I like the new hood though. The new RS looks pretty good.

19" Refresh is a horrible fail minus the 10 spd auto, and new infotainment center looks pretty nice, I wonder if the 16-18's can get a software update to the new look of the 19 inotainment center?

Black does look better. That may be the color to have for this model.

Black looks good because it hides those atrocious accents, big fail GM.

The camaro fb page is brutal... the admin is only responding to positive comments and there aren't many... lol

"It was designed to exhilerate, glad you like it, stand my for more excitement..." blah blah blah

The car looks much better with the center painted. The black makes the grill are look far too big.

Imagine the SS with a front license plate. Hideous!

as people who've seen me post here for years know i'm one of the biggest Camaro defenders here, if not the biggest. There's never been a Camaro i thought was ugly, never one that i'd say i wouldn't own. GM made that happen today. Whoever is responsible for this, be it 1 person or 100, should be fired . They don't belong in the car business.

They went full Malibu...:( I'm not sure what they were thinking with this refresh.

At least the ZL1 stays the same and you have a sweet blue in the color pallet.

I actually like the appearance of the RS trim better than the current design (the silver convertible featured in the press release materials looks very classy), but I'm not a fan of the SS front fascia because it has too much famial resemblence to the 2019 Silverado. Perhaps, however, it will grow on us and/or look more attractive in person.

Guess we should wait for more real life pics. On the channel it definitely looks way better than on Chevys pics.

Badge placement is still bad of course

That overhead view shows how it really "blends in" with everyday cars to me. Doesn't stand out at all
