well i think the interior is an improvement, especially the gauge cluster. The body style threw me for a minute as I was skimming the page...i thought i caught a whiff of a dodge LOL

i guess I disagree with most people as I feel it is an improvement of the current car in every way. I especially like the new roofline. I find it interesting how many people are critical of how similar it is to the 5th gen car, I bet a lot of mustang fans hoped for something similar with the 2015 mustang. Personally I like the 2015 mustang but I still prefer the look of the 2010-14 more and would have liked to have seen an improved 2014 looking mustang over the redesign that it got. I understand why GM did it, the criticisms that GM got for the 5th gen were not on looks so why change it?

Interesting Easter Eggs on the new car....the same styling cue on front of Bumble Bee is found on the rear of the '16.

Looks like they threw the old blueprints in the copier and they were smudged. The interior is better (couldn't get much worse), but the HVAC buttons are minuscule!

What an ugly looking car!!!
I don't like it at all. I didn't really like the previous Camaros either, but this is just U_G_L_Y.

Its not most people that dont like the new Camaro lol, it's mostly the Mustang forums were there is a lot of criticism lol, gee i wonder why? " GM knows what the enthusiasts that have kept the Camaro name going all these years wanted this car to look like, an American "Pony" car and not some Euro import/ Japanese looking car! The new Camaro is a new car from the wheels up, literally from the wheels up! Unlike Ford that has a carry over engine lol. The new Camaro is lighter and more powerful and better handeling than the outgoing camaro, wich already out handles the S550 lol. Ford was catering to the Euros and biult a Euro Stang, its underwelming and can barely get out from under its own weight lol! Nope, i would say that GM hit it out of the park with this one and Ford is going to get clobbered by GM! I know i am atleast one Mustang guy that will be going to the other side, ive gathered there will be a lot more! Atleast Ford hasnt screwed up there trucks yet!

The one thing that stands out to me is the bowtie in the front. It would look better without it. I hate that they have to put that there. So glad Ford doesn't do that.

Talking

When I look at the front of the 2016 Camaro SS, I see the Toyota Camry influence. Maybe the SS should be called Camryo.

Look more like the Mustang's 2009 to 2010 refresh than the 2014 to 2015 redesign. I am really disappointed Chevy did not to a complete redesign. Oh well...Mustang will out sell Camaro for another decade. Thanks Chevy!

They need badges. How else would you be able to tell them apart from Toyotas?

We only need a running pony. Much classier.

A more elegant solution would be to have 3 different bowtie badges to differentiate the models. Add the RS/SS script to the badge or just have three different colored badges.

Help me out here, im not trying to be cynical honestly but when you say a complete redesign what do you mean? The 2016 Camaro is in fact from the tires up completely new. New chassis, new engine, literaly everything! So do you mean that it looks as in appearance the same?

Just to clear things up here guy and gals, this car is completely and totaly in every way a different car! I get that people are saying that it looks the same as the 2015 but whats wrong with that? I like the way the camaro has looked with the exception of the stupid fish gills by the doors and the interior but this is in fact riding on a new chassis with a new engine! Hello Mc fly?
