Well, it is certainly an improvement over the horrendous 2014 botch job IMO. It looks like they merged a 2013 with a 2014.

I am not taking much stock in these photos. Yes, I believe they are legit but ultimately the options are what made the 5th gens look so good. Compare a non-RS V6 base model to a 1LE. They are wildly different and not even in the same league. IMO the lowest base model Camaro isn't very exciting, but a fully decked-out ZL1 with black 10-spokes and the carbon fiber insert is one of the hottest cars ever made IMO. Throw a nice stripe kit and a set of gloss black 10 spokes and the car will totally come alive. I want to see REAL, high-res, detailed photos of the car with all the different options and trim levels before I make a judgment.

I want to see this vehicle maxed out on the options sheet in black paint with some black ZL1 10-spokes or gloss black Forgestars. I bet it'll look great, and when you factor in an extra 25-30 horsepower, a 7-speed manual transmission and a 200 lb weight reduction I bet the thing will be a smash hit.

VIDEO!!!

EDIT: ChefborOzzy beat me to it. lol

It really sucks that the video cut off early. The 6 sounds great....It has the dual mode exhaust, so I wouldn't expect it to sound like that without it. I can't wait to see the performance numbers on the LGX either like someone said above.

One thing about this car that seems like a vast improvement to me based on the video is the stance. Its low...where it should be in stock form, unlike the 5th gen V6 which had huge gaps.

My impression so far. Front looks great. Side I don't know b/c there are no good shots, but it doesn't seem any better than 5th gen based on those very limited and low quality shots. Rear...I'm a bit disspointed initially, but then again I can honestly say I like it better than the 2014 refresh. The taillights actually look great, and I'm VERY happy the lowered the diffusor, so those are both pluses for me, but something about it doesn't look aggressive enough.

I'm hoping good high def shots do the trick.

In the end, I think it was wrong of them to reveal the car in this fashion....BAD MOVE GM!!! These low quality shots of the car will circle the web and all the various enthusiast's forums today and the car will get a bad first impression.

But I'm still very interested, and I can't wait to learn all the good stuff that hopefully tomorrow will bring!

And all that info will be posted along with plenty of videos and pictures. They just undermined tomorrow for some crappy news clips.

I guess it wouldn't be a big deal if I lived in the area and could drive there in a few minutes. I could considered going and I live in So Cal. It would have been an expensive trip.

Not for me either.

Also, I don't think it was smart to show it a day early after making a big deal about the Detroit reveal. There is still a lot to show but I would be pissed if I drove all the to Detroit to have it shown a day early. They didn't learn their lesson from the Michael and Kelly fiasco though I don't think this car will have as bad a reception as the refresh first had. Why show it on an obscure talk show and not tell anybody ahead of time? I guess they didn't want people to watch it?
I totally agree !!!

Dunno, the pics could be photoshopped renderings, now that would be cool if GM was catfishing us. Regardless, I'm thinking the interior is going to get as much attention as the exterior.

been looking around without success. Is there a live link for the reveal? I saw "the**************" is supposed to be the place to go for latest pics and vids......but it didn't say live link. Did I miss it somewhere?
