Now that Indy's past and we've had a massive influx of shots from SEMA, how do you guys feel about the SS fascia?

TJ91 · 11-09-2008, 09:59 PM

SS facia is nice, looks meaner, but the 6 has a nice side profile, and front profile, well all angles, id say the SS has its good and bad angles, but both look good

I like it. It gives a more agressive look.

A few mousestang owners that I know have already asked me if there is any distinguishing marks, other than the badging, to tell whether the Camaro is packing 400+ HP.

I told them that if you can get a peek at the grill and it has a slot in the front above the grill, just bow down graciously and don't waste your gas because you will only get a brief view of tail lights and a whiff of his exhaust.

I liked it before, I still like it now.

Should tell them 'not from behind'

Loved it before, loved it now

I don't think most of us would be here if we didn't love the camaro from day 1. However for such camaro lovers we sure do complain a lot for a car that has not even been released yet.

*The_Blur* · 11-10-2008, 10:20 AM

I was always a fan. It looks aggressive and distinguishable from the V6.

are you talking about the hood scoop?

2010_5thgen · 11-10-2008, 05:20 PM

i never liked it at first and after seeing them, they have grown on me.

blackZbandit · 11-10-2008, 07:54 PM

When it was first introduced I liked it even though it looked funny to me... but since I've gotten used to it the only negative I can think of is that the lower grill doesn't match, but to me that's still cool because it lends to the "utilitarian built for power" look.

I wasn't completely sold on it, just accepted it for what it was. Now, I really, really like it! Need to find a way to get the upper and lower grill to match or at least look similar to one another.
