My thoughts on what the 6th Gen Camaro will look like...
I just remembered two concept vehicles I saw last year at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show and now seeing the new Bumble Bee Camaro, it all makes sense now. The vehicles I'm thinking of are these.... The 130R or the TRU140S. To me, we might be seeing some hints on what the 6th Gen looks like. I can only upload one pic, but let me know your thoughts!

The Bumblebee Camaro probably wasn't created by Chevy at all, but by a movie prop crew and visual effects crew.

I'm sure Chevy was involved somehow in it

GM knows people love the 5th gen Camaro's styling. I'm thinking gen 6 will be similar but trimmer, due to the shared platform with the ATS. If the 5th gen is a modernized '69, then the 6th gen will be a modernized '68 (slightly smaller but still the retro-look that we love).

I would say the Gen5 Camaro is NOT retro. Sure it has some resemblance to the early Camaros, but the Gen5 is definitely a thoroughly modern looking car IMO. If the Gen6 drops the distinctive styling for a "modern" look, then GM loses all it gained with the Gen5.
I still think the Transformers 4 is the Gen6, ie 2014 Gen5 cut to fit on an ATS chassis with some updates. |

I would love to see the 6th Gen look like the 5th but with the smaller Body should look better. Just improving the design. Like bigger trunk opening and better visibility.

I agree. The Camaro isn't really retro at all. The only part that looks retro is the side around the window if that makes sense haha.
