Overall, I love the car!
I believe that these are still pre-production models and with comments about the emblem and other small items, they will change it up. And like you said, black it out and move along.

Can anyone black out the flowtie via Photoshop to see how it would look?

I don’t think they will change it. They didn’t change the badge location with the original 6th gen.

Agree with the Catfish......then it died....i hope this wont lead to the same fate. The 6th Gen was awesome looking already. A few tweaks and it could have been perfect - hell, the ZL1 front is the best of them all so you know they can make a good looking product. I only hope that with all these images being computer generated, the real product will look better in real life.

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.
Trouble is the 4 cyl turbo 1LE will appeal to a very small niche market, Camaro drastically needs a bigger market following with different better combos that will appeal to that market. The refresh is good, but just not enough positive changes to anything especially in comparison to the 2018 mustang refresh and all the great changes that were done.

Wow, looks great and the A10 on the SS. I'm seriously considering just waiting for the 2019s to start production. Glad life intervened and I didn't get one yet. Then again, even the civic type-r has grown on me, especially the front end and ever since I spent a few hours driving one.

Meant as a reference to GM designs in plain sight for years, not the style.

Just the opposite, the 93-97 nose was butt ugly, the 98 -2002 was a much better looking car to go along with the glorious LS1 over the POS LT1 in that time frame.
