Thanks GM...

Just this afternoon my lovely wife mentioned she had seen not one, but two brand new 2014 Camaros on the road Tuesday.

Her opinion of the car was not one of exuberance. In fact, her words were, and I quote, "They ruined the Camaro!"

Her comment was based solely on "the old man tail lights", as she put it.

Her last words on the subject went something like this, "even if I had the money, I wouldn't buy you a new Camaro".

SHEESH! And she digs Camaros.........all generations.

Maybe next year, or the next, or... Rant over.

I understand that one have to stand by the close ones

Honestly my wife said the same thing. only she described it as more feminine looking. Even if I didn't hate it before she said that I wouldn't buy one after that. Lol

The first time I saw one in person it was across from an overpass and I saw the headlights and I thought it was a corvette on really BIG rims....Then I drove past it and I couldn't believe it was the new camaro. No real opinion about it just saying what I thought I saw.

I also have corrected vision 20/15.....

Don't get me (and the wife) wrong here people, I am not spewing hate on the Camaro. It has been said of me, that I have a Camaro fetish, and am totally a fan.

I know this subject (2014 ass end) has long ran it's course and has been beat to death, it just struck me funny how my wife reacted to the new make over, and completely caught off guard.
