Let's see now:

GM is dropping the ball because they aren't adevertising the car.
Eh, they should only advertise when they have a finished product. They have enough preorders to last till September, might as well advertise when people can go get the car instead of wait in line.

Who said that? That's just dumb.

If you follow anything for 3 years it might start to wear on you a bit. I can only look at pictures of a car for so long before I get tired, but the car in person will be a whole new experience.

Chevy hasn't made any website updates. They should 301 redirect to this website instead.

300+ hp on a V6 is pretty damn sweet if you ask me.

I disagree. Most cars out there are starting to look the same. The Camaro's muscular styling stands out amongst a sea of Japanese and Euro looking cars.

Well really, we've already said everything there is to say. All that's left is nitpicking.

It's just impatience pure and simple. There is just nothing to legitimately to complain about with this car other than waiting.

Except a new hatred for Rick Astley.

I'm still mad that the Camaro doesn't transform into a gigantic robot with cannons.

There's as new thread. What's the latest news on the missle launchers. Maybe that's what the delay was for?

They don't meet safety regulations. Something about the guidance system I think.

If it was ambient lighting, then I figured GM would be able to figure that out pretty quickly, but a problem with the rockets is going to be a much more involved problem. I hope GM manages to build appropriately destructive weapons in time for launch.

I heard from a relyable inside source that it was the targeting instrumentation that had bugs in it. Still a helluva deal for under 40k.

Heyyyyy, there was no scolding intended, just an observation. Everyone one of the gripes is valid. It just seemed to be taking on a bit of a negative tone.

And besides I had fun trying to convince ArcAngel that the V6 was just fine.

So simply an observation. Every concern or complaint you guys have is an opportunity for GM to do and be better.

And to further prove that I have improved my advanced use of smilies:

At the same time, I agree with you a lot Number 3. I think lots of people will be eating their words when they see these cars out on the streets and at dealers. Great work GM! Can't wait to get mine.
LOL... Most of the time... Bench racing can only be done if the Camaro wins...
