Sorry man I don't own a 6th gen yet but I do not like the refresh one bit. I don't like how they bring the fender into the grille of the Tahoe and the new refresh takes that to a new level.
If the ZL1 needed a new nose for better cooling, I have no doubt you'd be totally cool with it. The new nose on the SS provides better cooling and better aero, and for me function generally wins over form.

No I totally love the refresh, because it eliminated any remorse I may have had.

100% GM is doing what the Mustang did and making the Camaro more "boring" so that people will buy it.

They want an I4 that gets 35+ MPG for <$30k but their car looks like it's worth $50k.

Same shit the S550 did and their sales skyrocketed, just it was the I4 and v6s that went way up, not the GT. I expect the same shit from the Camaro refresh, especially with the I4T.

What’s worse........... dwindling Camaro sales. Thanks a lot Chevy Camaro team, this is a big let down.

I was thinking of getting a 2019, but not any more. The only savings grace is if the Camaro teams pulls out the Z28 for late 2019 or 2020. But not holding my breath.

Just fits with the attack on masculinity going on these days. Beta males are in, dont you know?

GM is not doing what the Mustang did. The Mustang keeps getting better and better looking while the Camaro took a steep dive in the looks department by getting hit with a huge ugly stick for 2019.

Can anyone here photoshop that 2019 pic and get rid of the black paint on the front bumper and move the Chevy emblem back into the middle of the grill? I think that would improve the looks by a huge margin.
