That thing is ugly. For the first time, I think the RS looks better than the SS. The SS looks like an electric razor. This maybe the worst looking Camaro ever.

Mustang guys thought they had a bad refresh with that new front facia, but nope, looks like mustangs will continue to outsell the camaro.

Who approves this stuff over there? They must have all kinds of data showing trends that are popular and what people like. Idk, some of the renderings by people on here were better than this. Did they talk to any real camaro enthusiasts?

You know how this is going to play out right? Everyone hates it but then once people see it in person, people will love it.

I just know that I am glad i bought a 2018. I came get over those taillight goggly eyes.

The 4th gen Camaro looks far better than this.

Very first inpression.... OH MY GOD, WHAT THE F**K DID THEY DO AND WHY?!!!!!!! After reading a few pages of comments and coming back to it, I'm kinda on the "Meh" side now. Im definitely a MUCH BIGGER fan of the '16-'18 appearance. I think I can eventually get used to the front. Again though, why would you want your Silverado and Camaro to look identical? I like it on the Silverado, not so much here. The tail lights I cant do. The current ones are much better.

On pure looks, I would take an LS1 4th gen over this. It’s like they slapped a Charger front fascia with BMW lower grille on and called it good.

Paint the black bumper body color and move the bowtie to the upper grill and it looks pretty darn good. Rendering someone did in the other thread.

I think by GM moving the bowtie to the top grill, will change a lot of minds around here. If not, black out the flowtie with some vynil or paint and move it along.

Overall, I love the car!

So the 93-97 models were 'OK"? But one of the best looking models(98-02) were awful?

New refresh is horrible, the front end of that car looks like some kind of kia or hyundai. Today is truly a sad day.

I'm seeing so many posts on FB that, "I'm glad I kept my '17 Camaro" or the like and I remember this being said when the 6th gen first came out. I liked when all the 5th and 6th gen cars came out, and I like this one. I like that more options are available, especially for the turbo with the 1LE. Give it time and I'm sure it will be okay. The fact that the performance of all the gens have been hard to beat, by either Ford or Dodge, makes it appealing to me. We'll see what happens when for trim levels come out.
