I ordered in May, but my car is not slated for production until September 17th so looks like I am two weeks within getting this option. Sweet! And yes, it will cost you $295 if you already have the car cause it is much more feasible to install this along with everything else when making the car. The cars already sold are too late and that's just the sad way that it goes. Sold as is and pay for extras!

1. You've never had kids have you? 2. Do you read the news? Children are backed over and killed or injured almost every day by people who thought they knew where their children were, or were supposed to be. Children can be unpredictable and sometimes downright sneaky, or the person you assume is watching them screws up. Just because it didn't happen to you or your siblings doesn't mean it doesn't happen. We used to ride around in cars that didn't even have seatbelts (they USED to be optional), so I guess we should all stop wearing them? I wish my truck had them. My neighbors across the street let their 5 year old ride around on his power-wheels Hummer. Sometimes he goes in the street between his and his grandparents house next door in our small neighborhood, somewhat unsupervised. Our driveways line up. Scares the crap out of me because if he were behind my truck I'd never see him. Of course his father often had him sitting on his knee while cutting the grass on their riding mower. Worst part is the kids mom is a nurse! Is it my job to parent my neighbors kid too? Last edited by MLL67RSSS; 08-27-2009 at 01:48 PM. |

Owners will learn to appreciate the rear parking assist. Good job GM!!! I plan on dark tint in the rear so it's only going to help me get as close to other cars as I can when backing up without having to step out and glance while looking like I can't backup!!!

One more thing, I have 5 kids and I've taught them well. I'm not concerned about any of them standing behind me. My youngest being 3 is the only one I would have to worry about, but with dark tint, those big pillars, and other non-attentive dufuses, it's only a plus! And again, it also helps to get to about a foot to another car while backing up without having to get out and look like a dufus or without scraping a bumper while chancing getting close in a tight area. I haven't done that, but many people have. Just my two cents, but I speak from experience. We have the parking assist on two vehicles and it has been very helpful for backing up while not being able to use your brain as a precise measuring tape!
I think GM needs a thank you here for looking out for us and others and also not treating it as a money making scheme. They are including it on three models without charging extra and $295 is not bad either for the added protection it provides!

Thanks much for that clarification. I would imagine it would be impossible to hide the sensors completely, but I hope it blends in fine.

I also thought this would cause more of a stir but I guess the thought police worked overtime. How many of us would have accepted this excuse had we known then that it was basically Grade A bull? Quote:

They should put in a camera instead of sensors. Not just for backing up but so you can look at that Mustang behind U briefly before you smash into the tree ahead of U.

Bravo GM and well done.
I knew rear parking assist was eventually going to be added as an option and am very happy that I will be getting it when my car finally arrives. I was a bit disappointed thinking that I wouldn't get it, so this is really exciting news. As for the excess weight, it cannot be more than a few hundred grams. I work with ultrasonic sensors and they are lighter than an apple. I don't understand the negative response to this addition. Side air bags add much more weight and may never be used during the life time of a car, and yet I think most would agree that they would want their car to have them. I have never owned a Camaro or a GM vehicle and am purchasing this car not because it is fast, but because it is well designed and engineered. And this is further proof that GM is really putting a lot of thought into their cars. |

The Feature that i want most in my camaro is a Heads Up Display. Other then that i don't really care, but mine is just bearly going down the assembly line so i'm not going to get the rear park assist eather.
