HTown,

When a person or even a label says "Made in America" it commonly refers to the COUNTRY......The United States of America, not the freakin' CONTINENT of North America.

Does anyone say "Made in Asia" or they say "Made in China", Japan, Taiwan, etc...again, referencing the country of origin.

Carbon Flash Metallic

I'm all about my CGM, but if CFM was available for the 2011 model, I definitely would have gotten it with CGM stripes...

Shadowave · 07-25-2011, 11:13 PM

Any idea when IBM will be back for the 2012 models? I want to order one so I am going to wait it out for now.

Plexus · 07-25-2011, 11:16 PM

Bring back ABM and Synergy Green!

WySilverado · 07-26-2011, 12:52 AM

I bought a Synergy Green 2011 SS instead of ordering a 2012 because of color choices .....

Tysen · 07-26-2011, 08:22 AM

I almost bought a used ABM instead of waiting for the ZL1, that's how much I love that color, lol. (Un)Fortunately, it was gone before I could get to it.

These are cut from two of the emails that i received from Chevy:
*Joe we do plan on offering cyber gray (name might change) and imperial blue for 2012 in a few months.
*My best guess is october production but this is not official just an estimate

Cam#7 · 07-26-2011, 01:19 PM

Well, it sounds like our colors, brochures, and updated chevy website is still a few months off. I'm only speculating but maybe they are releasing all this information with the ZL1. So maybe the ZL1 will make an October appearance. Seems like they've been testing it forever...................

That would be one awesome Christmas gift from Chevy. 4th quarter seems so far away...

philly joe · 07-26-2011, 03:32 PM

I held off buying the 2011 because I wanted the convertible in IBM. My second choice was CGM. I was shut out of both colors due to, let's say, EXTERNAL FORCES. I really don't want to wait for October production. What is the general opinion of the 45th Edition? The more I research this car, the more I like it. I think that I could do a lot worse for my third choice. What do you say?

Amazing color and the value of the package can't be beat.

Have you seen the color in person?

philly joe · 07-28-2011, 01:23 PM

Here is the latest. I got this email from Chevy this morning:

So I although this email didn't confirm a timeline, it does confirm color availability.
The wait was killing me though, so I ordered the 45th AE.
Good luck to all of you IBM and Gray holdouts.
