DETROIT — General Motors spokesman Terry Rhadigan has dispelled rumors and confirmed the new drop-top Chevrolet Camaro for an early 2011 launch.

The vehicle was originally scheduled to launch a year after the coupe hit the market, but financial issues and a problem with the German supplier providing the roof mechanism pushed the vehicle back at least six months. Rhadigan said the supplier issues have been worked out and the Camaro convertible will start production in the first quarter of 2011.

What is the guesstimate of the price? NOT even going there about pre-orders!

McGruff · 05-28-2009, 09:13 AM

GM can say whatever they want about the Camaro but it will remain speculation.

They don't know what will happen to the company in a week, much less two years from now. Give me a break.

February 2011, to be exact.......I, however, can't wait that long, I plan on ordering my ABM 2SS/RS M6 sometime this summer

still will have to wait until after I start & finish college lol.

Such a hard decision as to whether I should wait for the vert. I have one now and love it and know I would miss having the drop top. But not sure what I would be risking by waiting so long. Obviously if finances weren't an issue I would be getting a couple now and trading it in for the vert when it comes in.

Do we know if production starts in February 2011 whether this will be a 2012 model like they did with the coupe?

I was initially going to wait for it but 2011 was too long to wait for me so this is way to long.
