Exactly how I feel.

I hate the new spoiler and I couldn't have plastic links in the suspension, but yes I would buy one if my 1LE ever gets totaled and only then. Maybe in orange with white stripes

I am one of the few that cant stand the interior of the 6th gen, I like the exterior though as for the direction it is going, but to me it does nothing to me like the 10s~13s did for me. ya we all know that everything in this world progresses, including Camaros, however my 13 just "Fits" me, it is perfect for me...
If I were to regrettably lose my car or wreck it or something, I might consider a 6th gen, but I am totally into the 5th gens and it would be a hard decision as to which one to get.
But luckily I dont have to make that decision, However I would be leaning heavily towards a 5th gen......I just cant see me driving around in that 6th gen with that monstrosity of a dash staring at me.
Meh, I'll just stick with mine, it has everything I could ever want on it...

The 5th gen looks like a muscle car and the 6th gen looks like a sports car. That sums it up for me. It looks very BRZ esque from the rear quarter panel. I may like it the more I look at it in person but I'm not interested in trading mine in for a 2016.

If I were a 'new' car/camaro buyer, then a G6 would be likely. But I don't see it replacing my 5th Gen, let alone my C6.

I think the BRZ looks quite a bit better than the gen 6 Camaro.

I still like my 2011 but will probably get a 1ss 6 speed. If I like the way it drives.

I know the interiors of the 5th gen re nothing to get too excited about but that's not why I bought the Camaro in the first place. I buy a muscle/performance car for what's under the hood. I also saw the 5th gen as a solid platform to build on with mods because I always mod my cars. To be completely honest I don't need gobs of technology, I need power, good sounding exhaust and a decent stereo and I'm happy. Throw on a cool inferno orange metallic paint job and I'm over the moon happy. But the 6th gen doesn't even have an orange any more so I'm out.

+1 exactly what my V8 upgrade will have.

I actually like about 95% of the new Camaro. There is something about the back side window section and the bottom part of the rear side quarter panels I do not like...however...it could grow on me. On the other hand, I really like my 2015 ZL1 which reminds me more of my first Camaro which was a '69. On the corvette side...when I owned my C6 Z06 I thought nothing would ever be better...but when the C7 Z06 debuted...it made the C6 Z06 look very outdated...so outdated that it didn't appeal to me anymore.

BruHop · 05-20-2015, 01:21 AM

I have a 1LE. The 6th gen SS isn't that big of a performance upgrade for me to change. I'll wait to see where their performance improvements fall in the future.I really like the looks of my 1LE. So I'm not swayed yet. Now the C7 could be the performance upgrade in the future for me.

Jsafe17 · 05-20-2015, 01:30 AM

At this pnt I am way more disappointed than excited about the 6th gen.. my 2010 looks like it wants to punch you in the face just sitting there. The 2016 looks like it's little sister. And give me at least 74 more hp than my 2010 not 29hp..
