Like mismatched paint on front clips, loose spoilers, leaking oil lines, loose clutchplate bolts, raised center speaker grills, and HVAC that do not work right?

Remember the defects checklists to go over before accepting delivery, I do and I used it.

Picture request

That's great news that they'll be released soon..........

What would be nice is to get some early photos, hopefully from the Oshawa lot, to see how the different color conbinations (body, stripes, and tops) show up.

I know this helped me when the 5th generation was first introduced.

Can anyone at the plant, or living nearby, help out with some pics ???

GM really has it going on these days in the quality department. I'm much impressed with my new SS. I'd say the extra wait is really worth it.

I had a Chevy Traverse as a rental a few weeks ago. I was pleasantly surprised with the level of quality and features, and the 3.6 sounded very good (even though it's meant to be quiet/muted as a family hauler).

I also watched a MotorWeek segment on the new Equinox. John Goss and the 'family test team' were literally glowing about the perceived quality and features. They couldn't say enough good things about it.

So, while I'm anxious to see a drop-top Camaro, congratulations to GM, and every second spent fawning over the details is really starting to pay off!!!

I saw a red one in vegas a few weeks back. It was sitting in front of a group of penny slots at Mandalay bay casino.
