Who is gonna trade their gen 5 Camaro for a gen 6?

While I think the gen 6 Camaros look really cool, I honestly prefer the 10-15 GEN 5 style at this time. MY 15 2ls is my very first Camaro and I love it! I think the gen 5 looks more retro and I'm big Into the retro thing. I really like the kinda boxy and square look that these cars have. I have previously owned 2 2007 Mustangs and I dig the retro designs. I understand that it is time for something new but how many of you are gonna stick with the gen 5 for at least a few years?

I'll see what happens and see if there is a replacement or an equivalent for the ZL1 and even then there are no guarantees that I'll switch over to the 6th gen unless the next ZL1 or equivalent absolutely blows the socks off the current ZL1!

For 200lbs and 650hp no way and I'll just lower mine add a few suspension goodies and bump it up to 800'ish HP. But if it is substantial faster and better then I'll be looking at the 2017 anniversary edition in a ZL1 or equivalent.

I may look, but the 5th just reminded me too much of my 1st gen to give up on one a second time...

I'm keeping mine. It's just too much fun. Plus, once the 6th gen hits the road, I think the prices will come down on a lot of the mods for our cars. I can't wait. Each day, our cars are closer to becoming classics.

I just got mine recently. So if I do it trade in it won't be for a few years and it'll be for a gen 6 ZL1 if I want one. Too early still to say.

Time will tell. I'm certainly going to consider trading, but probably not until 2017 (50th Anniversary year).

The new interior looks nice but it's not a drastic change on the outside, at least not enough to make me want to trade. Plus mine only has 3400 miles on it and is barely broken in, so it wouldn't make sense financially.

Not happening, I have had her for 5 years and only put about 12,000 miles on. This one is a keeper!

No way. I've modded this thing to suit my needs and am done for now. If anything, I may look into getting a more classic Chevy to play with next. I'd have to make some garage modifications in order to fit it in with the Camaro and Harley though.
