Gen 5( refresh) best aesthetic,this one not so much. Bifurcated grill with the bowtie slapped on the bumper looks like an afterthought. JMO

It is 1998 all over again.

In 1998 they made the front end look like a Toyota Supra and the back end look like a Chrysler Sebring.

For 2019 the front end borrows from the styling of the next years Silverado that is the intention- but when combined with the overall shape of the camaro the front end has the visual effect of reminding you of the look of a current Dodge Charger with heavy influence from the styling of the Dodge Dart.

This is a disaster.

I said the same thing... Fortunately for Chevrolet in 98 they also introduced the LS1 in the Camaro so people forgave how ugly it was....for a few years anyhow.

I hate it. It sucks because I'm a big 6th gen fan. We even own one now. They could make one small change and it would make a world of difference. Move the bowtie to the grille on the SS. It ruins the front where it's located now.

One of the few cars that looks better with the camo attached. Is that an option? Its time to move it to a retro 2nd gen design. They've done the 69 variations to death.

What an ugly car. Look like a Charger and a Silverado mixed together.
