I wonder if one of the aftermarket license plate frame cameras would be compatible with the Camaro software, wiring and mirror - or maybe you could swap the Camaro camera into the frame. There also...

You should take a close look at the inside of the trunklid. On the ‘16-‘18 cars, the holes for all the spoilers are predrilled. I have a friend who’s swapping an SS spoiler for a 1LE spoiler, and...

Sorry, but you can put your tiny hand into that flowtie hole and touch the grill. It’s fully open and adds to the airflow. Who’s going to be first to complain about the solid bowtie in the center of...

It’s actually about 6-7 inches of additional airflow, and in extreme conditions (track or high ambient temperatures) it helps. Even though it flows into the same area as the upper grill, Chevy didn’t...

That’s not a fake grill.

Although it looks dorky, the panel/grill directs the incoming air exactly where the engineers want it to go for aero reasons. If left wide open, all that high-pressure air...

The testing on the original flowtie showed that it added a small but significant amount of cooling air. I don’t know about testing of the ‘19s, but any additional hole in the front end should...

I finally got to see new ‘19s parked in a line with several ‘18s, so I could compare them side-by-side. Sorry, but there’s no getting around it - the ‘19s are not good-looking cars.

The front-end...

Back in the early days the Z/28 was a well-balanced, affordable package designed specifically for Trans Am racing; the 1SS 1LE fits that spot now and competes with the GT 350, not the GT 350R. The...

For people who don’t know what it is (“How come you painted the hood of your SS flat black?”) I describe my 1LE as the “1LE Track Package.” They seem to get that, even if they don’t know exactly what...

Here’s a line from the Mazda news release about the 2019 Miata that could/should have been used by Chevrolet to describe the 2019 Camaro (if there were substantive changes to support it, that is):...

Exactly - and that is the problem. With sales where they are, the car needs more than a refresh to attract new buyers. Both the Mustang and Challenger have new models and are really promoting them....

The bigger problem with the ‘19 refresh is it doesn’t go far enough to differentiate itself from the ‘16-‘18 cars. A facelift and a buttlift (plus a trick rearview mirror on the upper-level versions)...

I agree the ‘18 is more desirable from a looks standpoint, which is why I bought my 1LE now instead of waiting for a ‘19. But minor fascia changes don’t make one more valuable than the other. Check...
