2010-2013 models' taillights were already Corvette inspired.

And those were way better than the 14-15 tail lights.

I really like it. Chevy did say that their new cars will be taking cues from the Vette. We'll see what that means.

They both have round taillights, but the styling detail is totally different. The '72 and '73 Chevelle both have round lights, but looking nothing alike. GM would never put the exact taillights from one car on to another, though Ford sure did with the early '70's Maverick and Pinto.

The Corvette brought the round taillights into Chevy design. The Chevelle and Camaro both took the styling later on. No one said anything about using the exact same lights, but you can't honestly say they are not inspired by the look of the C3 Corvettes.

Yup. Idk what's going on down there but i think these lights or a design very similar would really compliment what I see the camo cars have going on in the rear.

The OP post has lights taken from the C7 Corvette onto a Camaro. That's all I'm getting at.

That whole rear end is ugly on a Camaro. It won't happen and it shouldn't happen

LOBBS · 02-09-2015, 01:05 PM

Yes. I love this.

Ah I understand your point now.

TJ91 · 02-09-2015, 01:50 PM

Yes 100% because we know GM will tweak it to make it work and look great.

2010-2013 Camaro design gave me true hope in GMs styling department, enter in the C7 and 14 front end (not rear IMO sorry)

Gm can do it right, especially when they aren't rushing like the 6th gen.

I hope they give us the C7 tails because we all had assumed that those were the tails the 5th gen would have evolved into before the c7 came out

iSHOOTtheMOON · 02-22-2015, 12:21 AM

Just made this. What do you think?

newb · 02-22-2015, 02:51 AM

I hope that is not the direction they are going. But i think you may be correct. That would be an evolution of the 14-15 lights. And I still cannot get myself to like the rear on those cars. I have tried.
