FINALLY got to see a Gen 6 in person...

Finally got to see a Gen 6 in person

A very nice car, well worthy of carrying the name Camaro.

I still am more drawn to our Gen 5s!

I still can't see it as a Camaro. It's cool looking, but the name hasn't stuck yet.

2017 1Le would be the only car I'd take the plunge into over the Gen 5

Looks awesome. I am thinking of trading mine for a 2017.

Do it, there are lots of people looking to scoop up good used Gen5's.

It may be faster and lighter, which is always a good thing, but it doesn't have the visual impact that the 5th gen had when it comes to styling. I predict this car will not sell nearly as well as the highly successful 5th gen.

Maybe they'll put it in the new Transformer movie, you must admit it helped drive interest in 5 gen.

Exactly! The Gen 5 just grabs you! I remember when they first came out, I'd stop in the middle of a conversation and break my neck looking when one went by...then I got one! Dreams DO come true!
And the Gen 6 really are smaller...

The 640+hp 2017 ZL-1 sounds promising.

Spec, I look at that pic and "Supra" is the first thing that comes to my mind.

'Cept 640 horsepower... and its not a Supra.

I'm not a wide-body fan... but those 6th gen ZL1's are going to look sharp. Its good to see the Camaro continuing to evolve. Please gad refresh the tail end sooner rather than later on this one. The 2016's... next... the 17's, its starting to set its self apart from the pack. 2018, 2019, 2020? Hmm... I've got my eye on you.

The more I see the 6th gen V6's, the more I think I like the RS front end over the SS's.
