    It seems Chevrolet didn't miss the chance to rein in the bloated exterior dimensions from the previous Camaro. Shorter, lower plus a more narrow width and less weight are all positive changes. Design wise the exterior doesn't stray too far from the 2010 look...
    The only question now is whether those Michigan people can build the new Camaro as well as the Oshawa Ontario plant workers did...

    Personally it looks a touch muted from the front. Other angles it looks ok...I will have to see it in person. I like the lighter/more taut mindset.

    Based on pics, it looks overdone.
    But ATS chassis and 455 Hp hard to go wrong.

    The RS version is also great. The body is too muscular!

    I'm completely Meh about its looks, it lacks any dynamic characteristics. It also looks like they did nothing to improve visibility having drove one small villages do go missing.

    Lets see it in the flesh foir a real impression.
    Clean and origional like the gen 5 its not.
    What is the real weight, a headline grabbing lost 200lbs may mean little when it transktes to a V8. But the ATs is if nothign else a great handler, couple that with 455hp a "decent" transmission and some good steering and we have something special.
    Lets se if Gm got the dynamic details right, based on the C7 vette we know they can.
