Thanks for posting the video. I believe it's telling that in most videos that we've seen of the refresh in a public setting that there aren't many crowds of people looking at it. In this particular video there's basically no one around the cars at all but you can see people off in the foreground.

There's barely anybody in that video period. And a video says nothing of the context of the video. Maybe the person shooting waited until everyone checked it out and left to get clean shots. You don't have to like the refresh, but it's silly to make assumptions to reinforce your own opinions on it.

That’s the most ridiculous post I’ve read about the refresh yet.

Congratulations

I like the refresh. You assumed wrongly. Fall way back.

That's my exact thought lol...the bumper is basically a shelf. Could come in handy to set your beer cans on it while doing a detail. There's no angle it's just flat.

I hope I can find some pictures of the Garnet one that was there too.

Looks better with the black stripe to tie in to the bumper.

Yes, please quote me. Don't under estimate me, I have a long history of being right about things like this.

Even the new Blazer has a better front bumper and grill than the upcoming Camaro. The bowtie is closer to the middle of the grill, not tacked on to the bumper down below.

Why didn't they place the bowtie emblem down below way under the grill on the Blazer?

I think GM wants the 6th gen to fail. They can use that as an excuse to cancel the car again like the 4th gen. That way, they can sell more CUV's and trucks. Heck, the new Blazer even looks like a CUV version of the Camaro.

If I was in a market for a Camaro right now, that front bumper would steer me clear away from the SS. I would NOT want to upgrade to a V8 model unless it was the ZL1.

If GM is in business to sell cars, they should not be trying to alienate existing owners. If anything, they should want existing owners to want to upgrade to the newer refreshed model.

I predict when the '19 SS comes out, it'll be a short cycle and they will change it once again before the 7th gen ultimately comes out. In 2 years or less, they'll move the emblem back into the grill.

The new A10 won't be able to make up for it. Now, if it had the A10 and a nice bump in power for '19, that might keep it steady in sales but they didn't. Sales on the SS will suffer .

Yeah, I’ve studied for a while looking at different colors, angles, etc. Different strokes for different folks, as they say, and my personal opinion is just “yuck”....GM has successfully managed to neuter any appearance of aggression from the front end. The entire ‘19 Camaro lineup looks like it was designed by Enterprise or Budget.

Nahh, i would leave the 19' front on the SS the way it is. The black front end for me would go well with all the other black parts i would incorporate into the car. The new storm trooper is coming!!!
