What is your least favorite Camaro? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Based on styling alone, and not performance/powertrain, what is your least favorite generation of Camaro and why? (Saying you like them all equally is a cop-out and does not answer the question. Still, I know it is going to happen.)

For me it would have to be the 4th Gen. Yeah, they ran well, especially the LS-engined cars, but the styling did/does nothing for me. Even the SS version of those cars is lacking, IMO.

Ooops. Mod's can you add a poll with a option for 1st Gen, 2nd Gen, 3rd Gen, 4th Gen and 5th Gen? I guess I didn't check the right box.

2nd Generation for sure. Butt ugly styling. HORRIBLE. 3rd Gen was ok but 4th Gen was BUTT UGLY as well. 4th Gen looked like a glorified 2 door intrepid.

1st Generation is best and 5th Gen is great to even tho i dont like the "hips"

TaylorRyanSS · 02-18-2010, 10:15 PM

5th gen...

not

3rd gens for sure

tightchevelle69 · 02-18-2010, 10:15 PM

well if i only include certain years of generations of being what i like then i would say my least favorite is the 4th gens overall....but i really hate the 2nd gens after they went to the plastic bumpers. but i love the early 70's with the rs split bumper and the huuuge open grill!

BackinBlackSS/RS · 02-18-2010, 10:18 PM

4th gen 98 to 02. IMO, they really screwed up the nose.

OuSoonersGirl · 02-18-2010, 10:19 PM

4th gen. I just don't like the way it looks. My sister had one with T-top and I still thought it was ugly.

the majority is putting my car down i see

its not that we are putting down your car, but rather pointing out that the design strayed toooo far away from what a camaro should have been during those years! but everything goes in cycles. one generation is boxy, hard lined and the next is more bubbly and rounded. you can see that in almost every make and model of car!

I put 4th gen, but not yours. I love the nose on the 93 to 97.

I agree with this 100%. The plastic front clip on the 2nd gen is

. If I had to pick an entire generation that I didn't like, I'd have to say 3rd gen.

RichieRich · 02-18-2010, 10:44 PM

Camaros that don't work.

n!ght r!der · 02-18-2010, 10:47 PM

I don't like the 2nd gens as much as the others, but i'd be fine with it if someone gave me a working one...

DarthNacho08 · 02-18-2010, 10:59 PM

I don't like the 2nd gens at all, but I love the 3rd and 4th gens

BackinBlackSS/RS · 02-18-2010, 11:04 PM

I will say if it were least favorite mustang it would be tough with so many years that were so ugly.
