I do think it is great that Chevy is putting out a 6th gen that seems (so far) well received by 5th gen and potential buyers. Ditto for Ford with their new Mustang.
But, the design is not to my taste (subjective) and is more 5th gen from the pics than something different. Will need to see in person to form an actual concrete opinion.
The weight of these cars is still too high, they should be on par with the 4th gens - even with the new government requirements. I'm going to say from the pics that the aerodynamics are improved from the 5th gen - but no where as good as the 3rd and 4th gens; talking CoD and frontal area here - not downforce.
ThoR294, LOL about the 323hp V6 running in the high 14's. My 280hp LaCrosse (same size engine, but FWD in a heavier car) runs in the high 14's. Minimal meaningful power upgradability on the V6 - unlike the LS1/2/3...
