Finally spotted a 6th gen.......

Well, I've have been patiently waiting to see one in person before I judge. Sometimes seeing a car in person gives you a different perspective then pictures. I was in the turning lane in New Baltimore and I see the rear end of the new camaro go by me. I looked around and figured why not chase it down. Caught up to it and right off the bat, wasn't a huge fan of the rear end. It pulls into town and parks where there is two spots side by side. I park next to them and started talking about the car. It's the LT model. Not sure of the name of blue but it's gorgeous. Overall impressions is that it's a sweet car. Now we are all partial to our own cars but I think it's a tweaked version of the 5th gen, IMO it doesn't have the aggressive look that I like . Regardless, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I think these look even more amazing once someone starts tricking it out. Took some pictures, enjoy.

I just doesn't have the stance and presence that the 5th gen has. But it does ha have a bad a$$ motor in it though.

I honestly like my 5th Gen better, it looks more pissed off. They softened all the lines and added lines just to make more lines.

True, I count no less than 6 lines in that hood.

The SS hood looks a little more menacing. Both great looking rides.

Love the Jenny Craig success story of the 6th gen and the slight power increase but that 5th gen swag is just too much for the 6 in my opinion lol. And beautiful car bro!

It just doesn't do it quite for me. Maybe it's the color, or the 6th gen is starting to look characteristically similar to all other modern Chevy sedan models. Nearly after 7 years in production and 5th gen just has that sleek one of a kind look that no other Chevy model had. Btw who put that fuel door there?
