Yup - the rear.. talights (though the afterburner look inside the housing is cool) need work and the chrome bright work around the exhausts has to go. Have the exhaust poking through without the trim rings or notch the bottom of the rear fascia just like a Stang.

Hmmm......
I'd have to say the grill. I like the idea of it, but not the execution. I want to see it narrower, maybe more separated from the headlights, and I want a red Bowtie instead of that God awful gold.

Re: Which Camaro concept exterior styling element needs to be reworked the most?
Well since the Green House isn't going to change due to regulations I am not even going to consider that as an option... Wouldn't have voted for it anyways b/c I like it!!!
Voted for the rear facia. The front is great IMO, and just needs MINOR work to it for production looks, but the rear needs a little more. Its not bad, and its really growing on me, but that god awful exhaust exit and bumper molding is terrible. I don't mind the lights anymore, but that exhaust exit has to be changed. I am a hideaway exhaust guy though. I'd rather they run the bumper all the way down, and have hideaway tips. If they are going to incorporate the bumper and exhaust together, i'd love to see it exit through the bumper if at all possible. Maybe someone can photoshop what that would look like

I love the way the car looks, personaly the only thing I'd do to it is get the old school RS headlight covers and a nice ducktail spolier. Then I wouldn't touch the appearance of it!

Re: Which Camaro concept exterior styling element needs to be reworked the most?
The lights are too corvetteish. How about two tail lights that always had the classic red/amber lights?
Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing.

Re: Which Camaro concept exterior styling element needs to be reworked the most?
I voted the front facia..
The rear looks pretty modern, maybe two larger single tail-lights would look better, but I can live with it. Just wonder how the "back-up" lights will work?
But, the front facia and grille is too close to the originals, making it feel retro.
They can still keep general shaping, but use more modern detail cues in the grille and logo and lights etc., that to me, will break the "retro" feeling people are getting about the car.(minus the interior..
) Heck, why not incorporate the Camaro red/white/blue badge in the front too.

My favorite part of the car is the rear. Hopefully that wont change much if at all. I voted for the front fascia to be reworked a little. I mean come on, the Camaro emblem isnt there.

Re: Which Camaro concept exterior styling element needs to be reworked the most?
That big "smiley" grille just drives me nuts! Too wide and way too much angle up. The chops I have seen that made the grille more horizontal and narrower look much meaner and sleeker. The grill is just way out of proportion to the rest of the car.
I am beginning to accept the rear, but I don't care for the "Corvette Corner" on the quarter panel.
But, all in all, I can't wait to buy one.
