I see the resemblance. That design actually grew on me, I think it looks good.

Coming from a 17 Mustang I watched the Mustang guys go through this with the 18's before they came out. Once they were on the lots they were melting over them. Watch once you see them rolling down the street.....things may change.

The refresh base looks like a droopier 2010-2013 base.

I got this response when I said it looks like a Charger... because it can't possibly look similar to anything else but a Camaro.
So I'll pass it on replacing the Charger with your whale. lol

After looking at the photo of the latest Transformer car beside the photo of the 19 SS, I realize there is no front facia refresh for the SS. We saw it years ago and I hated it then. Focus group must have been 12 year olds that saw the movie. Hope they have had enough time to save $$ and now have a license.

"Melting" over them is taking it a bit far. The guys who like them in person were the guys who were neutral about them online. Not many of the refresh haters flip-flopped. The vast majority on M6G still prefer the pre-refreshed Mustang.

I turned my 2015 GT in this past weekend and looking at a few 2018's in person only confirmed my dislikes. The hood is too flat and dull, the headlights are too low and look too small for such a broad, overly rounded face. The one thing it has going for it that the refreshed Camaro doesn't, is the rear is improved or at least not ruined.

Ford dropped the ball; Chevy stuck a knife in it. Fingers crossed for year-end Stingray deals.

It looks a lot better than the 2019 SS.

This must be Riverside Blue in the "shade". That color really seems to change in the different light levels.

The v6/i4 styling is growing on me, especially with that picture, but the SS still puts me off. I do like the rear a lot though.
