So glad we did this with the Malibu, I hated the front end of the first try. Looks much better.

No one has more skin in this one that I do right now and I've waited since last July when I canceled my 1LE order to wait on a 2019. If I don't see what I want in this refresh I will continue to wait or just get an 18.

My hopes are new colors. Carbon Ceramic brake option and maybe a better calibration on the torque management, but not holding my breath.

What I fear is we get that LT5 or Z/28 in 2020. That seems like a natural progression.

So we sit back and wait...
I consider soon within a week, but that’s me.

I don’t see a Z/28 happening. Even the LT5 isn’t likely. The ZL1 1LE is this generations Z/28.

Unfortunately i think you are pretty close.

WOW chevy really ****ed all their models with this new design. Absolutely a step in the wrong direction. Used to love the RS cruze models, no longer the case.

All I'm going to say is that I hope you are really, really way off on this. That thing is hard to look at. Makes the new mustang attractive.....

Hellcat here I come.....

...or days

I agree, we will definitely not see either of those.

But I do think in as early as MY 2020 a Z/28 or LT5 is a huge possibility. I'd rather see a straight line car now with LT5.

I don't mind waiting for what I want so still anxiously waiting on an Orange 1LE. If I don't buy something soon my wife is going to shoot me. She's diehard Camaro and wouldn't even let me peek at the vette.

Looks like a fish, barf! Mazda tried a similar happy fish face a few years ago and they quickly learned from that mistake. Chevy should have learned from them. Looks like rental car heaven right there..

I'm liking that Malibu, and the Cruze ain't bad.

That's some good photoshop skills! The grill styling worked for the Malibu/Cruze, but may be a bit much for the Camaro. Still better looking than the new Mustang. Someone here said the Mustang looked like a fish with its mouth open and that's all I see now when I look at one, lol.

The Mustangs up to 2014 looked great IMO.

If they put that chrome crap on the front of the Camaro they deserve the bad sales. My god.

Thus far the only 'recent' refreshes I like are Challenger 2015 in top spot, Mustang 2013 with both amazing front and back end. I actually like the rear end of the 2015 Camaro. The lights they retro harken back to the 67 rear end. But I feel the front end was a mistake, the halo lights ended up with googly eye look pointing in different directions, and the lower grille was blaaaa. The less said about the front end of the new 2018 Mustang refresh the better... ruins the awesome 2015 looks.

**Warning** I know this sounds bad.

I have a friend who is in Nevada right now. He has seen the 2019 Camaro. He said "the front looks just like a Malibu on a SS." He also said that the taillights look badass. I sent him the picture that someone made up of the Red SS and he said "No, not that." Just thought I would share.
