this debate has been exhausted already and it's as stupid as it ever was. Everyone with a 10-13 will say theirs is better and likewise for 14-15 owners.

As for the models, I doubt the refresh will be made because it is just that, a refresh. The market is much smaller now for gen 5 camaro models than it was when the car was new. Most video games feature the pre-refresh too, just out of laziness (Most model companies only do the first year of a new body style, hence why if you look closely, all models are the '2010' camaro), people already associating the pre-refresh with the camaro name, and the fact at the end of the day, the cars are so damned similar it becomes a moot point either way.

Your best bet is to look for a '14 Z28 model. That one just got put in the new Forza video game, taillights and all.

If you don't like the look of the 2014-2015 tail lights then get a faster car and you will not have to look at them.

LOL.... perfect!! That's why all of those 2010-2013 owners hate our tail lights!!! It's because they are sick of looking at them!!

I love the 2014/2015 rear lights. I have always loved the 60s Camaros and I like how they went back to the rectangle lights like they were instead of like the 70s. Though I like the Gen 2s as well. My first car was a 75. Ahh the memories, bonding with my dad working on that 350.

Anyway, even my buddy with a 2010 2SS mentioned that he likes my 2LTs rear better, saying it more aggressive looking. His is sick as well though. I like them both just fine, but one reason when I get a 2SS it will be a 2014 or 2015.

Not sold on the 2016 just yet. Will need to see them. I am sure it will grow on me, but not into the fastback look as much.

they ,the 16 will never have the wide rubber tracking capability either but it will be interesting to see track n#s to come, back on track +1 on a model ! Revel 2014,5 for the boys

Nope.. Maisto cancelled it.
It is no longer shown in their catalog.
(I would love to be proven wrong on this one)

Why not get a 3d printer and make a new rear end for the model? It seems like the perfect thing to have for the model car hobby. Mine only cost $500 its a divinci 1.0 and it can even make real car parts like this one:

I think the 2010-2013 are trying to look more corvette then camaro

Infamous? The '69 Camaro, a car that will live in infamy.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he was referring to the Emotional Quotient, aka; EI, Emotional Intelligence, which would be appropriate for some on this forum.
