I agree the guy doesn't know what he's talking about. Also he stated "improved interior".

Personally I think there will be a major performance boost announced tomorrow.

That's a bit of a stretch. Just because us "enthusiasts" like something doesn't mean it's right for the average car buyer. You above all should know an American muscle car takes a special breed of person to actually buy one. All those lemmings that have been buying "eurasian" cars are all of the sudden going to jump on the Camaro14 bandwagon?

Wishful thinking at best.

Poor excuse for a heat extractor hood scope though. We lost the classic bulging hood too.

I like the front and the fact it has a heat vent on top but the whole firebird rear end I hate.

I thought only the SS was on display tomorrow - but I guess it wouldn't be a stretch to have a second or even third model on stage....

I think the front end will grow on me and I even really like the fog lights.

The hood is terrible. I don't like the wider cowel. The heat extractor looks cheap, like the air return for the HVAC system in my house.

I do not like the tail lights at all, I've always like the current version even when they originally came out.

The rear spoiler is a little too much for my tastes, as is the rear diffuser (at least from what is shown).

Happy to have my '11.

It's the Jay Leno Camaro with refinments. Wow, I wasn't really expecting that. The lower grille is the Leno lower grille. Fog's looked better on the Leno, and the upper grille is just reverse of the Leno, instead of focusing on the horizontal bars, they focused on the vertical bars. Wheels and the spoiler are the same as the Leno Camaro too, not in the press photo but on the stage

The front looks like its had a bad facelift (think Cher). Pulled back waaaaaaaayyyyyy too tight at the corners. It has lost it's angry furrowed brow look and deep set headlights. Just looks more and more wimpy when I look at it. Disappointed.

I'm sure someone else will probably beat me to it but, I will be at the NY Auto Show on Tuesday evening. I will take some more pics and post them if someone else hasn't already.
