I see the Camaro is continuing it's trend of piss poor outward visibility into the next five years. That is really the biggest bitch about the current gen. They've done a good job of really making the chassis work with the weight it has but they haven't fixed the ability to see out of the thing. Every time I see a new Camaro on the road I think about sitting in a pillbox.


I thought the same but If you look at the camo you can tell they are trying to make it look like the current version with the camo and camo tape. If you look at the camo tape on the windows it comes a good three inches down the front window and a couple of inches up on the doors. You can clearly see a ledge where the cars lines end and the camo tape continues past the metal and onto the windows. If you look carefully enough you can even see the tape line isnt straight on the front windshield so you know its not camo tape meeting metal. If you blow the image up you can tell that there is a good two to three inches of window below the tape on the front windshield and then a good inch or two on the doors.

Visibility is one of the main things the Camaro was hammered for and I feel Chevy will fix it this time around. I wont buy one but it looks like visibility from a window perspective is sorted...Be prepared for a high dash and low seats which will ruin any effort with the design and windows. The Camaro faithful wouldnt have it any other way.

Those proportions are really strange, and I hope they're including a periscope for visibility...

From what I can see, I kind of like it. But I never hated the old one like a lot of you.

I hope they keep the three-light clusters, that's a pretty good look. Still don't like they chopped roof look, though.

It looks like the transformer 4 car....ugly but it will at least shed some weight.
