The story is not very clear. Title says "Camaro-based" which means it's a version of the Camaro. Writeup says "based on the Camaro platform". Which could mean anything, including a car that's NOT a Camaro. Either bad writing, or typical teaser GM "fugg with your head" double-speak to confuse the issue and keep you interested.
Tossing in there that 1 of the 6 ads for the Superbowl will feature the Camaro means that they'll have a Camaro ad on the Superbowl. Ok. Means what it says, nothing more. Since they said they're unveiling it in Chicago, you WON'T see any inkling of that ad to the "new" vehicle. If it is Camaro-based as the title says, I'm going to put my money on red...a 45th anny edition. That's my guess if it's another Camaro version. If not a new Camaro, then I really don't care.

DING DING DING, we have a winner......I think you are right, I was going to post the same thing.
I remember them saying that when they were closing down pontiac, that NO cars would be brought to the chevy line.....then a few weeks later they said that the G8 would be brought over as something else.....

This should pretty much put all these wild theories to rest. You guys are reading way too much into the "Camaro platform" comment. It'll be a Camaro model, and it'll be a bad mofo |

I work for GM.
I merely chuckle at the certainty of rumors built on rumors based on what ifs that may or may not be interpretted as fact. One day, some may become truth and some may not, and others may be a shadow of what was once speculation. However, that being said, the excitement around wanting to know what's coming by everyone here (maybe mostly Fenwick) fuels my passion every single day. That is largely why I'm here. Camaro5 is just so full of that passion and excitement. There may not be site on the internet that burns with that fire for GM products. GM is working on some very cool stuff right now. Exciting times are nerely here. That bankruptcy thing got in the way of a few things.

"Camaro-based" Meaning what? Instead of sayong platform based? Since no one knows zeta but they know Camaro..are people just reading to much into things?

Predicting a thread move to General Automotive - Other Cars. Camaro platform based? If it were a new Camaro, no need for the word platform.
I'll bet we will see a school teacher flying through the air in a silver Camaro, and a Packers overtime win. |
