actually, I think the smilie was supposed to be what the rear end of the Camaro looks like... two eyes = tail lights, tongue = license plate

but I'm sure there will be some interesting smiling faces that will be made when people start taking delivery of their cars... very few will look like the smilie posted

I guess I'll have to be buying a magnifying glass to spot the back of it's head in my rear view mirror if that made ANY sense
