Then you go to the forums, and you see people constantly bashing the 2014's. Why would you want to join a forum full of a bunch of kids? A Camaro is a Camaro.


The complete lack of maturity here lately is pretty pathetic.

I would agree that the constant mention of how much some people hate the 2014's is a little bit off-putting. It really seems like some people have nothing better to do than post a negative comment in every thread related to the refresh.

I found the police report, the person driving it said "I got distracted looking at a 2010 Camaro taillights, they look sooooooooooooooo nice, and then BAM, a pole hit me" end of report.

So I think it would be in poor choice to delete comments just because they don't like a part of a design.
If I was doing as you say 95% of the posts would have been deleted. When it gets personal it's another story. Trust me when I say GM has gotten your message 100 times over.

So if you want to influence the 6th Gen we have a place for that. This model is on the streets just like all the other models that we don't allow bashing on. It's one thing to express your opinion in a respectful manner and another to just trash and bash.

More proof that our Camaro's can take a beating and you'll still walk away from it.

As to the smart remarks about the looks of the '14s... your(mine) opinion mattered the first time you stated them... let it go already.

For those who take offense by the smart remarks... do your best to ignore them.

Threw the words "you" and "your" around a lot. Do me a favor. Go back through this thread and take a look at which of my comments were negative about the '14.



Here's a suggestion. Why don't you guys make a different section where people can talk about the refresh and thendirect traffic that way.

I read mlee's post as him addressing the people that keep saying negative things about the 14's, in multiple threads.

Read it how you want, he quoted me




And there's a further more. If someone can find the post Scott made about the refresh bashing and repost it maybe that curb some of it. He talked about how hard the design team worked on it and we should appreciate that. I respect Scott a lot, so his words definitely changed my outward opinion on the subject.

Same goes for a few people claiming the 2014 is just so much more superior in design. As a 2013 owner it tends to piss me off, especially when I personally disagree. Its one of those things, you stay in your corner and I will stay in mine.

obviously, since he started off addressing "95%" of the posts, and you don't have 95% of your posts negatively talking about the 14's, then he's just replying to your quote in a general manner, and not calling you out. if you need him to say that, and not understand that, it's not his fault.
