50th Anniversary Possibility?

[paultheman2007]

i hope they make one but if not i know i will be getting another Camaro if the 6th GEN is like the 5th gen. Hot no matter if you leave it stock or not i would love to buy a z28 but i think for the six gen i am going to wait a little bit so i can get the top of the line like the zl1 in todays 5th gen

You can't just change the definition of words for your liking.

That actually was not listed where I found that.

but guess what. the anniversary of the camaro being brought out in 67 still happened in 2003, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09. It was it is the "annual recurrence" of the time/date/year of an event. That recurrence is in the date not the fact that the product was made.

with your logic you would have to get married every year over again to celebrate an anniversary.

So you're saying that 1976, the Bicentennial of the founding of America, was not the 200th anniversary of the founding of America?

Listen, if you don't approve of it that's fine. But there's no reason to start an argument. BowtieBelle started this thread to discuss the possibilities of a 50th anniversary Camaro. Chevy will make one, and they will call it a 50th anniversary in 2017 whether you like it or not.

I can tell you just want to say you have the last anniversary Camaro, but unfortunately you don't. And you're certainly not going to change Chevy's mind about how they brand vehicles.

You've got a purdy mouth when you're angry...

This is an internet forum guy. Without opinions, it would serve no purpose. What we have here are two different perspectives. I'm sure in your mind, you're very much correct.

And you can leave my 02 out of this. It's not a factor, I'm just right.

And Bowtie knows I've got nothin but love.


Oh I forgot to address your centennial Q: That was 100yrs for Chevrolet, no? So that edition was in tribute to another entity, not in celebration of Corvette production. Doesn't even apply to the conversation.

You have my logic wrong then as well as the definition, you would have to STAY married year after year that is exactly my point thanks!

If you want to disregard the dictionary that is on you

And by this logic, the "Anniversary" just isn't applicable to Camaro anymore. Don't see how it can be any clearer.

In 2020, I'd have no problem starting over at 10th Anni. Like I said before, I'd even stretch the truth enough to base anniversaries on total years of production henceforth. To drop a 45th now is just cutting corners.

IMO

I didn't mean to start trouble and this is the last I have to say on the subject. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion (hopefully they will state it nicely), but I just don't see how you can have an "annual recurrence" if the item isn't in production.

ok then lets look at it this way. Gm has owned the rights to the name camaro with a legal document just like a legal document changes a girls name to the guys when they get married. So GM has been married to the name camaro for 45 years. Therefore celebrated the 45th anniversary of GM and Camaro being in a legal document

HAHA now THAT'S a stretch. But still the best argument I've heard so far

What can I say, work is boring today.

[The SwiftChancelor]

Of course there will be a 50th anniversary. I was thinking of going that same route unless they stop making Camaros for 8yrs or so but why would they ever do that?

Umm no that would be a NAME not the production vehicle.
but whatever helps you justify it as a REAL anniversary man.
You can argue with me, but you can't argue with the dictionary.

Maybe write a strongly worded letter to Websters dictionary explaining how their definition doesn't help your argument and you don't appreciate it? lol

Would it kill you to admit you're wrong? You keep stretching and stretching...
I am quoting THE DICTIONARY here, you're arguing against THE DICTIONARY.

I'm hoping for a 50th. I was born in '67 just like the Camaro, and hope to treat myself to a nice 50th BD present.

Hopefully it is something like the 50th Vette. A nice red, maybe a deep candy red, and some subtle badges. No bi-color stripes or glitter paint. I bought an IBM '12, but passed on the 45th ed, the styling just wasn't for me. And I hate black cars with a passion.

Blue or red please. Maybe a return of ABM or IBM? Or even the deep yellow/goldish from Transformers 1 would be awesome.

Examples of ANNIVERSARY

1. the anniversary of the invasion
2. The exhibit will close on the 100th anniversary of the artist's death.

AS I STATED, The act does not have to be repeated. its is the annual recurrence of the DATE the camaro came out (notable event).

If you can't understand that then I dno what to tell you.
