But now we get close to the unveiling and we see changes that are cosmetic and completely arbitrary looking and I can tell that I'm not the only one here who feels a bit cheated. Maybe too many people tried too hard to sell us the concept and how much this would be like that?
I'm not real happy about the way it's coming along. I don't know if the disciples were shown some of these changes and had no opinions. I'm hoping these leaks are them "testing the water" to see reaction. If so then I suggest people who have been fawning over this take off your "camaro" colored glasses and look at it objectively. If this were the new Mustang would you be so in LOVE with that lower fascia? I hope not. It looks so 80's car to me. That thing really detracts from the entire car.
It's like someone having a brand new car and someone bashes the door in and never gets it fixed sort of pitiful looking.
Maybe someone less bitter can explain this better than me.

your last 3 posts before this have been entirely on point...it does feel like many on this site are drinking the kool-aid and don't want to criticize it...criticizing is good...it helps the final product become a better product...your not the only one who feels like this....
and the majority of people who will buy a camaro will not be camaro enthusiasts....many of them too will feel like its not quite like the concept and say what happened to bumblebee...
but at the same time there is some changes we can do in the aftermarket to make it look more like the concept like a new rear bumper to get rid of that bump...i know the halo's will be an option and the lower front fascia will probably be interchangeable....all is not lost and a few minor tweaks will have it looking concept like...
afterburners....oh a man can dream right???
