Funny how the past seems to be, in a way, repeating itself.
"In the two years since then, you gentlemen of the press, radio and television have literally designed, built and marketed the Chevrolet Panther to the point where we get irate letters from customers, plus phone calls, demanding all specifications and price so they can place orders." Only now it's not the press, radio and television it's GM itself. Wonder if the original date of the Camaro's introduction will have any signifigance to the 5th Gen. September 29, 1966 Would be pretty fitting if they planned to show the production version of the 5th Gen on that date this year. (I never realized the Camaro was introduced on my fathers birthday...) |

Really, a later release date for the Camaro is better for me, since I don't have a lot of money, no credit to take out a loan just yet, still in college, not finished with my education yet.... But I WANT one now!!!

I have a little feeling in my gut, that's not gas.........but has saved my life a few times now, and it's telling me that once Camaro releases, it's not going anywhere soon. We'll finally see that rivalry we've always spoken of, and at $20,000 base V6, we'll see lot's of them in front of Supermarkets...
So bottom line I guess, is that I have faith that GM learned from it's past mistakes, that people really like this car, and that it has a lot to offer to the average buyer. I also believe someone at Ford is coughing up coffee as I write this, scared out of his mind for no apparent reason... I want this car sooooo bad, and right now, too. Every time I see a new-generation Mustang my heart aches - But I have patience, and I can wait untill I'm ready to buy not a 'good' Camaro, but the one I want with everything I want: a 'great' Camaro! Till then, cheers |
