Funny, I was thinking the same thing.

Love the new front end, not sure if I like the taillights. Will have to see more shots of them from a better view.

kind of on the fence about it..will need higher res pics. feel like with the grille and taillight change, it looks a bit more mundane. although a lot of non-camaro owners seem to like the refresh.

Didn't read through all the pages but I'll throw in my opinion.

Thank God I have a 2010!

The hood....TERRIBLE. No more Z/28 style stripes with that one.

Grill...FAIL. I love my OEM 2010 version. I don't even know why people change their grills but that's my opinion. This new one is not any good at all. Looks like the headlights are all crammed in there now.

The tail lights.....COMPLETE FAIL. I don't like them in the slightest. At least not from the pictures I've seen so far.

The only thing that looks ok is the is the lower fog lights that look similar to the ZL1. I still think I prefer mine but these at least are fairly doable.

On a big postive note.....IMO, GM just made my 2010 retain it's value more. I have a feeling the 2014 is not going to go over nearly as well and people are going to be wanting the 2010 - 2013 models.

GM just took a step in the wrong direction in my book.

So, if 66% basically hate the tail lights. What did you want? And don't say something different. Give an example. Something like these or round like 2nd Gens

Ive never seen a new Camaro I didn't like. GM and Chevy know how to design good looking cars, another good job here.

They should have added the "Z Force" Ram Air Hood!

Who ever designed this refreshed camaro should be canned. I hope better brains are designing the 2016 Camaro.
The 2014 looks kind of awkward. the Hood vent looks small, the bow tie seems smaller. and the thinner air slit removes alot from what this car should represent. This camaro now looks more like a regular car. And for the back, makes me think of what Chrysler might come up with.
I am relieved to own a 2013.
hey wait a minute, is that an SS
