I just realized what's missing from the 2016 Camaro... And I love it
 Those stupid fake "gills" are gone! It's so subtle that I didn't even realize it at first. Very awesome

Yes another pro in my decision of upping my 14 LS with a 15 SS or just waiting till the year end and getting a 16 SS. Those gills didnt really look good. Maybe in the 60s but now, either real vents or nothing!

The real question is ... will the 6th gen Z/28 or ZL1 get a functional rear brake duct where the fake vent was on the 5th?

That was one of the first things I noticed. I hated them from the start.

Wow! I hadn't noticed that either! Glad they're gone. Not a fan of nonfunctional stuff like that.

Those fake gills apparently did have a function...... they were there just to PISS. YOU. OFF. They worked pretty good!
 Look at the new side rockers covers, they go halfway up the 1/4 panel. It's going to be easy to design louvers, scoops etc into the panel.
