2016 Camaro drops some camouflage near the Nurburgring! 9/29/14 - Page 10

I was really hoping for more of the drastic change type renderings that were going around. This looks more like another 2010 refresh then it does new gen. Glad I waited though, looks like ill just working a killer deal on a 2015 convertible. This is highly disappointing to say the least. I had such high hopes for this car too. Damn!

I'm willing to bet it out performs the 5th gen in their respective trim levels in performance. When it's revealed in full detail in Detroit next year, we can determine if the design was a failure or not.

It's not that bad. Hopefully the funny rear wing and rounded hood won't make it to production. Love the wheels! Hoping they are 18 inchers instead of the 20's. Otherwise, will need the Z28 fender lips to make up for the smaller tires and wheels I will put on.
Sad though, as it will use struts in front again as they are not the best for handling.

Personally, I'm going to try and avoid forming an opinion on what it looks like until I see one that GM decides to show us.

You guys can't be serious

If you can not pick up inherent details in the form of the car now, well it's time to visit your local optician. That "camo" doesn't fool me in the least bit as to what is underneath it at the present time.

I do agree with others that the lights in front and back are not the final version. I have doubts the hood is also because under the original "camo" we saw a louvered vented hood, so the one shown in this version might not be the last iteration.

I'm betting by the time Thanksgiving rolls around, we'll be seing the full reveal of the 6th gen, then the full

and

will commence. Thus leaving the sales results to determine the success of this evolution.

I think they've proven they can make the Camaro handle well.

Great catch, that definitely looks like it's partially masked.

I'm wondering what other styling cues are being borrowed from the C7, maybe similar styled taillamps?

that would be cool.

Can Chevrolet just go ahead and rename the camaro "bumblebee" and be done with it? I mean how long can you milk a bunch of over the top Michael Bay films?
I'm disappointed with what I see so far....

And I bet the new generation continues to beat the mustang and challenger every month in sales. The best type of advertising for GM are the Transformers movies.

Don't like wings. Rather have spoilers like the Z28, ZL1 and 1LE.

camaro1350 · 09-29-2014, 06:35 PM

So far, it's a no go for me. Unless it changes when it is fully revealed I think it be a couple steps backwards.

I'm sure they'll be offering spoilers for certain packages, and they always seem to offer blade spoilers as an RPO option.

Yep, that's exactly what jumped at me when I first saw it.

Love it. Looks like a mean front end and cool taillights. Hood has vents too.
