Found this pic its seem like a 6g Camaro on a trailer, at the glance the roofline look like 15' Mustang .
… also the roofline on the gen 5 Camaro is not even close to the 15 Mustang fastback styling. Very different in their approaches in fact. Look at them closely you will see. :)

Just for the record, I'm not sold on Chaz's rendering either...although I think he does great work. As for the rendering itself...its just not sitting perfectly well with me. Certain views are nice, and others not as much.

But I wouldn't put much faith in those renderings being as "overall" accurate as he was with the 2015 Mustang which he was very close on. With the Mustang, he had inside info, CAD drawings, and leaks to go on which helped a lot.

In this case, all he has is the camo'd cars to go on and that is it. If you look at the very latest close up shots found on the Camaro6 website, there is definitely still extra body work, and tape work done on the windows which could be off from Chaz's rendering.

There is ZERO doubt in my mind that there will be details found on the release that are not found in Chaz renderings, and those details can make a huge difference. But if I had to guess, I'd say the general body work in the renderings is fairly close, with some lines on the front and back being off, tail lights are wrong (aside from the outside shape, Chaz just made them up) and there may be some hidden ducts/side vents we are not seeing as well.

I will withhold my judgment until May 16th.

At first glance i thought it look close to stang but, when the second glances the 16 Camaro roof line look it had less slope than 15' stang. 16' camaro design doesnt change much from the outside. Not thing make me go WOW!!!

People are already confusing a 2015 with a 2016. They should have made some bigger changes. The upper grill area has got to go...

How's about we wait and see the dang car first before we assume we know exactly what it looks like??

Doesn't that seem like the rational thing to do?

Not sure how people can confuse a 2016 model (that's not available yet) and in camo, with a 2015.

You guys should not be taking Chaz's renderings to heart.

I, for one, feel GM took a path of least resistance with the styling of the 6th generation Camaro. From what we have seen to-date, we can pretty well determine that the exterior design is going to closely resemble the current generation. That's really sad and says to me that GM is scared to death of losing the pony are market share they gained with the introduction of the 5th Generation Camaro.

Now, I could be wrong, but I have serious doubts, no matter how well the car performs, that they will be able to catch that lightning in a bottle again. GM will likely see good sales numbers with the 6th Gen, but I doubt the demand is going to be there like it was with the 5th Gen coming after a period of NO Camaro production.

Ding ding ding!
The main reason camaro's rocketed is because it wasn't being produced for 8 years...

Also we can beat a dead horse all we want, you don't have to read the thread:headbonk:

And it should come as no surprise on a Mustang-oriented site, people like to discuss horses. Dead or otherwise.

Maybe someone can photoshop it with some T-tops and the driver sporting a mullet to match flowing in the wind. :mullet:

Couldn't resist. :D
