It should look far away if it is done right. The light from the HUD projection is collimated (made parallel) so it appears as if from some far away light source. This serves 2 purposes:

1. The...

+1

Always liked the V6 front better. It looks much more in line with the rest of the car. The 'cheeks', fogs and lower grille on the V8 front look awkward to me.

I do. The ideal bumper would be like the V6 with an added mailslot (like the early pre-pros).

Some people said that the V8 bumper looks more agressive. I beg to differ. If you look at the LA show...

Here's another member who is _really_ upset with the decision to offer no blue! First the non-concept-like SS bumper, then the HUD not being available and now this. :mad0260: I am almost 100% sure...

The difference is basically in every body panel. All the proportions are different from the concept.

IMHO, everything that made the concept spectacular (e.g. wide rear end, long hood, low roof)...

Gap below trunk lid

Can anybody explain why there is such a relatively huge gap at the bottom edge of the trunk lid? Is it modeled this way to provide a place to put your fingers when you open the trunk?

Or is it to...

Must have for me. To be honest I do not quite understand why there is this huge delay since the technology has been in the Vette for some time now.

IMHO The V6 looks better - unfortunately. The lower grille on the V8 looks too busy on the V8. Also, since it is significantly larger than the V6 one, it distracts too much from the upper grille. The...

I don't like this SS bumper either. It destroys the near perfect mixture of agressiveness and elegance that made the concept such a great design. This SS bumper looks kind of primitive. I know some...

That's exactly how I think about the changes. The little things do not bother me much, it's the different body proportions that I am not happy with.

If you compare all the body panels between the concept and the (pre-)production cars, almost everything is different.

Originally, a/c HUDs were all vector type displays. Today there are also raster type HUDs and even hybrid ones (e.g. ECR Tornado).

I agree, if the display to be used in the camaro is not a raster...
