Newest 2016 Camaro SS prototype spied with best look at tail lights yet (April 17) - Page 2

Total photoshop on the lights, nothing to see here.

What really gets me is the amount of overhang in front of the wheels. As much as I like a lower, longer, sleeker hood, that's just seems like too much car in front of the tires. IDK, could just be the picture.

I'm liking how the styling seems to be. I'm sure this will be a sharp car. One thing I'm not looking though is the huge single muffler.

The divider bars are not consistent car to car. I don't think that breaks will be there

Side by side compare...

I don't think that will be a RS. Have a feeling we may not see a RS this go around. Remember when they said the only thing that would be coming back from the 5th Gen was the "SS" symbol.

I think the statement was the only parts carried over would be the rear bow tie and the SS emblem. They could still have an RS but with a different styled emblem. My opinion was the RS emblem looked too much like the SS emblem from a distance anyway. So that would be a good move in my opinion.

An RS SS is just a red SS...so it could still return. I'm actually pretty positive it will return.

They can't, another company has the rights to the IROC trademark.

A company called IROC AG based out of Switzerland but has offices in the USA. It's a medical supply company. Trade mark issued in 2010.

Pretty sure GM didn't own IROC in the past. It was a licensing fee just like GM paid for Trans Am.

But since there is no race and it isn't using Camaros it would a very useless attempt to grab sales with what amounts to an appearance package. But we all know stickers make a car faster.
