None the less, the styling was really something I wanted to discuss with fans of the car, to "open my eyes", if you will. And the responses have been great. I really appreciate that. I guess I'm considered part of the Forum now, in spite of my Mustang ownership. Maybe that's why I was invited to the reveal. As luck would have it, the Ford guys still see me in a good light as well, and I've been invited to a track day test of the upcoming GT350 variants. Some days it's good to be a car guy.

It defiantly looks like a hodge pudge of design...no flow. It's not in one word, sleek. It's not beautiful either. Too many creases; front, hood sides, rear and roof. The top of the car (cabin area) does not flow with the rest of the body sides. It looks added-on. The crease from the side of the hood to under the side windows separates the top cabin area too much from the body side, making it look chunky and bloated in the middle from roof to the rockers. The back looks to busy and plasticky. The protruding creases on the front-end on either side don't match with anything else on the car. The hood...um...just no. Too many creases and the nostrils, just a bad idea. The wing spoiler is not ever gonna look good on a Camaro.
I've always been a Camaro fan, however the new GT350 is a much cleaner and sleeker looking design (the Flat Crank engine is really sweet). The C7 is the first Corvette to catch my attention also a sleek design (with a few too may creases here and there).
And the 5Gen Camaro is a beautiful design with great flow, so what happened 6Gen?
