The tail lights have me hoping more than ever that my 2013 order gets picked up quick!

Those aren't even new wheels. They're the same wheels that come on the Dusk Camaro and are available as an LPO or accessory option. I'm betting that those are not going to be the standard wheel on the Camaro. Expect to pay $4k more for those when you order them.

At least the Mustang looks aggressive. This new "Camaro" looks like a simpleton.

I bet the standard SS rims won't change from '13 to '14. Maybe the polished will come off of constraint.

No kidding! You will probably see some used rims going cheap when the tread is almost gone.

2010-13 looks better. This refreashed Camaro is not agressive enough, sorry. I'll hold on to my 2013 til 2016. Boom my 13' 1LE was the best move ever!

I'll wait till NY auto show for the final call, but for now, its FUGLY

Watched the video slowly...yuck!!! It's all smoothed out and wimpy. No hard edges. It's the female gender of the Camaro.

Kinda scary to think what the 6th gen might end up looking like.

I hope the 6th gen doesn't have the Malibu "ish" front end....then I would worry.

I like the front ok. The back is different. I could get used to it. I have owned (2) 5 gen so far, and I never liked the rear of the car since it was a concept. In time this will be ok too.

Not a fan of that hood vent. Ugh. It's not all bad just no coordination in the styling.

This car is just 'meh'. I like that they realized the hood needed vents but even those are 'meh'.

I'll keep moving forward with my Hex Vent install this weekend

So, after all these Camaro models, I'd have to say that the 2013 1LE was the pinnacle of this gen.

The funny thing is that as much as we are complaining now about the 2014 refresh, it probably pales in comparison to all the complaints that will probably come should the 2016 6th gen Camaro move away from "retro" and more toward the current Chevrolet triple-bar big-mouth grill and quad-headlamp fascia.
