And speaking of typos....Dragon has a point. If you CARED about the name, brand, and mistake that was made in typing, you would have FIXED it..... seeing as though there's a LOT of CamAro enthusiats who truly CARE about how the brand name is spelled.

I'm not trying to be a jerk, Holden. But what's the point in rehashing all of this when you JUST went through it a couple of days ago???
That is how I meant to put it. LOL.

Because this thread looks like 20 pages of mis-information up to this point.

I'm just trying to help you ALL get a handle on reality...

Be wishful if you want.

Gather facts in one hand and wish in the other. See which one produces a 600hp CamAro.

So is there a thread from a reliable source that says there will be NO S/C Camaro? If so please post it in a new thread or pm me with that thread. I am tired of waning though 20 pages of bs to still be left in the dark. I'm not referring to hearsay, I am referring to actual documented interview from a reputable automotive publication?

Personally, I think any/all threads talking about the Z28/ supercharged Camaro need to be locked and deleted.

I'm tired of all the "BRING ME THE Z" or "THERE ISN'T GOING TO BE A Z!!?!?!" ETC.

The ONLY person I will believe ANYTHING about on the Z28, is the Fbodfather Himself.

He should be the ONLY person allowed to post ANYTHING about the Z, THEN we can talk about it.

Just my opinion.

He said no Z28.

prove it.

I want to see the whole quote, want to see where it came from, want to know when it was said and want to know the context of the conversation.

you talk a good game, but since you haven't been in on any of the product planning and development meetings for the Camaro, I dont believe a word you say about the Camaro or the status of the Z28 program... until you've got some HARD COPY PROOF, your best bet is to keep your mouth shut.

WMHolden will only produce an alleged copy of an electronic letter he received. It will be a copied and pasted statement. Thus far, IMVHO, he has no unequivocal proof of what he is claiming. What's a little confusing to me is this meeting was with a bunch of GTO guys or something; I forget exactly.

I, honestly, don't see why there are so many with a view similar to yours. If you were to apply this view to Camaro, before it was even confirmed to be produced, this forum wouldn't be here. I'm all about discussion and friendly talk about enthusiasm and disappointment in this car, but I don't see why there is such a fuss about this particular subject. I can completely understand the frustration in sifting through anything constructive in posts that have no validation, however, we have been given validation by 'Father. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, and I think this forum is a great place to express it. Can't we all just get along?

Speaking of quote, I'm going to jack for just a second - can someone point me in the direction of figuring out how to multi-quote from multiple posts in one response? I've looked but haven't figured it out yet. I'm sorry to
