Indy 500 Edition will not be made available for sale (+ another interesting article)
Saw this article in the Toronto Star yesterday and thought to post it. So it looks like troubled times will limit the "special edition" cars as well. Personally I'm indifferent as I never liked those special editions anyway. Up to 14,000 pre-orders now so they say!
http://www.wheels.ca/article/515140 Here's another article that's an interesting read from the same day. REMEMBER - I'm not the author of the article. I neither agree or disagree with it's content. Frustrating? Perhaps. Interesting? Definitely. http://www.wheels.ca/article/515136

Won't bother me a bit not seeing these pace car replicas driving around. I don't care for em either.

Google Corvette Pace cars, dealers can not give them away. GM may have learned from the past!!!

I'm ok with this. Also, it is encouraging to see the cars will be in dealerships the first week of April. I know this is Canada, but I would not think it will be much longer for the states.
