Nice! I really liking those DRL's, LED blinkers... Can't wait to trade my 16' in for a nice fresh 19' 2SS. Hate it or not, gonna be a number of people like me who will be happy and satisfied. Could give two Fu*** what anyone thinks. LOL And i am going to show the mother plucker off like mad on these forums when i do bring her home.

You got it, I agree completely

Wouldn’t be the first time that happened!

Having not seen it yet in person, I’m gonna agree with you.

I'm leaning towards Satin Steel, it matches up with all the new features like a glove.

The new taillights looks terrific with it too.

Um, nope. Camaro sales will continue to drop. This isn't going to increase sales at all. So, another fail. Not that I care, I wasn't buying one anyways. Now, if they would of came out with some kind of performance increases that made it worth it to move up, then.................maybe. But, nothing happened other than some body mods.

All of these “grotesque” postings are funny and exactly the same happened at the time of the last refresh too.

Opinions are a wonderful thing, but that’s all they are - they are not facts.

Sales numbers are facts. Let’s see where we stand in a year.

They have one sale for certain. Mine.

I’m pretty sure the sales figures won’t end at just one
It'd be funny if you got another ZL1.

I agree it will sell well and i think when they come out with the SS 1LE it will strike up even more interest .It won't be long before the 2019 owners start showing up and the A10 option is going to bring more people in and when they have the bragging rights to which is faster its going to get really interesting here .

Agreed! I think the article is wrong on the wheels. It also states the SS will launch in the fourth quarter. I don;t think we have heard anything that states that also.

I have a very difficult time believing Camaro sales will do anything but continue to drop, sadly. The '19 refresh is not a look that most people like, it's not a minor styling change, it's a major one. So with sales already not great I don't see it getting any better when opinions on styling do largely seem negative. Good news is that GM can redeem themselves one hundred fold with the 7th Gen Camaro.

Maybe the did this ugly one to cause some pent up demand for the 7th Gen.

It will. People disliked the 2nd gen when introduced, the 3rd gen upon introduction, the 4th gen for replacing the 3rd. Then, due to the break between 03 to 09, people fell in love with the 5th gen. Then, they hated the refresh, then the 6th gen. Now the 6th gens refresh. See a pattern?

I read a new Transformer movie is coming out in late December based on "Bumblebee". Maybe this is why the refresh looks like it does. Looking for sales lightning to strike again with the movie tie-in.

Side profile looks great , IMO. Rest of car is growing on me, especially those new wheels. The front end is not the best but I can live with it. I wonder why they went away from the gloss back rear diffuser though?
