with a truck with '10-'13 rear and front ends all painted and ready to swap out for the cameras to see.

That black plastic needs some paint immediately.

I think those are the RS tail lights which really sucks. I want halos this time but not those LED pukers. It is the only thing I don't like.

Having taillights that wrap around AND keeping the rear side marker lights looks odd- like lighting overkill.

My thoughts...Z28 beats SS in the rear styling hands down. Seeing these together makes me really hate the new SS rear. The Z28 tail lights aren't half bad, but those SS tail lights are horrid! And that SS rear diffusor looks like an afterthought...kinda like it isn't finished...ugh!

Butt Ugly, period!:boxi ng:

The SS tail lights are, well, wow, ugly.

The Z28 lights are not good either and the wrap around part is making it worse.

It is a shame. So many other cars will be seeing that view.

CamaroSS27 is really sharing. Be kind.

both version are horrible.
why they made the opening so large, for the license plate that's absurd!
we don't have 4x8 license plate!!
i know it's for the euro.. but at least they could of make 2 styles..

Exactly, having the wrap around tails would be easy to put a single LED as a sidemarker and eliminate the one lower on the quarter. They got rid of the separate reverse light in the same manner.

I only hope Ford doesn't screw up the 50th 2015 mustang as bad as GM just screwed up the Camaro...even die heart chevy fan boys have to admit the rear of this new Camaro is horrid!

Exactly -

And another thought:

Wait 'til you meet them in person - you may have a different opinion.

(...just like I may have a different opinion of some people once I meet them versus what I thnk of them based on what they type!....
