Since GM has been getting so loose with names, I'm surprised the LT1 isn't called Z28(or Berlinetta). I mean there is a subcompact trailblazer and a unibody FWD Blazer now. Maybe the GMC trailblazer will be called "Jimmy".

I am one of the many that still and always will strongly dislike the front bumper, swim goggle taillights, "twisty" spoke wheels, and overdone rear bumper (that hard line indention that runs along it). I've seen the 2019s in person and they look just as awful as they do in the pictures. The 2020 looks a tiny bit better in the front, but still awful. I also really dislike the 5th gen camaro and hate the 2008-2019+ dodge challenger's exterior styling. Just opinions!

Again, this is just my opinion, so if you read this, don't get offended. I'm just a guy making a post because I'm bored and looking through the forum.

^I'm glad GM listened, I'm a fan of Camaro no matter what they look like and as long as they keep making them I'll keep buying them. I'm happy with my 19 1LE with no regrets, but do hope this change is for the better.

This ☝🏼

I’ve owned a 3rd gen, two 4th gens, a 5th gen and now a 6th gen. I will keep buying Camaros as long as they keep making them. Can’t stop now, I have the Camaro disease! 😎👍🏻

Won't ever happen, 2 stage paint. Riverside blue is close alternative to Chevy.

The SS sales have been bad, as I've been sayin. I'm beyond thrilled Chevy is fixing the SS front.

No worries 2019ers, you should be able to switch out the front clip.

Original poster said bug eyes, Wrong! They are goggles in clear/smoked. Red ones much, much better.

No such term as a 6 banger, good try trying to lump the V6 with a 4 banger.

It with come with the LT1 V8

Why should anyone who purchased a 2019 be worried? People who bought them did because they liked it, or else what's the point in buying something you dont like...I wouldnt necessarily assume all folks who bought a 2019 are immediately regretting their purchase, or wanting to go change their's to look like a 2020.

The 70s were an awful time. Let's try not to repeat them.
I didn't say the 70s were easy times, even though i have to wonder where we would be if it wasn't for the steps that were taken to better the earth then. The 70s were tough not awful ,learn from the past don't fear it or hate it .

Why should they switch when they have the better looking front end ? Just because the masses except the cookie cutter look don't make it better ,Mustang buyers prove that every month.

I've heard that they have a GMC version of the new Chevy Blazer coming soon and it would be called "Jimmy".

As for Berlinetta, that thought crossed my mind as well, but that was an attempt at a "Luxury Camaro" if I remember correctly.

I hear there is a 12 step program for that
