I have found bluetooth to be a really cool feature. The added bonus is bluetooth streaming of music as well. Someone calls and you just select answer. Pretty nice in my opinion.

Love it! We are on our second 2010 Camaro and when we were looking for the new one the sigle feature that was mandatory was the bluetooth. She was even ok with a V6

Love the bluetooth phone features. I also like how the bluetooth 'call' contacts can be shared with OnStar.
As mentioned by others, the bluetooth music streaming works great, too.

You press the phone button on the steering wheel and speak the command 'Store.' The friendly woman's voice asks you to speak the phone number, after this you speak a name or place to be associated with the phone number. Once the phone numbers and names/places are stored, you speak the command 'Call' to call the number (e.g. "Call Joe").

I have a question too. Maybe somebody can answer it. So I have synced my phone with my car too, but when I call like my house or somebody else from my car it comes up on the caller Id with a different number than my cell phone number. Do the cars have their own individual phone numbers? Its really weird. The other day I got an incoming call in my car and it was Verizon wireless which I do not use. I have AT&T anyways they were apparently looking for someone that had the same number as my car has? I dont know Im really confused??? Oh one more thing does your bluetooth have to be connected all the time in order for the feature to work? I usually turn it off when I'm not using it. Somebody help?

You say "I usually turn it off"... are you turning bluetooth off or the phone off. Either way it won't work. Just leave the bluetooth setting on your phone to on all the time. When you get in the car you will automatically be connected and probably completely forget about it until your car starts ringing... I love this feature and will never own another car without it... |

Hmm.. thanks maybe I am using it the wrong way. I havent ever used the controls on the steering wheel except to end and answer that one call I got. Usually when I am making a call I use the phone button on the radio cluster. Is that the wrong way to do it? Does that cost extra? I had no idea there was two ways of using the phone in the car. The car phone and my cell phone (bluetooth) I'm going out to try the bluetooth right now. Lol.. As for staying connected I usually just turn the bluetooth off not my phone. The only time I use it is to transfer data, songs etc.. from my phone to another. I had a pretty good idea the bluetooth wouldnt work though unless you stayed connected so from now on I will leave it on. Thanks for clearing things up for me.
