I guess this makes my decision on getting the vert final. I didn't want the extra weight anyways.

About three years ago that's what I was going to do was get a 1st Gen. But I thought I could spend 30-35k on a 1st Gen and it would still need some kind of work. So why not just get a brand new one for a little more and get exactly what I wanted? But now I can't get what I want because the vert is delayed. :( Then thanks to the good people here I started thinking okay maybe I could do 2 5th Gens. But that's still not what I want. I want a freekin' rag top! I understand all the trouble GM is in these days and I AM sympathic to their plight. It's just very very frustrating as I am sure a lot of you can identify with. So what's one supposed to?

Wow, just when I think I can't get a 4 passenger convertible that's fun...
The G37 Convertible pops into my life. GM has almost driven me to the Infiniti dealership with their delay of the 'vert. Yeah, it's probably going to be priced higher than I would've spent on a Camaro 'vert...but it's what I really want. I don't want a Mustang 'vert...and I despise the lines on the BMW 3 Series 'vert (although I like the coupe)... I really want a Camaro 'vert...but maybe that will have to be later on in life...it looks as if I may go back to the Nissan family.

It is a good looking car. I'll give Nissan that. Heck, I like'em and my step mom drives one. But, try to hold out....I know it's already taking forever, but ....or, go buy one and then trade it on for the vert later on! |

That's what I think I'm gonna do. I'll just get this to hold me over until the Camaro vert gets released. (I'm not going over to the darkside forever!)

Well, I won't be buying a foreign vehicle, that is for sure, never have, and never will...so I may just have to get another Mustang GT Convertible instead. I just don't get GM. Why is it taking so long for them to get the Camaro out in the first place? The new Mustang came out in 2005, and here they are now finally going to get it out as a 2010? Heck, it didn't take GM that long to counter the Mustang the first time around in 1964.5 I thought it was all set to come out after the big appearance in "Transformers" a few years ago?
Secondly, why are they going to delay the convertible? Supposedly it was designed from the start to be a convertible as well, just like the C5 and C6 Corvettes were, so I just can't see why they would want to limit sales by not having it ready. Especially since they have had years to do so. Can you tell I want a vert I have always been a Chevy guy, Corvettes mostly, and I only by American, so when we had our two kids, I reluctantly sold my C5 Corvette and ordered a 2007 Mustang GT Premium Convertible, since the Camaro was not available. It was a great car, but alas, we got transferred to Kodiak, Alaska (I am a Coast Guard Helicopter Pilot), which is an island with hardly any roads. So because of that, and the lack of a garage in base housing, I sold the Mustang too since I couldn't stand to see it sit out in the snow and freezing rain. Now I want to order a Camaro for when we return to the lower 48, but it has got to be a vert, so what gives GM? -Buster |
