Finally saw one

Hockeypucks · 06-13-2015, 08:44 PM

I apologize for starting this thread without any pics but it wasn't possible for me today. I am a driver in SE Michigan so I see thousands of cars a day. I finally saw a '16 Camaro today without any camo whatsoever. Perhaps someone else saw it as well but I haven't seen anyone post up any pics. It was a gray RS on 696 & 75 at 1:30 this afternoon.

I was heading west and he was going east. There was a bit of ramp traffic for him so he had to slow down but I couldn't do much to slow down since I was going the opposite way. I noticed the car instantly and I gotta say, they could have done without the extra LED lights on the facia/bumper cover (I know it's an option, but still). Like the C7, the headlight LED was very bright so I felt it was pretty distracting but other than that I am happy I finally saw one. It was an overcast day today in Detroit so those lights really pop. I craned my neck as much as I could without causing an accident ha but here's to hoping we'll see more soon.

I have no reason to make this up but I wish I could've been near it to take a video or pics for proof. I've been on the lookout for this car for a while now and today it happened. Very fast looking car from the little glimpse I had today. Ok, that's all. Again, sorry for no pics :(

Very good. I will be looking harder now that we know the CTFs are starting to appear.

No doubt, it was one of the CTF Camaros. They're out on the street (we saw one at Bakers in Milford just a few weeks ago), and you weren't very far from the GM Tech Center in Warren.

Awesome! Sometimes I wish I lived up there just so I could see all the new cars coming out driving around

I've been to the tech center several times but haven't seen them around yet. Odd but something tells me that'll change soon
