too many bowties...not a single CAMARO logo..
I know the badge on the fenders are the camaro heritage symbol and I know there is a camaro logo placed on the headlights, but why GM has to overload the camaro with bowties? The front end of the new camaro is amazing, but that bowtie could have been replaced by an SS or even a combination between the heritage camaro logo and the bowtie, the rear of the car could had a big camaro Letters (Like the 4th gen), the SS badges seems to be put on the car at last minute at the most awkward and random place possible, I DO LOVE EVERYTHING in this new Camaro, but this is a big turn off from me. (The camaro and the Corvettes are the top dogs from Chevy they don't need bowties.)
Why this is the only muscle car I see this happening?, the mustang got the horse logo everywhere and a big nice GT at the back and those badges are part of the design of the car they are big and can be seen easy, unlike the SS badges, also the charger has only 1 nice big dodge badge at the back and a lovely challenger badge at the front. I dont want to be a troll, I really love the car but this is something I never liked from GM doing with the camaro (5th and 6th gen) Edited...

Two bow ties is being loaded with them? Or are there some I missed? Maybe the wheel centers?It says Camaro in 7 places that I know of. One in each headlight, each door sill, the new Camaro fender emblems and the steering wheel center.

Rather have the bow tie than a bunch of SS badges. GM will never make everyone happy in this aspect.

First, it's NOT a muscle car.
2nd, I believe you have the brand identifier on the grill, on the decklid and on steering wheel. 3 places. Pretty much industry standard. Why are you complaining and why is 3 (just like every other car) overload?

You made me check. You have ONLY 2 Bow Ties. Front and Rear Camaro heritage emblem on the fender. Very CLEAR CAMARO on the horn pad. Now I'm really not sure what you are complaining about.

Um...
It seems like there are only 2 bowties..do the center caps of the wheels have bowties or are they SS's? |

Just sayin but yes, complaining about the badging...seriously? Are they supposed to build an awesome car and not mark it? Besides...de-badging is easy.

And FYI..the Mustang doesn't have that many ponies anymore. One of my coworkers has a new EB premium and it has a grill pony, a rear deck pony, steering wheel and the "Mustang-Since 1964" badge on the dash.
Pretty much the same count of corporate logos as the Camaro. Heck the Mustang actually lost a pony in the windshield trim..going from a pony to a Ford logo. |

I don't care for them either. The corvette is a "Chevy", No bow ties on it. Either way I don't care that much. I'll take them right off.

Ok, it's official. Non data based complaining.
You have Camaro on the Steering wheel You have Camaro on the door sills (x2) You have a Camaro heritage emblem on the fender (x2) And bow ties on the grille and decklid. Seems Camaro and Camaro heritage emblems out number bow ties 5 to 2.
