Got to say

I think we will all be shocked how a modded 2016 SS or 1LE will look.
Not quite fair to compare a stock LT to that beautifully modded Callaway.

Who knows in a few years I may change my mind, but you won't see me rushing to the dealer to put an order in.

I agree completely, I think, change the wheels, bring it down and do some other mods and I think some people that aren't fans might think differently.

Love the new front and from the pictures I've seen the interior is very nice. The hyper models will definitely create some additional excitement for the Camaro somI look forward to those unveilings.

Callaway looks awesome BTW

Your Callaway looks like it means business. The 6th gen looks a little too generic. Love the 5th, especially the 2010-13's with the heritage grill and the rear tail lights with the smaller diffuser.

look at the side mirrors.. they look "off" and too bulky. What is with the horizontal indent towards the bottom of them. I need to see one in person......

Looks to me like they made changes to make changes. Like others have said that fuel door is just plain wierd and as well as all the lines on the hood the side lines do not seem to flow as well as 5th generation. I like the front end and am sure that someone will soon come out with an upgrade kit for the 5th generation to look like the new generation although there are already kits out there that make some dramatic changes. i am overall glad that they kept the same basic overall shape so I am not inclined to have to open up my wallet to upgrade to a 6th generation.

I would have to agree. What were they thinking...?!
