Challenger has looked pretty much the same since 2007. A two or three year headstart over 5th Gen.

Keeping this thread alive. Yesterday I spotted a Bright Yellow SS Coupe with black stripes travelling westbound on El Camino Real at Sunnyvale Ave. in Sunnyvale at about 5:15PM.

I see a black 6th Gen SS every day when I pick up my son from school.

I feel pretty alone in my town! A few 5th gen, both yellow, some challengers, a hellcat. Other than that I don't see 6th gens without going a good 30 miles

I'm pretty sure I saw this one again yesterday going north bound on Sunnyvale-Saratoga Road in Sunnyvale. But now it has a full wrap, looked like a light grey with a black, possibly carbon fiber, roof and aftermarket wheels. I glanced over as I passed it on the right and it looked like the same driver.

I've seen just a few others over the past couple of weeks.
- Summit White SS stopped at the light on south bound Mary Ave. at El Camino Real in Sunnyvale, CA, which proceeded to make an illegal U turn when the light turned green
- Black SS on Stevens Creek Blvd near Westfield Valley Fair Mall in San Jose, CA
- Black RS (IIRC) with chrome aftermarket wheels on the De Anza Blvd exit from north bound 280 in Cupertino, CA

Spotted a white ZL1 1LE here in Detroit on Woodward Av. a few days ago.... The wing and black hood caught my eye.

Still waiting to see a ZL1 or ZL1 1LE in the wild. Saw a Krypton Green RS yesterday afternoon on my way home from work as I was getting off of southbound Interstate 280 at the De Anza Blvd exit in Cupertino.

Vert weather is here, I would plan on seeing a lot more of them. Also, a lot more of them being sold.

But that being said, it has been pretty cool lately as when I drive into LA, I get a bunch of people who snap pics and tag me in the photos on IG. Never thought that would happen.

I wonder if it is because so many Gen 6 buyers are first time Camaro buyers. This is one thing that I think the Gen 5 Hate Mob gets right. Gen 6, with its higher tech content and Euro-influenced styling appeals to people who have never considered a Camaro before. They don't know "the wave". Happened a bit with Corvette C6 and also C7.

I'm one of those first timers, but still wave or give a thumbs up to other Camaro owners when I see them.
