Back end

Ok The more I look at the Camaro and the closer It gets to Production the worse it looks. I think the tires are goofy as hell looking (side walls are HUGE) And Chrome those rims plz. And the back end of the car is not as Smooth as the proto type and the rear lights are to well BLAH. And the grille is cheap looking I also hope that the photos ive seen are the Little girls version. Dont get me wrong Im a Camaro Nut for 25 yrs and had my first one at 15 but if your going to sell me this car they better not make it to cheesy and busy, keep it clean PLZZZZ. I Want BAD ASS not Cheesy mess, Bobb

All i can tell you is wait until you actually see it in person, almost like the concept, all the pictures don't do it justice.

Also the head/tail lights are not the production versions.

Well, that pic is missing the spoiler, has a dent in the back of the deck lid, doesn't have production tail lights, is missing the rear production valance over the mufflers, shouldn't have two yellow side lights, and yeah....the reverse lights in the bumper aren't all that great, but what can we do about them?

Wheels? That's the kind of stuff (chrome) that can easily be changed and shouldn't make your mind up for the whole car. Goes for the side walls too. I'm sure we are seeing one of many options for tires on this car. If GM doesn't offer it, Discount Tire is all over the country!

I will def wait to see the real car in person to make up my mind I just wanted to see what others thought about those items. I know the Challenger concept is great looking and I believe they kept it close to that version. I just hope they dont nasty it up with cheap items. I might have to start CNCing some replacement parts. I will still buy one LOL

Personally, I don't see where this strayed that far from the concept. GM did a fantastic job keeping it as close as they did.

Well not to far but suttle items I dont care for. The rear tail lights really bug me I want the proto type taillamps and rear section look at the photo I attached Not a smooth rear section like the concept. But someone metioned that theres a cover missing so maybe im jumping the gun. Any way still buying one.

Matured? ok think it looks to busy but I see your point.

rear lights look like an after thought. to me

well can see you know a lot about avitars.

I own a 69 camaro had a 68 I just sold and have had Camaros since I was 15 so I do know the lines trust me. Just my opion thats all.

Could just be that photo just wanted some feed back not to make anyone mad.

lol I can't really see the tires though. If I could change the look of the tail lights...I'd either have a "frosted" look or a glossy black housing "outline" then the solid reds and yellows. Other than that, I know I'm not an expert on muscle cars but I can clearly see some Muscle Accents in the back.
