Opinions are not liked around here!! J/K

And here we go with the woe is me can't speak my mind on this forum. Tom longer than usual.

Visual appeal is an OPINION.

The FACT that a cts is an all around nicer AND better Car than the charger is just that. A FACT

No matter how many pages it goes round and round. The FACTS stay facts

Slow-V6 02-27-2013 10:30 PM

I was just joking. I hope this SS sells like hot cakes.

i said nice to represent the visual appeal of the car. since i havent seen the interior on a cts-v nor have driven one i wouldnt have an opinion of how capable and equipped the car is but you cant say that its nicer is a fact, that comes down to personal opinion. it might perform better in all categories but you can't say that its nicer is a fact lol

the SS that paced the daytona 500 looked pretty dam good in that blue color, much better then the ****** silver they always present cars in

once you said that i immediately searched it. it doesnt look half bad actually, id like to wait to see a month after theyre out, there might be a few aftermarket grille options that would clean that front end up pretty easily. especially losing that chevy sign in the front for a nice ss style grille :D

maroman88 02-28-2013 01:31 AM

lol see, add an agressive sporty color and all is well

Remove the bow-tie & does anyone else see a Benz-esque front fascia?

I see a grill that looks like charlie brown's shirt. Nice chop bro.

It does look good and has the bold fenders of the g8 like al has been saying. I still hate that lower grill but its grown slightly on me. I'd rather that then the rear of a c7 :rofl:

Microsoft Paint here on the office desktop. I knew you'd dig it.


I'm with you on the lower grille. Something about it just doesn't sit right with me. Although, I'm keeping in mind that photographs exaggerate details more than they appear in person, so who knows.

That's a low blow on the C7-rear comment! Oof!

lol i just dont understand the designers really. theyre like alright lets make this a big huge open grille....doesnt look right now...i know...toss a huge chunk of plastic in the middle of it, thats what its missing.

gm loves their huge chunks of random plastic :D

Jersey Mike 02-28-2013 06:24 PM

More air flow for future front-mounts, duh!

Licence plate mounting is important.

Fixed in more ways than one.

It is. How many car enthusiasts in this state don't run one? How many states even require one? Like John said, there's other ways of doing it.

ok so how hard is it to include two very small blocks with threads in it hidden on the underside of the egg crate? youre telling me that a 2 foot chunk of plastic is the best gm can do to figure out how to mount a plate? come on al, even you arent that one sided to assume that a flat huge chunk of plastic is the best they can figure out. especially with the awesome way gm handled front plates with trans ams and corvettes with removable panels for the enthusiast or states that dont run them.

sweetbmxrider 03-01-2013 07:16 AM

I photoshopped it some and it looks good as a whole grill and no bowtie. I didn't save it cause my battery died lulz.

donnj 03-01-2013 07:30 AM

seems as though they are slowly catching the Euro scene, by the time they have it figured out the Euro market will have a new theme. But of course al will have it all figured out by then once again

Slow-V6 03-01-2013 10:20 AM

So this car is just called a SS?

Yup

Slow-V6 03-01-2013 11:23 AM

What effect will that have on other cars in the line up that has SS as well? Camaro, Ect?

Mike 03-01-2013 11:47 AM

Why would it do anything to them? And ta just the camaro now
