Just wanted to make sure BODIH got my PM on showing up for this Saturday. Message service was kinda funky.

I'm tossing in the towel on the huge SEMA show in Glendale in order to hang out with my favorite brothers and sisters!

...plus the fact that I really don't want to have to fuel that gas hog of a stupid car for a round trip to Glendale this weekend...

Oh, is everybody set for tools?

Kind of beating a dead horse here, but any comments on the 2014 black Camaro video show in Argentina? My views remain unchanged after seeing it. Interior still looks familiar as in very minor, if any changes from '13. The outside - hands down the '13. The pushed under nose and mundane tail have to go.

Now if they would have kept the nose from '13 with a slightly slimmer grill (like they did) giving it an even more aggressive look and a tail with lights still the same shape as the '13 but without bezels (aka Vette style) and flared out the rear quarter panels a little more in order to accommodate some new recessed lower rear brake cooling duct inlets (aka Porsche 911) THEN I might have thought about seriously holding off - but not this.

Early at work and rambling. Never-mind. Back to work...

I agree, though I'm still waiting to see it in person. I've always said that my next buy will depend on what the 6th gen looks like. If not that, then maybe the C7 Vette, or a 1LE in the last model year of the 5th Gen. From the pictures, the refresh looks too passive for me, so that option is looking less likely.

With everyone switching out their front fog lamps and such, I know they look whiter but exactly how many LUMENS are they putting out compared to stock? I have read in a few forums about some aftermarket lights that were more for looks than function because they were in reality far less functional than the stock ones.
