Still hoping for LS7/Z28 but pretty sure that will be a 2015 model once the assembly of Camaro is moved back to US.

Nope, but I don't need one to be excited about progress!

I have a Silverado and I'm excited about the new 2014 model.
I have a G8 GT and I'm excited to see what Chevy does with the new SS.

I guess we just see things differently.

My prediction:

Slight change to front fascia limited to grille, and possibly reshaped fog lamps. Possibly a change to the tail lights and the diffuser. No changes to the sides of the car.

Very minor, if any changes to the interior.

Possibly another new round of wheel selections.

Kinetic Blue available.

Possibly a V6 "track" pack option with the SS gears and 1LE or SS suspension and Brembos.

No bump in power to the V6, L99, or LS3.

MAYBE the LS7 being an additional option, but I'm making no bets on that one.

This is exactly my point. If I had an iPhone4, and had no intention of getting the iPhone 5 - why would I ever be excited about the cool new features I'm not getting???

I guess we'll see how "refreshed" this version is, probably not anything I'm going to care about. I would much rather save the revisions for the 6th gen - when it will be time to move up.

I don't see huge changes like everyone is talking about. The sheetmetal is going to be pretty much the same. They will probably change the front and rear fascias and probably the headlights and taillights.

Knowing their penchant for pinching penny on the Camaro, they will likely throw the EU spec tail lights in a revised rear fascia (the horrible looking LED lights that look like sunglasses).

I hope they surprise us with a an improved dashboard and gauge cluster, but that costs money, and they have to devote most of that to meeting bogus regulations instead of improving the Camaro.

People still hoping for a Z28... I mean I guess it could fit where the Boss 302 fit for the Mustang, in between the SS/1LE and the ZL1 maybe 40K base range but why now? why when the 6th gens will be out in 2-3 years anyway? Guess we'll find out soon enough..

agree

agreed!

Kinetic Blue available.
can't agree with you on this one.

Possibly a V6 "track" pack option with the SS gears and 1LE or SS suspension and Brembos.
hadn't thought about this but it would be cool. Could include splitter and ZL1 rockers!

No bump in power to the V6, L99, or LS3.
I think there will be a slight bump on all of them.

MAYBE the LS7 being an additional option, but I'm making no bets on that one.
my bet is no.
