Too many variables for me to say yay or nay on that one just yet. I'm married and have a house, but by then there could be one or two little ones running around, and we may be looking to move into a different place...who knows?? I got to keep my priorities in check.

But lets say I was in a position to buy. Well then it really comes down to looks. Yes performance and features is key also, but looks is the big thing. Like others here have said, the 5th gen blew the roof off in terms of design back then. If the 6th gen is an all new design, they are going to have the blow the roof off again, otherwise if its just a noticable improvment but similar to the 5th gen that could be enough to get me to trade up as well.

Frankily I'm pretty much already convinced the 6th gen will be superior in terms of performance. Just look at the ATS and what it is doing. Its a hair smaller...several hundred lbs lighter and already pretty quick in V6 form.

Just throwing it out there, if the next Mustang or Baracuda blow me away, I might just go that route.

If they gave the option for a Turbo and the price was right, I might. But I have put too much time and money into the one that I have now. But then, it's another excuse to start modding another Camaro.

Right now I'd say absolutely not! I find each new "special edition" fuglier than the last. I don't rule anything out but I just don't have much faith left in GM to build an exciting car. Even if they do the bow tie will delaminate and look like hell.

I probably won't buy a 6th gen but I do plan to keep my 5th gen forever. The next car I buy is going to be a SUV for sure.

Just not enough solid info on gen 6 to make that call. I wouldn't rule it out though.

Any speculation on a 6th Generation Vert?

I'll probably buy one if it looks as good as the gen 5's. I'll be buying the 2015 Chevelle first though, fingers crossed.

At the moment not very likely as my current ride is only a few months old. Ill probally skip the 6th gen and wait for a 7th gen.

Depending on looks yes I'd like to get hopefully a 50th anniversary Z-28 to go with my 1st gen and 5th gen

Does a car really get much better looking than this? I love my 5th Gen and I'm going to be broke if I try to get anything else.
