Meh, they are "wonderfully" looking cars. Too many problems in my first six months of ownership to be a all around "wonderful" car. Just sayin...

Guys this is called baiting.

Kinda mean spirited if you ask me. But I'll pass on any conversation.

They're not. However, there's obvious and irrefutable evidence that there ARE numerous issues and potential issues with a fair number of 5th Gen convertible tops - and that's only from the limited number of 5th Gen Camaro Convertible owners that have registered on C5 and posted their experience(s, that we know of.

As has been mentioned several times in other threads, who knows the REAL NUMBERS of how many 5th Gen 'vert owners who have / had problems that don't follow any of the various 5th Gen online forums.

The overwhelming majority of us are "in-the-know" about the "open recall" regarding the top.

In response to your question regarding what the problems with the vert are, you can't miss the Thread Subjects if you just browse the convertible forum. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=133. You just can't miss them.

Search, read and ye shall learn.

BTW, welcome to the forum.
