They definitely mean the V6 but don't want to tell us so they can trick people into getting a Camaro lol. Plus when they go to a dealer, most likely a V6 will be on the lot.

I thought you were talking about this and was like huh? it says V6 fight there? lol

Well I CAN'T make it too easy for you, but if you re-visit the thread HE linked in post #74 (since it's his site) you can see my feelings on the issue.

One the subject of paint or wrap--For the last several years GM has had their pace cars prepared with painted stripes over stock or custom primary body colors, leaving the finshed products with a smooth finish (no raised stripes to the touch) color sanded all under a couple coats of clear. Event logos are most often decals, particulary NASCAR pace vehicles which normally see duty at multiple races/tracks (see Z06 pictures below).

Then...used later that summer for the Pepsi 400--new decals.

Last...wraps typically don't yield door jamb detail like you see here.

Still patiently waiting for a video of this car in action. I can't believe no video was rolling when Jimmy Johnson was thrashing this around the track!

I'm on it. Pics and video coming. I leave Wednesday for Daytona :happyanim:

I like colors, especially red, blue, and green, and I get tired of the endless sea of black, white, gray, and silver, but I'm very tempted to go for CGM now. That is a great color!

Think they be selling a pace car package? This will probably be somewhat what the B4C police car will look like if the build it.

I sure hope its a pre-production model.........the rear fenders don't fit right, left vs right.
Where the fender meets the trunk on the right side (just over the tail light0 fits well, unlike the left side. Mis-aligned and looks crappy......

I can't believe they can cannot get it right.........................no wonder they (GM) are in the toilet. Guys, pay a little bit more attention to alignment of the panels!!!

Are you basing this on just by looking at pictures? Or were you there in person and observed this? I went back and looked at the pics and it doesn't look like any problem to me. Looks symmetrical on both sides! :thumbup:

I really like the color combo. It wouldn't look good in my driveway, but you got to love the color. I don't know why GM can't paint us a CGM car and post the pictures so we can move on to something else. Ordered 2SS/RS L99 auto CGM 10/20'08

So, what does everyone think about those Midnight Silver Wheels on a Cyber Grey Metallic Camaro?
