GM responding to criticism?
They are the same as the satin steel one posted the other day. Except the 1LE is highlighted with snow pack.

The ones on the white SS 1LE above seem to have a shine to them like more of a chrome molding or body colored painted if you look at the video a bit. Maybe im just getting old LOL

Again there are people that will use the car to do both. Take me as an example, wife has an SUV and I will be in the market for a new vehicle soon.
Got kid #1 on the way. In theory I could get a Camaro since the wife has the big suv. Here is my problem though, I don't want to always be forced to take her car to do everything with the kid. I am an active person in the summer, I play softball, I play golf and sometimes I have to pick up teammates friends. That means bat bags, golf bags and other gear got to go in the car. Those are some areas where the Mustang and Challenger over clear advantages over the Camaro. No one is saying make it a family hauler but I think they could in the 7th gen try to make it a bit more liveable.



So your saying they should just say screw you to people that might need to haul kids or have some usability in their car? Great strategy lol
GM used to have a perfect car for you called Chevy SS.
4 doors room for 5 and a big trunk. I hope you bought one?
Except for a mammoth Chellenger which weighs more than most 4 door sedans and officially provides seating for 5 neither Camaro or Mustang will satisfy your needs. They are sports cars not family/gear haulers by design.
The 2+2 is there to serve in a pinch...and as such it does its job. Zero complaints here.

Looks like a SS 1Le with its chin spoiler in camo on white to me .

No I didn't buy a Chevy SS. To much $ for me to spend and the timing just didn't work out. Guy on my team has one though, loves it. That's his DD so his Vette can be his toy lol.

So your saying that anyone with an active lifestyle shouldn't consider Camaro if they have to daily drive it, got it.

When I had my Mustang, all of the things I listed above (except the kid part) was no problem. I could have my softball bag, and my golf bag in my trunk all summer and it wasn't a problem. All I am saying is for the 7th gen maybe they could find a way to make the trunk a tad bigger maybe a bit closer to the car it's in direct competition with that would make the case for someone like me a hell of a lot easier with the little lady.

Based on the feedback by the press and consumers, you would be in the minority thinking that, but, of course, it is subjective.

What you see in the refresh Camaro you will start seeing in other cars , including the new Mustang GT500 , Like it not
What model BMW is this? Please show us the eight year old BMW the Guilia is supposedly a knock-off of.

I do agree it is always harder to design something fresh rather than a refresh of the past.

Aesthetics are a matter of personal taste, so to each his own.

Having said that, the Giulia (sp?) is a beautiful car. Very tasteful design.

Is Camaro trunk so much smaller vs the Stang's?
Granted, it shrunk a wee bit due to a new platform, but i just dont recall the Mustang offering much more room to speak of (and i had 3 in the past). In any case i do get your point but i hope they continue to chop its weight evenbit means less utility et al. Just my perspective.
