So while I agree that of course we don't want some ugly performance monstrosity (i.e. Nissan Juke GTR, really what were they thinking), people are making way to much a deal about the looks being a deciding factor.

Ahhh...that was my very 1st car at the age of 16 in 1974....should have kept that one - 1964 GTO, 389 Tri power, turbo hydromantic 400, black on black.

That's not about the Camaro.
That's the announcement about the Malibu reveal.

Really? And who told you that? We have not announced when we will reveal the next gen Camaro.

Just so silly to judge something you cannot make out the details on..

very good point -some people get hysterical with CLEAR pics - and then change their minds when they see the car in person.

If I had a nickel for everyone who hated the 5th gen when the first pictures hit the web, I'd be filthy rich.....and look how it turned out. Wildly successful.

The haters are always the most vocal minority

Whose definition is this?

"Lightest small car......" That sure wasn't the Chevelle which I think we all consider a classic muscle car. Or the GTO? Again a classic muscle car. Those were mid size cars by most standards, not the smallest and lightest.

Same thing with the 2014 taillights. When they saw photo's, most everyone hated them. After they saw them in person?......
