I like the RS lights on that better as well, but not as much as the 10-13's (But its slowly growing on me). Loving the front though. I wish they would have kept Victory Red color. :(

I read on Camaro5 that GM has changed the 2014 SS hood louver from flat grey to body color due to many complaints.
It would be a nice surprise if they did the same with the rear and either changed to the 2014 Corvette tail lights or back to the 2010-2013 style but make the lights standard sequential like Technostaligia brand. Plasma afterburners built in and tinted.

The license plate area just looks awful.

I love how many of you don't remember what a Camaro looked like just 15 years ago...


For those that don't remember, the 2014 Camaro taillights are very similar to the 1993-2002 Camaro taillights... As well as the 3rd gens.... As well as the late 2nd gens.... and the same overall shape as the 1st gens, even though 1st gens' taillights were flat...

5th Generation pic from above flipped horizontally so it's at the same general angle as most of the pics below:


4th Generation:


3rd Generation:


Late 2nd Generation (early 2nd gens were the odd ball with the two circle taillights...)


1st Generation, though flat, carries the same shape:

I like them, actually like the non-led style better, like the ones on the Z28.

Nailed it! So many die hards on here that don't understand this. We owe corvette a huge thank you for allowing us to use their light style to help make the gen 5 a beauty for 2010 - 2013. Thank you Gm for bringing the Camaro lights back to Camaro.

I think I'm one of the few that just loves the third and fourth gen cars. Some of them were unremarkable with respect to performance, but they are gorgeous cars. I'm still convinced my old LS1 hawk with LTs, minicats, and a lid, would dust my SS. sorry, off topic.

Personally, I really like the new LED tailights. I think they look great. I'd be interested to see what the aftermarket will come up.

That is exactly what I thought! Prelude ala early 2000's.

I don't mind the rear lights myself, but I feel that it doesn't quite fit the bodywork of a gen 5 as well as the 10-13's.

Oh, what a wonderful world it would be had it not been for that pesky Honda Prelude....

Too bad Chevy can't use styling cues from it's own past heritage and designs without the obsession on what imports look like, and told they should avoid a certain look that reminds some of a car nobody gave a crap about until now...lol...

back end's not even the worst part, it's the anemic fleet-car inspired front grill. It's been shortened to the point of being fit for a sedan.
