Stripes that go onto the header panel as they are supposed to do. Mailslot delete and some different hood options would be nice. Gas fill behind license plate and maybe tailights that are closer to a 69. Hey Dragoneye look I didn't rant about my top.

Would love to have a real Nav system built in, could even be Onstar but with a real nav interface.
Directional lights on/in the mirrors.
An automatic cover for the soft top instead of the current clip on cover.
Some better looking Ground Effects packages.
V6 performance package.
Rear seat lighting.
Pop up windrestrictor behind the rear seat.

Janet, it seems you are the first person associated with GM to admit there really is a problem with the top. I'm glad that there is an acknowledgement, it takes the edge off of the 10 months of waiting to get this fix. Thanks

It was hard to hold back wasn't it Spike?

I completely agree with several already mentioned items, such as, the hood, spare tire, bigger sun visors (with lighted option on pass side), re-design the center console for sunglass storage, etc., and I would add to remove the AUX/USB port from inside the console storage to a different location (possibly the backside of the console). Raise the passenger seat up about an inch, so our vertically challenged passengers can see outside without needing to bring a pillow to sit on.

Well they opened the door and I had to walk thru. All in fun

Would like to see tap-shift added to the stick (or why not install it in both locations) and the radio face plate needs to be scratch resistant.

Actually, I like the USB port hidden so it keeps the ipod out of sight - but no reason another port couldn't be added.

How about a Z28 vert!

['11 cyber grey vert]

definitely scratch resistant radio display.
better materials on the door sills so that they don't scuff as easily.
some kind of extra roll protection maybe behind rear seats combined with wind resistor.
better tonneau cover, maybe automatic and not a manual tonneau.

cooled seats also great idea.

when car is turned off, drivers seat slides all the way back to make exit/entry easier and returns to set position when car is started.

maybe exterior key for trunk ie like behind license plate as found in the 3rd gens.

locking gas flap controlled by lever in car

better infotainment interactive nav system

interior ambient lighting in footwells and cupholders as standard in certain models


Janet, thanks for acknowledging there is a top problem and keep pushing for permanent fixes!!!

[zandron263]

Automatic cover for the top would be nice, and extending the ambient lighting to the dash

[Augie1978]

The fog lights should be halos also.

Well, there went my contribution

Satellite radio delete option to get rid of shark fin. I understand the business reason for it and the fin is about as well done as possible but would prefer to not have it at all on such a great looking back end.

She is asking for your input on any changes you'd like to see the Camaro as it develops and moves forward. She copy-pasted that message in all the main forums, it was not a shot at convertible owners/top problems.....

Please take advantage of this direct line to the Camaro team, and provide constructive feedback, knowing full-well they're aware of the top issue.

Thanks...
...as another Focus Group member, I realize the top is a sensitive issue for vert owners (as it should be), ...but we're the messengers.

...though not always posting , ...we're 'taking notes' and bringing them forth.

I'm real happy with mine (no problems with the top yet) and just have a couple of minor suggestions.

Cooled seats would be great as an option. I realize they add weight and cost and a lot of folks won't want them but my last car had them and they are great here in Arizona where it is hot several months a year.

The radio really needs a more durable display surface. Mine is only 3 months old and when the sun hits it there are a million fine scratches and all I have done is to wipe the dust off with a cloth.
Added: Making it less reflective would be good, too. It is impossible to read with the top down and the sun hitting it.

Added: If possible, a little more storage space in the center bin.

Thanks for asking.
