Well I like my 2010 better. Contrary to what most are saying I like the new tail lights. I'm going to the NY show this Friday so ill see it in person then and ill be able to make a better judgement.

Glad the remake does not appeal to me at all. This way I don't have to loose sleep over trying to figure out whether or not to trade in my 2010 SS which is almost paid off lol.

I like the front but not the back. But I'm sure it looks good in person!

It looks like the space between the tail lights will go up with the trunk leaving a bigger opening

Now we have this "refresh" that takes the Camaro to another level, and sadly it's a much much lower level. I'm sorry but things don't grow on me, either I like them or I don't and I can readily say I don't
I agree.

The camaro has always had a wide butt. That's one of the things that makes it so sexy.

But just love how people claim anyone involved is an "idiot". They are people that made decisions based on way more input than what you or I have. That doesn't make them idiots. Sorry, it's just not true. Know most of them by name and have socialized with some of them for years. NOT idiots.

If you think this change would be universally loved like the current car...........................oh wait, yeah that's right it isn't either. Everyone is acting like the 2011 - 2013 are so awesome that any change is like painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa. Sorry it isn't, at least not for everyone. Keep in mind ladies and gentlemen there was a day when the F-car sold so well it needed 2 yes 2 assembly plants. Today it's meager 100,000 units. That isn't really much, just good enough to lead the category.

o don't get me wrong i love the way the current camaro looks from the back but theres something about the way the challenger looks that i just find unattractive, i cant even drive behind them on the highway, the wheels just look to skinny for the car. that doen't happen with the camaro it look proportional and i hope it stays that way with the 2014.

I mean really, who cares?

They revealed it already. All that's missing is spec sheets.

And from what I see, GM blew it... glad I got a 2012!

place on this car.I have to give it two thumbs DOWN.

I have to disagree, but that's fine. I love the looks of the SRT8 at any angle. I just didn't like that they are somewhat under powered.

Did I say it already? I can't wait to see the reveal tomorrow. I love what I've already seen so far.

It already does. To make the opening larger, the taillights would have had to been moved or made smaller and had a structural change made to the back of the car....
Have you ever opened your trunk?
