Wouldn't the pre-production models eliminate the need to hold the car for quality control?

You would think, but you might remember what happened with the 2010's. And this will be a new model, not like the change from 2010's to '11's.
Probably the reason the 'verts are taking so long to get to dealers.

I think they will start build outs for CTF cars around Oct-Nov time frame if not earlier and we will see some on the street during the last quarter of 2011 to provide adequate feedback to the build team before regular production begins in Jan 2012. As for time frame to dealers, I think if the build out goes well and the quality checks on the production models goes well, late Jan or early Feb 2012 is my guess. GM might want to have an adequate amount on hand prior to shipment so that at least each dealer may have 1 on hand at launch with higher volume Camaro dealers getting more due to allocations.

But I highly doubt SG will be around.
I really hope a good looking green is out, or I'm keeping my SS for longer.
None of the other colors do it for me, and I'm not getting another IBM.

Synergy is being dropped for the '12MY and Carbon flash is 'taking its place'.

I think you're right.

That's all I have to say about that.

Took the words (all of them) out of my mouth.

That sounds pretty realistic.

Though, I'm not sure about the importance of getting one to every dealer, since it's not a new CAR...but a model of a car...

Yeah.... I don't think I want IBM again though. And even that color might not even be around much longer.

I love IBM, but I want something that's not so close to black. It's a pain to keep clean.
Also IBM was one of the lowest selling colors in 2010. And I don't believe it's doing much better in 2011. Blues don't have a reputation of being good sellers.
Just a hunch on my part.

I gotcha on the dark-color thing....but not on the other.

IBM is right up there with the others.

I recently put a $500 dollar deposit down at a large and reputable dealership just North of Chicago.


Of course, nothing's official yet from GM and some dealers refuse to accept a deposit and will only create a list.
