As with everything, its going to be subjective. 14-15 front end is more "modern" it seems and way More aggressive than the 10-13. Don't care much for the 14-15 taillights although the RS taillights do look pretty good (still prefer the 10-13 taillights though). It seems the 14-15 front end is just perfect in the way they did the front end. 6th gen front end is too squinted and the 10-13 is too large (although it gives it more of a muscle-car type look). In the end I chose the 15 and have never looked back, nor do I really care because they all look good(except for the 19) and aftermarket exterior mods can make them look even more aggressive. Again, everything is subjective.

Which very well may be GM’s last muscle car design. As now they are very focused on wind tunnel testing drag coefficients, and are more concerned with function over form. Which leads to the squinty front ends on 2014+ into Gen 6

over 400,000 sold in 2010 to 2010 model years. A dip in 2013 for the refresh, slight uptick in 2014 (over the lower 2013 number) and worst year of 5th gen sales in 2015. Just sayin.

But what tail light design was better. Come on!

And the Pontiac Astek comment was harsh.

I read an interesting piece on the Aztec. It was supposed to be truck based but the bean counters got it moved to a minivan platform and crappy engine so it lost all off road prowess, and then throwing plastic on it to make it “look tough” was a disaster.

New ZL1 looks pretty sweet. Getting used to 6th gens. I do like the 15 SS style myself. But of course I'm biased. The 10-13 rears look cool as well. If I were to really pick one stock..I'd go 14-15. I think that's where the stock Camaro looked more aggressive.

I said it before...if the 13 to 14 Camaro was the only option for that car.....its possible a Mustang would be in my driveway. Thankfully it wasn't.
I completely disagree with you but to each his own...

They should change the thread title to "What year do you hate the most?" It would be closer to the actual responses.....

The cai intake on that COPO?! OMG! It reminds me of the old school Ram-Air style intakes of the 60s/70s.

You don't get much more straight-through flow than that.

Is Vararam still doing the COPO intakes?
