All we do is Sit here and read about what the ZL1 is like in mags and stuff... Thats all fun but it's getting old fast... Really GM needs to step up and meet their demands... We bailed you out remember?

They're working on it. You want them to just half-ass the car so you can get it faster? Come on.

It takes time to deliver a quality product. Complain all you want now, in a couple months you won't even remember any of this. The same exact stuff was said 3 years ago when the Camaro first launched.

Seriously, GM is doing an amazing job in my opinion. They are bringing us a great car and are trying to do it right. People need to relax and show them a little respect for what they are trying to do.

Everyone at GM, thank you all so much for this car I can't wait to get it, but please don't send them until you are 100% satisfied. That way I know I will be 150% satisfied.

I much rather have this happen then to receive the car only to have something break on it. Take all the time you want QC. I much rather have it done right the first time.

Is it true that orders for 2013 ZL1 start mid-year 2012? If so, if delays are pushing the 2012 ZL1 closer to April 2012 delivery, wouldn't be better to wait a couple or so more months for a 2013 which will definitely be better "ironed out" than the beta 2012s? This is exactly the reason why I am not getting the 2012, to allow for bugs to show up and get discovered/reported by 2012 owners to fix for 2013.

Of course I don't want anything wrong with my car... My challenger and Camaro had problems but they went through extensive QC... I'm not mad thT it's longer but they need to stay on track with things... Not push them back and IF there is something wrong I wanna know about it so I know what to look for...

Well i'm not built yet , but i certainly have concern.....why....well i'm glad you asked..some thoughts that there has to be a problem with them..i mean they have had many built for the better part of a month now. I find it hard to believe they haven't had enough time to inspect them for quality. I think they made some adjustments to the CTF cars that need to be applied to all cars in QC. Sorry to all you guys and gals that have been built they all have to be disassembled and rebuilt...thus the reason for the delay in the next order cycle. That means mine will be built correctly the first time and i will receive it before the first 450 built.

Thanks GM,
CAM...ZL1

Depends if you believe the 2012 will be a collectible or not.

I guess we can't drive it in the snow anyways and nobody expected it before mid-March. I just hope it won't be much later though! I'd rather have it sit a the factory getting fixed than at the dealership. I'm going through that with the 2011 Jeep GC and it sucks, especially as the dealer can't figure out what's wrong...

I doubt I will live another 40 years to find out. I don't buy cars, any car, in "hope" it becomes a collectible.

I don't see much collector value in the car if it is produced for 2-3 years. I'd rather have a later one, but was able to order a 2012. Waiting a couple more months may be beneficial if someone can just delay a little gratificaiton a little longer.

Then I'd go for the 2013.

Whoa, hold up folks. It sounds like a lot of you are assuming the cars have problems. There's a good chance there's absolutely nothing wrong. GM's just making sure of that.
