It's merely the taillights for me, I'm just not a huge fan. But, it's growing and I was ready to trade awhile back for a 14' but decided against it for money reasons.

Love my 2011 ! I like the 2014 look and upgrades that come with them! I don't think I will ever get rid of my 2011. I have thought about buying a 2014 in addition but I am really wanting to wait to see what the 6 gen brings.

Im not sure you can even handle a V6 Mustang considering their weight advantage....

I see the 10-13 models Camaro's much the same as I see 05-09 Mustangs. They were seemingly more "retro" if you will. Then the '14's came out and virtually everyone hates the refresh then grows to slowly like/love it. The same went for the 10-12 Mustangs and then again for the 13-14 refresh.

I'm very happy with my '14 and while I have nothing against the previous years, I much, much prefer this model.

I wasn't a huge fan of the '14 at first but I like it now. A 1LE would look good in my garage.

I had both a '13 and a '14 available to me as well when it came time to trading in my blue hardtop, however I insisted on getting a left over '13.....I just love the looks of them.
The '14s are nice but not my taste when it comes to that Gawd awful rear taillight design, the front ends look decent though, but to me the older ones look better.
They are still Camaros and if the '14 style was all they had, I for sure would have gotten one anyways, Im just glad I got my hands on my 13 V6 Vert right off the lot.

I don't hate the 2014 refresh but I could never get past the new squared off diffuser and exposed exhaust cans. I am content with admiring the ones that drive by.

(LE looks amazing in the refresh, though...)

I thought the 2010 should've had the 2014 tail lights when it came out. Took forever to get used to, but now I like my 2011 better.
Got a 17 year old truck, might see if the car can do that.

This ! But I do like how they added a lip spoiler look on the 2014 V6 models !

I'm not a fan of the 2014 refresh, specifically the rear diffuser. I hated the rear lights at first, but now I'm indifferent. I won't be getting a new Camaro, but not because of the looks. My daughter will be old enough to ride in a front seat now, so Corvette here I come.

I don't like the rear tail lights. The front end is pretty cool, I definitely like the hood vent on the 14s. It's a Camaro regardless of the rear lights, so I still give it two thumbs up.
