They put a Camera Back There for People that Have Their Heads So Far up Their A** That They Don't Know What's Going On Around Them. So they don't back over someones kid and kill them. If they knew how to drive and paid attention, they wouldn't need the camera.

Honestly the only Real Reason I personally would consider it is for night time, since I'd have my back windows Limo Tinted and it's hard seeing out in the dark. Oh, and BTW.....

I LOVE IT!

Well, although the looks of the rear have grown on me slightly, I am still in the HATE camp overall. I do not really have a problem with the taillights, although I have seen better, i.e. 05-09, but all the black plastic is just horrible IMHO. I am just not a fan of black plastic as a styling element, it just makes it look like a cheap Pontiac. I do not like the black plastic on the rear of the C6 Corvette either, but it was executed a little better with the integration of the reverse lights. Black plastic fades to easily, and the texture is a pain to avoid when waxing the painted surfaces, so many cars end up with white residue on the black whick looks even more poopy.

Don't worry, the aftermarket will come up with a fix for that poopy diaper! I can just about guarantee that you'll see plenty of 2010 owners posting up pics with their new aftermarket rear bumper cover sans the diaper.

But you're right, it could have looked much better if it was done right in the first place. Something similar to the GT/CS rear bumper would have helped the looks of the 2010 rear end immensely.

I really don't care for it at all. That rear bumper sticks out way too far. It looks like there's something in the trunk trying to beat its way out.

So what happens if you want a backup camera without a spoiler?
