They seem pretty much vertical, so you have to lean your head back for your head to make contact with the headrest. This is not ideal for when an accident occurs. Ideally, you want the headrest to tilt forward slightly, such that when sitting comfortably in the seat, your head is in contact with the headrest. This what your head is braced, or their is very little travel distance for your head, when an accident occurs, thus reducing the chance of whiplash. Now, let me say this, I have not yet had the chance to sit in a Camaro, it was roped off at the show I went to. But from pictures, I know it looks different than the headrest on my BMW, which I would consider to be nearly perfect.
