Hell the software and computer systems in these cars alone will limit their life on earth. Try to find a computer to run a floppy disk and hope the information is still good if you do. What we will see are cars that dont run or cant be driven just siiting in collections to view. What will be the worth in that? Grant it, many collector cars do that down, but most of the high dollar ones all run and can. I dont see the point in talking future value of a disposal product.

All true.

Didnt the camoflauge 1LE have a matte bumper with a matte bowtie? Yes, its hollow but the chrome edge was blacked out if I remember correctly. Shouldn't be difficult to black out the chrome edge of the flowtie.

If you look at some of the up close flowtie pictures from camarofest, the chrome flowtie goes down into the grille a ways, so you would have to somehow vinyl all of that otherwise chrome would be showing upon closer look. IF you painted or plastidipped, that would be easier. Also it appears that the 1LE's do not come with blacked out tie, but as others have mentioned im sure the aftermarket companies will take care of that.

Idk, not feeling it. It just looks off to me. It's hard to make radical changes when adding to a design that wasnt originally designed with them. The original 6th gen design was designed as a cohesive unit. Anything other than minor tweaks would most likely look odd and tacked on which I think is the main issue here since the rest of the car didnt change including the wheels.

I don't get the whole "it looks like a Charger" Thing. Have you even looked at current Camaros and Chargers? If you are searching for similiar styling cues you will always find other cars that have the same visual approach.

That Charger looks way better than all the other Charger pictures. Is that a newer Charger where they stopped blacking out the bumper or an older Charger before they started blacking out the bumper? Either way, I see the resemblance of the front of those pictures and the resemblance of the blacked out Charger and the 2019 SS. I think the reason people notice the resemblance of the black bumper Charger and the 2019 SS is that they share a similarity on something that is more radical and different (and in my and many others opinion uglier).

That car looks amazing. Love it.

This is the combination I’d go with. 2SS 1LE in satin steel gray. One hell of a value!

The cheap looking hood vent ruins the lines there, the nostrils were way better.

Someone will make a plug that goes in the hole, clips from the back, and covers up the chrome. Just like the grille badge on the 2017, really.
