hey fen, any chance they can move the bowtie before they go to dealer lots? lmao

PoorMansCamaro · 04-10-2018, 09:47 AM

what I don't fully understand about the flowtie, is that doesn't it currently sit right in front of the frame or support bar/foam that goes behind the bumper?

PoorMansCamaro · 04-10-2018, 09:51 AM

oh, and I dislike the break in the headlight LED.

AZCamaroFan · 04-10-2018, 09:55 AM

i didn't even really pay much attention to the actual headlights until this morning. i don't like their shape either.
i don't like the taillights. i could live with them. i didn't like the 2014's, but i could live with them.
can't live with the front end. Not even a question i wouldn't own one, and i have never said that about any model year Camaro before.

PoorMansCamaro · 04-10-2018, 09:59 AM

Yeah, if I were looking to buy right now, I would go ahead and get the 18. and in a year or two, if I was in the market, I would just wait for the 7th gen. I could live without the A10 and rear view mirror camera.

That's probably set in stone for 2019, but with how much backlash there is about that one detail, GM may revise it for 2020.

There's an un-camo'd SS running around Michigan right now that someone got pics of and honestly the Flowtie is the only thing that really looks bad. Like someone else said, the first company that comes up with a seamless looking fill plug for the bumper is going to make a ton of money.

PoorMansCamaro · 04-10-2018, 10:08 AM

Wonder if the v6/turbo4 front fascia will be hot swappable with the SS. That might be an option for some, if the lower model folks like the SS bumper for some odd reason. LMAO

PoorMansCamaro · 04-10-2018, 10:31 AM

Is there really only 7 color options for the refresh Camaro? 2 blacks, 2 reds, white, silver, and dark blue? wow...

AZCamaroFan · 04-10-2018, 10:33 AM

i noticed that. i prefered camo

AZCamaroFan · 04-10-2018, 04:07 PM

i see opphenheiser posted it on his facebook page and everyone has negative comments. he only responded to one guy and said 'i see you don't own a 5th or 6th gen'

The refresh isn't 5th gen level by any means. But it's not too bad.

I was disappointed when the 6th gen came out. I thought it was a step down from the 5th gen. But I do see this refresh as a step up.

rebelyell22 · 04-10-2018, 11:47 PM

6th gen looks much better imo

PoorMansCamaro · 04-11-2018, 07:24 AM

I honestly still don't like the 5th gen refresh. Even though it's similar to the 6th gen, it's a bit lackluster. For me, it goes 6, 5, 6.5, 5.5 from best to worst.
