'16 Camaro Leaked Day Before Reveal!
All New 2016 Camaro. Not as bad as I thought, judging from these pictures. I still think the silhouette is going to be awkward.

Gotta see more pics or in person. The lower grille seems ugly...makes the whole nose look like some transformer-like robot from a video game.

Would like to see a side shot for the roof-line....from that angle it reminds me of a certain car often seen on this forum.

Man, they f**ked up with that car. The look is already old and getting boring. This was such and odd path by GM. I've never seen a company make a car on a completely new and different platform yet do just about everything they could to make it look like the previous model. Only Porsche does that...

I've been scouring the Camaro forums, and a majority of the guys are very disappointed and dislike the styling.

Makeover? More like mild refresh. I honestly had high hopes that GM would fix their shortcomings on the camaro. Ofcourse i cant say anything to the interior yet as it hasnt been shown but exterior wise im very dissapointed

Whatever happened to this one? Instead they made a box with a Camaro emblem on it. Then changed the box to look like another box.

I liked the look for the reboot of the Camaro put it has been down hill from here. I am more of the fan of the 90's Firebird!

I agree. They should've come out with something new/exciting and push the styling envelope like the 2015 Mustang. Like or hate the 2015, at least it's a new direction and not just a refreshed S197 with IRS.

I totally agree! I know its on a smaller platform but its like they just shrunk the design and said that good enough. Im still waiting for the interior, maybe they made that look good.

Is that 30th yours? I had my 30th out yesterday, picked up my kids from school in it since my wife was out of town.

That rounded hood to fender/front end cutline is pretty awkward, at least in pictures. Very Saab-esque.

These car company's keep missing the Mark.

Looks like the Italians will be getting the car sales.
