And if you can't some GMPP parts that are being mulled over may enlighten you.

I am just curious as to what you guys would like, paint wise, options. What some other cars have that you would like included.

I would love to have NAV, i use it all the time in my truck.
Yup, I use it in my Vette all the time, but my HighSchooler only needs to drive a short distance to school.

Wish list:

1) A more efficient DI V8 for the SS models.
2) Move Onstar and gadgets into a separate package.
3) Move leather wrapped steering wheel and shifter into the RS package.
4) Add optional back-up radar.
5) Add Sunset Orange Metallic and Desert Sand Metallic colors.
6) Make the center console lid so it will stay open (a simple spring mechanism?).

It would be great to have a real NAV system...and not one that required ONSTAR

An internal hard drive to store the NAV and room for some additional tunes would also be nice (since we are dreaming here)

Different Grill options (Chrome, SS in the middle, etc.)

how about a smaller lighter V8 with DOHC and DI...

the technology is available and you could get the same HP/TQ numbers out of a smaller block and get some better mpg's while your at it + the weight distribution would be better thus the car would handle better

-standard HID's
-loose the mail slot on the SS or at least make it functional
-lower grill redesign... too plain IMO
-adjustable suspension/ride option

And no i wont tell you what is coming in 2011 model year or subsequent model years "Gm already has a fairly good idea on whats coming" as Scott asked me not too and i wouldent anyways. I ain't skeered of suburbans, but some things must remain a secret for the time being, although i would LOVE to tell you because it would blow your minds.

So post up.
I think a Z-28 that outperforms anything else being put out there, ie. hennessy, lingenfelter, etc. would be great for chevy and the end user. I would definitely wait for this one!

I would like to see the door tension bars a little tighter. Currently the door opens to freely. I would like lumbar support with user control. Long drives are decent, but could be improved. I think they could have had a more aggressive sound at idle. I took off the exhaust cans from axle back and it sounds great. The sunroof should go into the roof. A smaller mirror for better visibility. Do not get me wrong, I have no issue with it personally, but it took me a week to get used to it. The wife would like a better quality glove box (Not sure why, but this is her thought).

both front seats power adjust with memory feature.

Lot of good ideas being thrown around here...

Just wanted to address one of them: Touch-screen nav.

Unfortunately, that probably won't be coming around for some time...there really is no way to integrate a nav. screen into the Camaro's dash without major changes as far as I can see.

400+ RWHP in the automatics, so around 430ish rwhp in the manuals, along with a 3.73 axle ratio. would be smokin.

HUD

Navi with map I hate not being able to see what the planned route is with On*

ABL brightness controls separate fom other internal lighting control. I want to be able to dim the radio and DIC but still have the ABL lights

Even though I as disappointed when I first heard... Now I don't miss ABL on the dash, I think it would be distracting.

Backup radar or camera
