Lack of portfolio for owners manual
Does anyone else find it kind of cheap of GM to not give us a nice portfolio
to put the owners manual, warranty book, etc. in. The Corvettes come with a beautiful leather one. Even pickups come with a cordura folder for the manuals. Come on GM, we just have to throw them in the glove box and let them get all beat up? You dropped the ball on that one!

I got the standard dealer plastic case/envelope with mine. I agree a leather one would have been nice, but the plastic one will do.

Make sense for maybe the 2** loaded versions but not the base.
Got to cut cost. I would leave a piece of paper with the manual PDF URL lol. Camaro needs to be a common mans car. It was not intended to displace Corvette as the premium GM sports coupe market wise (Price range). |

That's it! I'm not buying this car! It might have 300-426 ponies, auxiliary inputs, OnStar, leather, an optional Boston Acoustics sound system, a rapidly growing aftermarket, and tons of other goodies, but the manual doesn't come on a platinum platter, bound in leather with gold leaf pages! I'm furious!
Seriously, who cares?
