2016 seems like a safe bet, but I'm not ready to say that Edmunds is wrong. Car manufacturers usually keep cars to a 5 year cycle, the first three years the car remains about the same. The 4th year usually see an MCE or a Mid-Cycle Enhancement to keep things fresh. As it relates to the Camaro, Chevy did the refresh late. Maybe this was all due to backlogs related to the bankruptcy?

The 5th gens are 10, 11, 12, 13 then the redesigned front and rear fascia for 2014. Also the Camaro was released in the Spring of 2009 as a '10. So the Camaro is already 6 model years old, by the calender year. If Chevy followed the industry standard we'd see a new Camaro in 2015. The only problem is they have already broke from that tradition.

Lastly, if we were going to see an all new Camaro by 2015, which are traditionally released in the fall, wouldn't there have been mule sightings by now? After the mules and the testing there are the inevitable car show showings.

My guess is an all new Camaro, that will be model year 2016 in the Spring of 2015.
