I would bet good money there will be a 50th... it has not always been on the "5's" ... my first Camaro was a 30th anniv. addition in 97.

you can't add 7 years of non existance to the timeframe that doesn't make sense. I am actually laughing that you got people to agree with you on this lol




you left out this part...

"the annual recurrence of a date marking a notable event"
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/anniversary
You must think you're George Burns (God).
You cannot move the wedding date up 7 years. It would be the 50th anniversary of the wedding date. Whether you took a hiatus or not it doesn't change the date of the event. That's the what the 45th anniversary edition celebrates the 45th year since the first production year. You are beyond laughable.

This conversation is over as I no longer find it interesting.

Definition of ANNIVERSARY

1
: the annual recurrence of a date marking a notable event; broadly : a date that follows such an event by a specified period of time measured in units other than years <the 6-month anniversary of the accident>

2
: the celebration of an anniversary


See anniversary defined for English-language learners »

See anniversary defined for kids »

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.

This. Glad I didn't have to type all that, ja ja.

I've learned that people will take definitions (and statistics for that matter) and twist them to suit their needs. It's part of life.

The rest of us here understand that the notable event is the first year GM introduced the world to the Camaro, but this fella is stuck on the fact that they didn't produce them for awhile.

I get where him and a few others are coming from that it feels a bit funny, but still, the notable date (in this case generalized to a year) is the first year a Camaro was produced. That won't ever change, no matter how many people illogically try to interpret a defintion of a word.

Let it die. LID.

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.
Now this is interesting and prolly to Belle's point. So, yes, I like the idea of a candy apple red and I like the idea of it being subtle, and furthermore like the idea of a Z28 previously and I am also hoping that the 6th gen will look like the 5th gen just better, if possible...

Anniversary is the celebration of a notable event, not the notable event happening every year.

50th Anniversary of D-Day does not mean D-Day had to happen every year.
50th Anniversary of my wedding does not mean I get married every year.
50th Anniversary of the Camaro celebrates the first production of the Camaro, not the fact it was made every year.

edit: Sorry OP. I'm with the other, the 50th should be something special without being too flashy like the 45th. I would say use a few of the colors from the first production.

hmmm maybe we can help GM out here. What would be the perfect 50th anniversary theme?

Flashy or subtle like the 45th?

I like the idea of a candy apple red. Maybe black stripes with a white outline? Factory black wheels instead of chrome or silver.
