Also, I want to welcome any new members that are making their first posts in this thread.

I said thanks because your post was the first one I had seen with the in it.

What I mean is, the Auto Zone lights indicate that the turn signal has been moved to the inside of the lamp.

And does anyone else get almost a Delorean vibe from the camo on the C-pillar? Makes me wanna see what Doc Brown could do to the camaro.



Oh, and I am so diggin those rims and brakes. After enduring the 15 inchers and drum brakes on my Cherokee for so long, I can't wait to have 20's with disc brakes.

Hmm, I think it could go both ways with the lights. Maybe they put generic lights into the production location, or they put the generic lights just wherever they happened to fit. I think they could pull off either look rather well with a nice set of production quality lights.

I can kinda see what you mean about the C-pillar, but I much prefer the Transformers treatment the Camaro got to the Back to the Future time machine treatment the Delorean got.

Lol, agreed. I was just making a joke about the Delorean. IMO, the shoulders of the Camaro are perfect, and the C-pillar is a large part of that. It makes the car look like a panther in the black paint. You know, I'd love to have a black paint job with a touch of dark metalic blue which shows off in the edges and curves.

You arent the only one, esp. after seeing this angle of the car. Those lights look down right evil to me. I really like them, even tho the chances of them staying are nearly nonexistent...

[Angrybird 12]

Just a thought... Maybe there will be TWO headlight treatments, like the Second gen RS... maybe we ARE looking at the RS option.. those lights look like they are in a fairly finished condition.. otherwise they would just look like they were just temporary.

[QUOTE=TAG UR IT;46777]INCREADIBLE!!!

It does appear, however, that the camo bra on the hood is tucked under the front of the hood in between the opening (between the hood and front facia) which makes it appear as though the vent is closed. I think it's open.


Gotta agree with tag on this one!! I think the scoop is open and the bra is tucked in behind it. Look to the far right side of the scoop and you can see it is a little darker than the other part. Awesome car!!!

damit guys stop bringing the headlights back into every new pic thread. seriously its starting to get really annoying. it has been said MANY of times even from the big boss apple sauce himself "there from autozone(or napa autoparts lol)"
but in all seriousness(sp?lol) nobody is really going to see the headlights when driven the camaro all there gona see is the tail lights which imo look asom.

[stovt001]

Looking at this, I also noticed that it looks like a front license plate will look OK on the front bumper. Did anyone else notice this/agree?

I have to respecfully disagree with you on that one.

Yes, I think a font plate could fit decently without looking like crap...but that doesn't mean ANY front plate will ever look good on the front of this one to me.......

This car should be legally exempt from ALL state mandated front plates due to it's beauty factor.

[munkee drummer]

Hey if you look at the headlights you can see between the light and the turn signal that it looks like the whole section of both headlights could be taken out. Besides Fbodfather said so! Many times!!

I knew someone would get upset.. .. Maybe the "BIG BOSS" is trying to divert some of the attention from possible options later on. Like an RS version. (Some people actually LIKE those lights...)

Those headlight enclosures DO look like they are in a finished state not something just tacked on. why go to the trouble so spending the money to tool up a mold for headlight surrounds if you were't at least considering using them??

Anyways, The car is still over a year away, so small details can change between now and then. Be open to possibilities and don't shun them away..

P.S. why didn't you cuss about someone mentioning the gas filler door again????

I will disagree with that, on closer inspection i think if it was just indented they would have some sort of mesh in there to make it look good, but it does look like to me that it is the same shade of black as the hood bra and not the car it's self, If it was being back recessed like that it would be much darker. Plus you can just about make out a couple wrinkles in it...

[acscamarochick06]

So, what is the point in the 3 lights on each side? *NOTE* These lights are TEMPORARY... Temp-o-rar-y!!! [see any post by fbodfather, i.e. DragonEye's signature]
