New Camaro Tail Lights and Side View Mirrors Revealed! (possibly export model) - Page 37 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

THESE ARE FOR EUROPE PEOPLE!!!!! This subject has been beaten to death.

Again...... notice the following:

- Front and Rear Towing Hooks (required by ECE for Europe)
- Folding Mirrors (required by ECE for Europe)
- Different Rear Lighting w/ Rear Fog Lamps (required by ECE for Europe)

You have even gotten word from Hylton who works in the plant that this is in fact for the European Camaros. Stop freaking out and trashing GM Design. There are a lot of legal requirements that differ from region to region. Be happy that we are allowed better styling in the US.

Seriously?

OK MODS... this thread had almost died down and lost the Chicken Little affect. Then you gotta go bring it back to life. Now we can have another 20 pages of people freaking about about the Japanese Mirrors.
And the rear reflectors are moved down to be where European car manufacturers have them now. This is an EXPORT car... NOT A US CAR.

but let the fun continue, and all the freak outs resume

I'm not worried about these pics because I do believe that they are for the European market. But where are the info and pics of the 2012 changes for the U.S., it is almost the end of the year.

SirBrad · 11-15-2010, 02:37 PM

Lawdog1911 · 11-15-2010, 02:42 PM

LAWMAN · 11-15-2010, 02:47 PM

the t/lights might grow on me after awhile,most folks wanna go led's there anyway,but they do look kinda unfinished,the clear portion of course has to be for the reverse lights,if folks remember back when ours came out that there were complaints about the current reverse lights,i had no gripe myself about the current rev/lights,....just curious about the cage underneith between the muffs.,as far as the mirrors,ridiculous!

Slake · 11-15-2010, 02:50 PM

I also have to wonder, is it just me or is the black trim around the drivers side window darker? It also has black roof ditch moldings and does not have the RS badge, but has the halos.

Good eye you have there,

I'm GLAD I have a 2010...

Those mirrors look like DUMBO ears...

and sunglasses for tail lights.

rudack · 11-15-2010, 02:59 PM

Eh, not for me. Glad my 2010 got fixed.

Gonzo · 11-15-2010, 03:09 PM

I pretty much agree with everyone that the taillights and side mirrors are terrible. What a way to mess up a truley beautiful car.

Any one else notice what looks like washers on the bumper just in front of the headlights?
