I don't see the production of saleable vehicles starting anyplace but Oshawa.

Tooling and engineering is already happening for the car in Australia right now, right? They can always move that stuff over to Oshawa. That's what they're doing with the Pontiac G8. If it can be done with the G8, it can be done with the Camaro. As time wears on, they'll realize that this two year media hype will grow old and they will change strategy. You never unveil a concept car 3 years before its production date. You do it two years before, max. They'll have it out sooner. Any increase in production costs would be temporary and could be made up later. They risk losing more money by being late to the dance.
