Looking real good. I think more than anything this just goes to show how many small details we're missing that the camo hides, and it's those small details that are really going to make the 6th gen look awesome.

I hope the surfacing is not overly busy, as Ed Welburn seems to like to do.

yeah, i'm really liking the sharp lines - we will see in 16 days what the overall car looks like, and really, I hope those that get to see it in person post their opinions as well, because seeing a car in person is really different than seeing it in pictures.

that is what I have been saying...
We are seeing more and more C7 Stingray influence in the design all the time.... to me that's a good thing.

To quote a line from the movie Stripes, "A lean, mean, fightin' machine!"

I'm loving the clean looking rear quarter. That's the one part about the 5th Gen that I thought was a little cartoonish and exaggerated.

I like the design theme:

"For the all-new 2016 Chevrolet Camaro, the design team set out to create a leaner, more athletic design that complemented the new driving experience.

The Camaro went to the gym and came out with a lithe, more athletic physique for the sixth generation,” said Ed Welburn, vice president, GM Global Design. “It’s a more expressive evolution of the Camaro’s iconic character – and one that complements its leaner size and sharper reflexes.”

Who doesn't like buffed?

I will immediately replace that spoiler, but never have kept stocker on any of my cars anyway. The rest looks great....

Not a fan of the wing. Reminds me too much of the Charger or T/A

Really? the small wing they revealed reminds you of that enormous monstrosity?

WOW...

Looks pretty good. And the opening for the taillights look very close to some of Chaz's recent drawings.
