THAT MEANS ONLY 345 ARE PRODUCED A DAY AND I THOUGH MOLE SAID ABOUT 400 A DAY

WOW! THATS ALOT OF MAROS THAT ARE SITTING AROUND SOMEWHERE,THEY SAY OVER 6,000 DELIVERD,I DONT THINK SO,WELL MAYBE COUNTING DEALER V-6 CARS,I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY G.M. IS NOT GETTING THESE CARS IN CUSTOMER HANDS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE,YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD CONTRACT MORE PEOPLE TO TRANSPORT THESE CARS SO THEY COULD COLLECT THE $$$$$ THAT THEY SO DESPERATLY NEED...I ORDERED MID DEC.08' AND FINALLY WENT TO EVENT 3000 ON MAY 14, AND HAVE A TPW OF JUNE 15,AND IT WILL TAKE LONGER TO BE DRIVING THE MARO THAN IT TOOK TO PRODUCE IT,HOPEFULLY IT DOES'NT TAKE 2 MONTHS TO GET IT ONCE IT IS BUILT...THAT JUST IS'NT GOOD BUSINESS...COME ON G.M. PROVE YOURSELVES,GET MORE HAULERS TO GET US OUR CARS,I HAVE SEEN A FEW PEOPLE GIVE UP AND GO TO A GT500 AND CHALLENGER AND G.M. DOES NOT NEED TO LOOSE CUSTOMERS IN THESE TIMES,GRANTED ITS A VERY NICE CAR BUT PEOPLE ARE GETTING IM-PATIENT WITH ALL THE ONES BUILT AND OTHERS GETTING THEM THAT ORDERED AS MUCH AS 4 MONTHS LATER THAN OTHERS...BEING IN BUSINESS FOR 100 YEARS A PERSON WOULD THINK G.M. HAS ALL THE TRANSPORTING OF VEHICLES FIGURED OUT BY NOW,.....JUST MY THOUGHTS ON THE SUBJECT.

GM Bankrupt!!! Sounds like they need a new way of marketing, maybe get them on the road to the pre-orders. With 2000 dealers closing, where are the 4000 camaros going? I'd like one please...

I thought dealers only got 1 (one) V6 dealer display car each? So that would be 3600 not 7200. I don't think the 500 CTF cars count either, as a lot if not all of those were pre-production cars. So my math says 3600+15000 pre-orders = 18600. I think by Mid-June were at that number if not sooner.

ALL THE MAROS G.M. IS TRYING TO GET OUT THERE TO GAIN MORE SALES....THE BEST ADVERTISING TO GAIN MORE SELLS IS THE OWNERS OF THE CAMARO THAT ACTUALLY HAVE THEIRS AND PEOPLE SEEING THEM ON THE STREETS IS THE VERY BEST ADVERTISING THERE COULD BE,

OK, so now I'm confused. If there were roughly 14,000 pre-orders and they have produced 14,700+ cars, then why was my pre-order from 2/27 just accepted for production today? I would have thought that the pre-orders would have taken priority over any thing else. If thats the case then who got cars that were NOT pre-ordered and why?

Million dollar question right there

after the initial one per dealer was announced they decided to make it two per dealer.
Also just heard on radio, from GM executive that HALF of production is now SOLD OUT. (Sean Hannity show around 4:50 PM)

My dealer is apparently getting a V6 in a month that isn't spoken for and will be available for purchase (im more concerned about just getting a test drive). Who knows...

this is pretty good. Hopefully they keep it up and start shipping the ones they are building.

Keep the camaros coming GM
