Here comes all the negative nancy folks that can't get over the fact that they changed the look of the car.

That said - I'm almost 100% positive I saw this very car the other morning on my way to work. Stupidly, at the time, I didn't think anything of it aside from "Oh hey look it's a 2014." Love the new look, love the front, love the rear, it's going to do well.



edit: I love how 3 of the photos are of the driver flicking off the photographer... I understand they don't want to be photographed, but c'mon... keep it a little classy, eh?

I don't mind that they changed the look of the car - I mind how they changed the look of the car

The front and rear of the 2014 would stop me from buying a camaro, really. I love them and they have been my dream car growing up but they just totally ruined it with the front and rear, from the side it is still awesome. I'm just glad I have a 2011 and I'm sure once people start moding them the 2014 will look much better

I don't see why he's pissed that his picture is getting taken. They get paid to drive these cars around town, not on a closed course. Just looks like some jerk that doesn't appreciate his job.

Soooo glad they made the redesign so ugly. Keeps me in mine for a few more years at least.

They could have done better. Looks bland to me. Maybe a different color will help.

They didn't ruin the car. By complete opposite, they made the rear taillights finally look like a Camaro. These 2014 taillights have more Camaro heritage to them than the 2010-2013 taillights do. Only other time we had quad circle taillights was 1970-1973 (love the coincidence in years), otherwise every taillight since 1974 has been trapezoid shaped that wrap around.

Is it any surprise that a bunch of people who already own a 2010-2013 Camaro are going to feel so strongly about the design they bought and not like a redesign? Of course not. Ask 1993-1997 Camaro owners what they think of the 1998-2002 Camaro - you'll hear comments like "Chrysler Concorde" and "Catfish."

That said - this new design is going to breathe new life into the car. The 2010-2013 Camaro (I own a 2012) is old and dated. We've had this design since 2006 now, it's time for something new. The mid-cycle refresh will tide us over until the 6th gen comes out. But I do have to say - this redesign looks VERY sharp in person.

Fugly and thats the only reason I'm not picking up the Z28. And yes I've seen them in person. And for people that "are getting use to it" I say you can get use to anything after time, but if that's the case you never really liked it in the first place. Epic fail Chevrolet! I just hope this is not a sign of the next gens direction.....//
