I know what a quarter panel is...good lord man thanks for basically calling me ignorant when I'm trying to understand exactly what your gripe is...At least I'm trying to see your point. But your comment is just confusing to me and as you can see above, another member agreed with me, so apparently I'm not the only one.

If you are talking just strictly the 1/4 panel area, then I have to disagree. The 5th gen has no exterior "design flaws". Its meant to look how it does. Its meant to show off the lines. If you don't like that particular part of the design...that's your opinion (and that's fine!) but its not a "flaw".

Thanks for not even trying. I expected more from you. I think we can just agree to disagree.

Frankly if the 6th gen doesn't have lines that reflect its bold shape in the sun I'll be pretty disappointed.

He's been grouchy all over the forums lately.
I guess it's that time of the month for him?

A slight variation.

Flatten out the ends of those headlamps to about 50 - 60% of that, and I say you've got a winner.

Ok, since you want to make this personal I'll tune in again. Gang up on me all you want but apparently GM didn't take the this as a joke when the 5th gen came out. Many complaints came into GM so document/bulletins #2346049 and 09-08-51-004 were released on 9/10/09 re: PERCEIVED PAINT MISMATCH. Tran tuned into camaro5 on 9/17/09 in which 115 post followed. Do a search @ 1/4 panel paint match. Like I said days ago, I hope GM has corrected this problem on the 6th gen..

Who the hell are you and where did I say your name? Oh, that's right, I didnt. So, get your thong out of a knot.

Its not a GM problem that people are too stupid to understand that a paint with pear, etc in it looks different at different angles. There is nothing to correct.

You are right...GM didn't take it as a joke...but they should have. From the post you referenced http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42941

Addressing Customer Concerns

Use the following photographs and descriptions to demonstrate to the vehicle owner that what they are seeing on their vehicle is not a color mis-match, but an intended design feature.
OK...so back to our regularly scheduled programming.
