that doesn't look bad really, I don't like verts.

I like the face lift, I don't understand everyone's dislike.

I like the 2014 in silver and white. Not so much in the reds.


Still a beautiful car

I like the 2014 better, and just bought a '13. My decision was based on $$ (the Recaros are $2k. yikes!) and no IOM in '14.

This look will grow on people wait and see. People say they like the pre '14 tail lights better. But this is just familiarization I think. If I really look at the rear of my car the tail lights look kind of weird and the rear of the car way too tall.

Also keep in mind the look of the '14s (and '15s) are getting us ready for the look of Camaro6 which will be less retro and more sleek. Enough of the past already.

Is the other reason $80K+? Looks are not the Z/28 message, so if you were going to buy it based on looks you would be unhappy anyway, even if you liked the looks.

BTW these are fugly looks like, most certainly not the Z/28:

That's like jumping out of a plane without a parachute cause you didn't like the peanuts. They could have my little pony tail lights on the Z/28 and I would still get one if I could afford it.

Not a fan of the silver or vert myself. I don't hate it, it's just not one of my favorite! That being said. Why the heck didn't I wait a few more months to buy my 1lt? Im really considering the 14 1le! Trying to convince my wife. I love the 10-13 and the 14 refresh look! Good job!

It just doesn't look right to me for some weird reason. For me personally It'd need to be way more aggressive looking. I'd be interested to see a 1LE or Z/28 in a vert even though that's not going to happen.

Is it just me or does the body line above the rear quarter panel lines look a lot more defined or it is just a silver think?

There are so many great comments here that I want to quote most of them. That would take a lot of effort so I will just say: Yes I would absolutely take the Z28 even if it had my little pony tail lights, I think the 2014 will grow on us in time, I think the front is progressive while the rear is boxy and boring yet more traditional Camaro, the redesign as it is makes me perfectly content with my 2012, people who say "I just don't like verts" are DBs, and the dude who gave the finger should be fired. I think that covers it.

Just the silver and the lighting I think.
