6th Gen looks better than the 5th Gen.

as a owner of both. They are two different beasts. I love my lighter sportier 6th gen but will always have a spot for my 5th gen RPO 14568. Yes it was bigger and heavier but it was the closest thing to a classic camaro. I went through 7 cars since I stupidly got rid of my 2010. It left such an impact that I ended up getting my 6th gen (due to a push my awesome wife)......

You won't get an argument from me with that , the further we can move from Retro the better it will look .

Purple is a much better color than green.

As far as the seeing out of it, Car & Driver even said they hate writing about it, they know the readers hate reading about it but it's still a problem. What's the saying "if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it must be a duck"
I look at Magazines as just another form of entertainment and that's it. They can be somewhat educational at times and they do spread the insults around in a pretty fair way between the Camaro and Mustang though , they can't afford to lose too many friends .

I'd probably be buying one if you could still get it in Hyper Metallic Blue. What a shame they went with the much inferior Riverside Blue.

I thought the same thing. (Bias because I have a HBM). But it was the best color on the camaro, idk who sat there in a board room and went, “let’s replace HBM”

Exactly. I don't get it. They make some really dumb decisions sometimes.

Riverside Blue Metallic looks pretty nice too. That color glows in the right light!

I love those tail lights, and the clear ones on the Z06 as well.
