Some people think their opinion is more important than what the facts show.

I heard the new platform is based on the schriner model g gokart platform! Hahaha it will be ok guys!

I'd like to see something in quotations from Chevy. That automobile magazine with the Gen2 influenced mockup was just a media outlet "reporting" speculation as if it were fact.

Some of you guy's really just need to take a chill pill, for real. Some of you sound a lot like "Chicken Little" screaming that the sky is falling. Yee of little faith, are we that gullible to take any and every little made up article with no truth or insight from any credible source as fact? Get a grip people.

I also drove a 2.0 Turbo ATS during a weekend getaway and I really enjoyed this cars sportiness and driving dynamics especially its toss ability factor. The ATS was very roomy and had good access and did I mention that it felt very light on its feet.The 6th gen will not disappoint on this new Alpha chassis, "I Have Faith".

I love my car but I'm looking forward to the new and improved car and what the team has in store for us to take on the ford and dodge boys.

But Chicken Little was right...the sky was falling.

If the Gen6 Camaro is not at the Detroit autoshow, it's because the new Mustang isn't viewed as too much a threat. Which I think it isn't !! So why steal away from possible 2015 sales. The latest MT article clearly shows the 2015 Camaro is still in the hunt in it's current form.

The Gen 5 DWARFS it. These cars are too big, period. They have trouble getting out of their own way. The ATS platform is BARELY smaller, people. Side by side, you won't even notice the difference without breaking out a tape measure. The Gen 6 is going to walk the Gen 5 in the quarter mile AND around a track because it'll be practically the same design, but lighter. That means faster ET's and better handling. The Gen 5 is an IRS track car guys. It isn't a solid rear axle quarter mile king.

I don't know what some of you want. No matter what the answer is, it's the wrong answer. Relax. What matters here is the aesthetics. I'm not worried at all with GM's handling of the performance. I KNOW the Gen 6 is going to outperform the Gen 5 in every way. I'm worried about them screwing up the looks. By the way they botched the 2014's and 2015's so badly, I'm afraid they'll move more in that Euro-direction and further soften the car's looks. Move the car to a more aggressive look like the 2010-2013 cars and shed some size and weight and we'll be in great shape. Hopefully the wheels shrink to 19's too. That'll really up the performance and seriously cut some cost off of wheels and tires.

Sales are good for the 2014-15. The 2014-15 is definitely more aggressive looking. IMO it is even more aggressive looking than the ZL1.
