I think the refresh will hurt sales, it's not attractive and it's a step backwards in that it looks soft and nice and not mean at all, which is not what the Camaro image needs. It's less aggressive looking, so much so that I'd half expect them to say they ditched the 6.2L in favor of the 5.3L, that bad.

Why is one of the LED "skillets" yellow, making a right turn?

Looks good but that's not a SS.

I'm not sure if it really is, or just a camera effect.

Led's and cameras don't get along sometimes.

It's the 1LE RS with the different front end.

Haven’t seen many of these yet.

Can't wait to see this hit the road. I'm a Camaro fan period and, I'm sure I'll love both the I4/V6 cars as much as the SS cars. To be honest, I remember seeing pics of the 6th gen and not being too impressed with them at first now, I love them.

This isn't a Camaro, its Chevy headed back into identity crisis mode again.
Here comes the late 90's 00's all over again.

The front i might be able to learn to live with, but i agree the taillights are just awful and are a deal breaker to me, they are just awful, it makes the rear look poor. But that picture of the RS LE above is also not doing it for me, I hate that front end so much. The front end looks so out of place on this car.

As someone mentioned a while back. The rear is completely destroyed. It is nowhere close to matching the rest of the car. The care for the most part has lines, edges, and angles. Then you have a rounded rear end. Makes no sense.

Not sure if it has been posted yet but there is a new color listed on the order screen called SHOCK. GKO order code, 628D paint code. My guess is that this is the spring color.

As you can see, it's a pale yellowish green. Not a fan.

Interesting, I think it looks less aggressive to me. To me it just follows the industry trend of blacked out pieces in the grill/fangs to make something that's not sporty look sporty.

And I still do not like the "Flow Tie" placement. If they really needed it for cooling purposes that tells me the design was flawed to begin with.
