My reaction. No LS7 option, so who really cares now more than before?

tjk_art · 03-26-2013, 12:14 PM

I like it cause now mine looks better...

Agree. It looks melted or just weakened. I love the aggression and harder edges of the current model. Sleek, rounded sports cars can be beautiful, but this looks neutered, IMO.

Interesting that the car on the set has Dusk SE wheels.

Front facia looks good, taillights (from what I can see) look good, don't care for the hood insert.

yenkotown · 03-26-2013, 12:15 PM

I like it better front and rear........if the hood is fully functional so much the better. Most people complaining just know their car now looks older. I'll bet the lower and wider hoodline also helps aero......
Overall just enough of a refresh to keep us interested until the Gen VI appears.

i'm sure we will get some exciting news tomorrow...

RatedZ · 03-26-2013, 12:16 PM

Looks like Chevys designers met up with Fords designers and made a more aggressive front end but screwed up the back end just like Ford did with the Mustang when they changed the rear end of the 2010 Mustang.

Emergency refresh, refresh!

AKA-22 · 03-26-2013, 12:17 PM

its ok .....my 2012 looks more aggressive with its front grill than 2014 ...and the back on the 2014 is not my taste but it is a camaro and still looks good, not just something i would want to trade for ..

superbears14 · 03-26-2013, 12:17 PM

I don't think I am a fan of this. I don't really like the hood vent or the back end. It doesn't really look like a beast anymore. Glad I have a 13...

I bet 13 sales are going to increase like crazy now!

94turbolsx · 03-26-2013, 12:18 PM

From the available pics, all I can think of is "what the hell were they thinking". The Camaro design like it or not has been a very fluid, flowing design.
Although not perfect, all the elements worked well together. This new 2014, from the initial looks of it does not. It looks awkward. The rear is the worst aspect, why the blocky taillights. I cant believe the interior looks completely untouched. I am afraid to see the ZL1.

Step back imo, since their are seemingly no performance enhancements either like the early press release led on. I have been a Camaro owner since I was 18 but have not been compelled enough to purchase a 5th gen yet, I was hoping this refresh corrected a few things I dont like about the current car, it just made them worse.

Mikes SS · 03-26-2013, 12:18 PM

That's what I said, hurry up and let the displeasure out about the rear so they have time to change it before production!!!!!!!

So Cal Camaro · 03-26-2013, 12:19 PM

All I can say is I'm glad I bought my 1LE this year, new one isn't that bad, but I prefer what I have.....

H0peful1 · 03-26-2013, 12:20 PM

Ok, so both the Stang owner and the Hyundai owner like it. Nuff said.
