Still don’t know how I feel about the tail lights. This video is what changed my mind https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2wT_ZjjmfUE

I like it too, the front end looks like the Charger.

I think the snow covering up some of the new fanged face is a big help. Didn't think I wanted to see any more snow for a while, but in this case it's a plus...

I think it is ok

Well, at least with this 1LE prototype you can clearly see the flowtie is held in by clips. So a flowtie delete or blackout would be extremely easy.

The car looks really sharp. The blackout on the grill is more tolerable to me every day, but it's hard to overcome 50+ years of the bowtie being on the main grill. I would very strongly consider getting a body shop to paint it. I'm pretty sure the blackout must be its own specific body hardware part, so aftermarket options will likely be popular, even if the install process is annoying and requires bumper cover removal.

The 1LE "matte black" application to the bumper bar, flowtie, taillights (mule tails meant to confuse when under camo -- but still look better from the side) are all an improvement over the gloss and chrome of the standard SS pieces.

But the SS 1LE still needs to be offered with the automatic.

I like it. Let’s see a grey 1LE!

In full disclosure. I tend to embrace change in general and HATE people that dwell in the past.

I had a German boss that said “anything older than 4 years is a piece of junk” after I did a ground up restoration of a Bandit Trans Am. He was right because I hated driving it once my daily was a 04 GTO.

The Camaro keeps getting better.

Then be prepared to spend the rest of your life wasting energy hating a lot of people based on their taste.

I don’t judge a car by it’s year of production.

As for the Camaro 2019. I like it.

But won’t change my future already old piece of junk 2018 Camaro for it.

@Koldunic. Reread what you quoted. The wasted hate energy here is coming from those stuck in the past

Hating for obscure reason is waste of energy for me.

What is being stuck in the past? Liking the 2016-2018 over the 2019?

Anyway.

As I said. I do like the 2019. More and more

Edit: I agree that hating the 2019 is a waste of energy.
