Launch Control?

Does anyone know for sure if the Camaro will really have the launch control? I know it was mentioned, but I haven't seen anything confirming this. If it does, is it adjustable? I have a feeling that this feature didn't make it to production.

Alright, I did find confirmation that the manual SS will have lauch control. Now I'm just wondering if it's adjustable.

I've heard mixed reports on whether sport mode for the stability control will be offered. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Here's what I found:

StabiliTrak with traction control (SS models incl. Competitive/Sport Mode and manual trans. SS models include Launch Control)

Where/when did you find that? I know it was mentioned in the introduction materials, but we haven't heard much on it since and I've heard rumors it has since been axed.
