Nothing is "real" in marketing. Old grampa Fittipaldi wheeling a Stinger around an oval is not remotely "real". But hey he is likely too old to get a gig from Ferrari or Lambo...albeit i bet he would rather advertise those offers instead. As an aside, MT recent review of Stinger wasnt exactly stellar btw.

As far as new styling directions, how about them apples: new Lexus flagship for your sensory enjoyment. I know this is off topic but i couldnt resist...

Wow, it looks great in red. They really should push more bright colors that give a good contrast to the blacked out parts.

I felt free to correct the brightness of some dark pictures, I hope it's ok for you

It will be interesting if they adopt the styling bits seen herr on a 1le mule across the ss line or make them specific to 1le only...

Sorry, I still don’t like it. Can’t get past “missing half the bumper” feeling. Someone said that it looks like it was in an accident.

The bright contrast only makes it worse for me. I can't unsee it now. I believe the designers truly lost sight of what Camaro is to many. I just cant take the almost finished look. Oh and that Lexus posted above looks cool.

It’s like it’s in a shop with the bumper removed to be replaced. A refresh gone really wrong, I hope they will fix it next year

The sad part is the these types of changes offen indicate clues to the future. Im also worried ,because the new Silverado has a similar treatment, that the entire line is heading for this overall look.

Chevy needs those ads to sell to non enthusiasts, not us.
Your right, I built my GT due to price, not brand. For an R/T pony my base mustang has been "Transformed" into a real enthusiast performer. If you can drive, you know how a car should be set up. We are not "commuters".
Nice views on my "Commute", I drive daily 90 miles round trip as a medical tech. Yea, it's cool to be a driver on payroll.

I think they know it’s a huge fail. 90% of forum posts, Youtube videos and their Facebook page comments are against it. I hope they listen.

Before I even saw the facelift I was already planning on getting a '19 1LE in red, those pics just reaffirm my decision, that red is awesome with the blackout.
