A side thought.... if Chevrolet makes the V8 a free flow option with RS trim, would it keep the RS front and hood? And if so, how many who hate the new SS front would go that route to get the engine without the SS front?
Yeah, they should have done it long ago...…

I mentioned this a while back....It's the missing link in the Camaro line-up..

http://www.chevrolet.com/byo-vc/clie.../camaro/config

2018 1LS...........$26,900

2018 1LS w/V6...$28,395

2018 1LS w/V8...$30,000-$32,000....????

2018 1SS...........$37,995

I would think there is plenty of wiggle room in between the 1SS (38K) and the 1LS (27K) for a much less expensive V8 option other than the 1SS.


The V-6 1LE is $32,895..., a $4,500 1LE option, which is basically an SS with V6....It takes another 5K to go to the 1SS price....

Leave it an LS, non 1LE, add 5K for the V8, and you're at $32K for a V-8 LS..

That would be a great idea. RS V8. basic everything, but V8.

Agree

The bow tie placement is ...different... but I don't have a problem with it. The overall look is hot!

The placement is reminiscent of the 1970-73 RS trims.

After a year or so of people seeing it in the middle it will look "off" seeing it up high.

At first I thought I would never warm up to the '14 refresh and in 2015 I bought one !

It does just would have liked to see at least the refresh led head lights incorporated into the ZL1 grille or something. Did they even go led on the turn signals like the rest of the refreshed models?
