i'm not worried about this. GM will get it right for everyone with the 2LT and 2SS. i do hope they can make it a part we can order through GMPP so i can get it in my 1SS

I just looked back at the March 2006 issue of Motor Trend and the concept Camaro featured had the radio station channel and volume level lit up inside the ABL above the radio. Damn cool and I wish it was gonna be this way, but I've not seen it mentioned ever again.

Here's how I see it....don't delay the launch. Just do it this way... See all those orders for the LS, 1LT, and 1SS?...withOUT the ABL? Build those puppies first. There's nothing wrong with that. GM wants to try and dish out a bunch of cars but has an overwhelming amount of orders? Hell...this is the perfect way to get cash rolling in while still fulfilling their obligation to the customer...bringing out the new Camaro. I know GM said they would build only so many SS's at start. But, why not "tweak" that to only building those w/out ABL....makes sense to me. Win/win for GM and those who ordered it without. Then, just a percentage would have to wait. |

Tag,
I agree with that approach for ABL. Could be the same for the stripe disaster. Hope so. |

ABL is a cool add on feature, but it's certainly not why I was buying the Camaro. I can see it being something you use for the first few weeks then never again. Who wants to drive around with a glowing car all of the time? I can see using it when you are getting in the car at night instead of the overhead light, but really, why would you need this while driving down the freeway? I'm not trying to start something, but I just don't get it.

I think that's an awesome thought TAG! Can you say CONSTRAINT on 2LT and 2SS?? ...and a constraint I'd be happy to wait through might I add!

Geez Copo. You are truly a broken record. Being a Mod on another site, you would think you would be able to word things a little more thoughtfully. |

I for one would like to know exactly when GM realized they couldn't reasonably produce the rally stripes as they had been showing them, how long it may have been prior to our pre-orders and why they withheld that from us, if indeed they did. But surely they must have come to that realization early on. Did the initial installers tell management it was a piece of cake? No! They said, "Do you know what a f***ing pain in the ass that was to do? How do you expect the people at dealerships to do it?" It did not involve a technology hurdle, simply a "can we do it large scale or not" decision. But we weren't privy to that info. until much later. At least with ABL, it appears they believe they stand a chance of overcoming the hurdles and producing the product for us as shown.

Post 106 above is Getting personal again. My opinion about the product is consistant with board rules, but being called names is clearly against board rules and this is not the first time.
Moderators please fix. |
