2010 Camaro SS -- NEW closeup photos of front-end!!! -- 7/11/08

[chadrcr]

All the Camaros look good, some more than others, let us hope we have the option to buy the one that 'I' like best, and let 'U' do the same, quit throwing around the doom and gloom statements...like destroyed the look... it may have lessened its appeal to some.... but destroyed? it has not changed THAT much.... no blue oval on it..... that would dest.... not gonna say it.

I thought the v8 was a SS ???? I don't see it anywhere ???? the Z 28 will be 2011 or 2012 so this should be the SS no...

I'm surprised no one has commented on the taillight "outlines". That silver or white or whatever looks incredibly cheap. Hopefully the production model will have body colored outlines.

The concept had a silver outline around the taillights. I hope the production model keeps the chrome/silver.

I'd much rather have one that looks like this. (NOT the rest of the mods, just the grille!)

Cardboard grille and all, that is still the BEST looking version of the Camaro (minus the stripes) to be seen yet.

yes a bigger opening in the bottom would help get air to the innercooler but you can do that without making it look like a guppy

I've always said being 'normal' or 'common' is too mundane. Yep, I love that version.

That really stinks that they did that, on top of that for the states that don't require a front plate you now have that ugly plate molding on the bumper.

Blah

That bracket isn't molded into the bumper. It's SCREWED into the bumper. Exactly why I refuse to have one on my car (NJ here as well). No one is drilling holes in my car. I can't believe they can't come up with a way to attach it that doesn't require you to destroy your front bumper.

Every car I've seen with a spot molded for the front plate, also has a 'filler plate' that is put in place when no front plate is required. My S10 Xtreme had it, as did the last gen Firebirds.

I've never seen a mold that stuck out like that, they're usually recessed.

LOL I thought I'd read somewhere that that particular scene was going to revert to it's original version in future releases. Han shot first dammit! haha

Bite your tongue!!! LOL

(how's THAT for vague???)

(.......did I mention that I like my job and unless you're gonna give me about 10 million in unmarked bills, I'm not talkin????)

i just want my supercharged maro; i will get another bumper if i have too. im sure that wings west will have something good for me to buy.

I'm almost positive that front bracket is screwed on, not molded on. It would be nice if they had pre-drilled holes with covers, that way I can run legal plates for daily driver duties and take the front plates off for shows and stuff.
