Losing interest?

MikeT · 01-24-2015, 07:17 PM

Inherently flawed poll, yes, as if those who have totally lost interest wouldn't still be here...

Still, with no debut of the Camaro in Detroit, and with the same ho-hum-looking camo'd cars running around, I just don't have as much excitement about this car that I did a couple months ago. Anyone feeling the same?

Hopefully they're making it with a 3rd Gen or 2nd Gen front ! I think that them keep pushing it back to show the car is making it have unbelievable expectations to where it might be a let down in the look department!

Anyone else notice thealmost perfect bell curve?

I haven't lost interest, but I've definitely become less enthusiastic about the car. All the indications are that it's going to be a better car than the outgoing model, but look pretty much the same. It's a good thing I'm not in the market to buy now, because what I've seen so far surely wouldn't make me consider waiting.

Don't really see how having to wait a bit longer for a reveal can cause one to lose interest, but everybody's different!

For me...I'm just as ready for this as I was a month or longer ago. I've accepted that we don't know when the reveal is, and that's that.

For me, I was looking for something fresh and new, because I don't like the refreshed 5th gens. However, the prototypes have curbed my enthusiasm, because they look like the same car on a different platform.

I was hoping the reveal would turn up something more new and exciting, but the longer it takes, the more I think about scratching the Camaro off my list of cars I'm considering altogether.

I agree. However, I don't think I'll be disappointed with the 6th-gen.

Agree! To me it seems like the challenger and the GT350 is the winner from what we see with the camo car!

That front has to go !

GroundhogSS · 01-24-2015, 10:36 PM

Still about the same interest but a little disappointed that we haven't seen the reveal yet. I think it's funny how much some people have such a strong opinion about a car that we haven't even seen yet and don't know what the specs are or if the camo cars are even the actual design. I have noticed that some people have been getting pretty argumentative in some of the Gen 6 threads. Hopefully when it is revealed, things will calm down.

Specs? The car is smaller ! But hey , I'm not in the market for anything that don't look retro! Lol...

alini · 01-24-2015, 11:28 PM

I initially heard rumors of a 70 body style redo, split bumper wide mouth grill....seeing it as a 5th gen body on a ATS frame just isnt doing it for me

Posaune · 01-24-2015, 11:39 PM

I'm excited to see the 6th Gen but no more so than I was at any other point. I'll see how excited I am when it is out and about and I can sit in it and try it out.

SuperSound · 01-24-2015, 11:53 PM

I'm all about the increase in performance, technology, efficiency, and hopefully a much better interior. As long as it isn't worse looking than the 5th gen (not that is bad looking), I'll be happy. To me the interior of the 5th gen is the biggest turn off, and is what really needs improving.
