Go get 'em! 
I have to admit I am both happy and sad about this photo.
Happy, because I can see around the bad lighting and monochromatic colors to understand that the production Camaro is everything I'd hoped it would be.
Sad, because this poor quality photo may give the production Camaro a black eye before everyone sees it in all its glory as GM had intended.
I hope most enthusiasts remain patient.

Yeah, I was thinking this maybe the photo is just of terrable quality and to close. Hopefully its not so "tall".

To be honest (or is naive the word I'm looking for?) - I'm not thrilled to see this new picture. I never thought GM would deviate very far from the concept - the concept has been too high exposure outside the automotive world for GM to change tack. Think of all those people who saw the Camaro for the first time in the Transformers movie - they're going to notice a production car drastically different from the movie.....so I was never worried about the car.
What I don't like about this latest picture is that it throws off GM's strategy and hurts the whole Camaro team. A lot of people are working hard to make this car perfect and it sucks that someone (who probably isn't a GM fan) would circulate a picture like this.

Hello peeps,
I'm pretty new here and I haven't posted in a long time. I've mostly been cruising the boards looking for any new info.
I really like the way the car looks, poor photo and all,
. I'm sure the new Camaro will be flying off the dealer lots as fast as they arrive. I have waited a long time to purchase a new car. I like the new Camaro so much that I'm willing to wait another year or two for it before I make a final decision on any car.
I believe and I hope the fit and finish and quality will be something to brag about. If it lives up to the hype then I'll take a black one with a V8 and a 6 speed thankyou.

On a positive note, GM is probably scrambling right now, trying to decide whether (or not) they should release to some photos of their own that show the production Camaro in a better light. (And perhaps color as well.)

We need to remember there is going to be a vanilla, V6 version of the Camaro too, which this car may be. Smaller wheels, higher ride height, something the womenz will be comfortable driving everyday. Comparing this car to the concept may be like comparing 4th gen V6 cars to the SS.

It's a crappy picture of a badass car.
I'm sure I can dig up pics of other badass cars (although not as badass as a 5th gen
)
that are horrible.
I am disappointed that THIS pic made it out, but I can see that the car is on the right
track. There will be a 5th gen Camaro in this family soon enough!
I think most people will be able to see through this picture and understand that it
is a crappy cell phone pic taken by someone who is obviously NOT a photographer.

This was a horrible picture --
.................and it's what puts me up the wall --
.....................past the pictures...............
.........................................and on to the ceiling........
.....because some BOZO (I'm being kind here......) took it upon himself/herself to take a horribly positioned picture and put it out there for all to see. Someone not only needs to be fired -- but PROSECUTED..................and no, we didn't do this to 'leak' it.....

Charlie, what do you say to this? (you're convinced the production car will be considerably bigger than the concept)....

All I can say is I love the concept car and I cant wait to go another 30 to 35 grand in debt to own the production car. I have always wanted to own a first gen and I feel this car is better looking and will be far more fun to drive than a 69 or my old 81 Z28 or my 2007 Charger R/T family car.
