I am definitely not a fan of the 2014 "new look". The new front design does not match the hulky back.

there is no buyers remorse with a ZL1. Its comes down to more of personal préférences. look at the redesign of the mustang 2013 vs 2012, camaro 1970 1/2 and 1971, (the split bumber). A good redesign was the camaro 1997 and 1998. Opinion may vary.

Not a fan. Grill is too narrow and the lights look like a Mustang knockoff.

I am sure it will be fine. GM has Evolved quite well on design. the whole drama behind the 27 march date means that GM is happy with the results.

No it's not even close the SS sedan has already been shown back in February.

I would venture to say if they change the upper grille; the lower will see some changes as well. I'm confident that it will look better than the renderings. Look at what GM has done thus far with the 5th gen, and the 7th gen Corvette. I don't believe GM will start going backwards on their styling decisions now.

Like any F-Body, assuming this will just be a bumper cover swap....no way. I think a more sleek looking and aggressive front like rendered will rock.

Look at the 09-10 Mustang. Same exact approach. I'm eager to see the real package. Chevy always does a nose refresh. 68 to 69, 73 to 74, 77-78 Camaro, Third gens look mostly the same but you can tell the slow change, and the 97-98 4th gens.

I'll wait to pass judgement till I see it, then judging will be on like a Presidential Debate.

Let's hope the renderings are all wrong, I think this is a step backward. I don't like the fact the grille is looking more like a Malibu and the chrome strip on top looks out of place. They need to keep the Camaro distinctive and realize it is hard to improve on such a classic style.

I kinda like the way the ZL1 looks,but not the SS, the front of the ZL1 looks like the tail lights of the new stingray,which i would assume the tail lights would look like the headlights as far as rendition of the ZL1.,but who knows what its gonna look like,...but my screen saver on my computer at work is the new stingray,which i have had for a year,so whoever guessed at what the new vette would look like a year before reveal,was just about dead on,just a couple small differences,
