It fit's with the rest of the refreshed Chevy lineup, they butchered it.

So many fanboys around here.

It's not 'hideous' or 'horrible' or 'gross'.

From an exterior design standpoint, I think it looks much better.

However, the poor visibility and interior ergonomic issues still remain.
Nah, I didn't like the previous Camaro design, but this is much worse. Almost makes me appreciate the current model more.

The guys over at Camaro6 are already photoshopping it to try and make it look better :lol:

I'm usually pretty open minded when it comes to refreshes. I was a bit caught off guard when the 2018 mustang was first revealed, but all the pictures were at the same angle, so I reserved my judgement until I saw more angles of it. After that, I fell in love.

This, on the other hand, has ALL KINDS of angles and videos attached to the debut, and I can't find one that looks good. The photoshop posted above does a lot to help the look, but it's still a huge downgrade from the 16-18

Still glad I bought a Mustang instead of a Camaro.

That thing looks horrible and I'm a chevy guy.

I actually kind of like it. Their current model is too derivative of the last gen. The tail lights are a huge improvement for sure. I prefer design evolution that is edgy and pushes things forward. However with all that said I still think the current GT350 is the most handsome car in the segment (not just because I own one).

Looks decent. Hood is an improvement. I wonder what the updated HQ/TQ numbers will be at. I'm sure that 6.2L has a lot more HP they can squeeze out of it.

Camaro6 did a poll on the new look, and surprisingly most of them hate it.

@Ace are you getting this new one or the pre-FL?
Picking up my 18 2SS on friday ;)

But I honestly think the Camaro facelift looks fine, even tough it's a bit too much Tranformers 5 bumblebee in it to me and I prefer the 16-18 look. But we shouldn't act here like the Mustang refresh was anything close to well received at reveal :D

Honestly, I thought the refresh info was an April Fools joke when I first saw it this morning before ingesting some caffeine and realized that was a week ago....

I sorta like the taillights, hood, and RS front end. But that SS prow is a steaming pile of Not Good.
