Dear Editor(s),

I am compelled to offer up my quick two cents regarding your omission of the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro from the "24 cars worth waiting for" list in your latest issue. There are more than a few Camaro fansites scattered across the internet, and a brief search can yield that every one of them is gaining momentum in the way of membership and traffic, due to the closing release date of the "Bumblebee" superstar. From the lifelong enthusiast to the casual shopper, the Camaro has a respectable fanbase considering it's not even in the production stage of it's development yet! They are all anxiously awaiting the Camaro's return to the streets to put the monopolizing Mustang in it's place again, and remind Dodge that they can make a pretty car, but as usual they still can't make the whole package work, and make it affordable. There's not much else to say about my disappointment, along with several others on the forum I most frequent (http://www.camaro5.com), and sincerely hope your staff takes a look at who made this list and ask why this American Icon was left out.

Car and Driver - 24 Cars to wait for!!
 
Just got my new issue of C&D and couldn't wait to open it to see the camaro as part of this list and what did I see.....:iono: The 2010 Mustang and the Challenger Vert. Where is the camaro? :iono:

Bowtie Guy Z28 05-05-2008 08:21 AM

Yeah I got mine too. What the deuce??? At least put the Camaro Vert in there since it's further out and closer to 2010.

im no longer a fan of CnD. but road and track is the worst. im writing my letter of complaint right now including my thanks for 'turning me onto motortrend'

they did us a favor
 
I don't think I want any magazines hyping up the Camaro. That's just MORE people waiting in line for one, including people who at this moment, aren't even thinking about one.

People on this site have been waiting an extremely long time for their Camaro.

Let the REAL Camaro enthuiasts have a chance to buy one.

The magazine is helping by not talking about it.

I personally don't want to have to pay even MORE because the hype is so out of control.

Peace

EDIT: I think a lot of people underestimate how popular this car actually is. The situation might possibly be more insane than when the first mustangs were made in 1964. I expect this exact scenario to happen. It probably was a blessing to remove Camaro and bring it back again.

We want lots of people to want the Camaro. If they don't, it will get discontinued early in its revival. If no one buys it besides us rare enthusiasts, GM will decide that the platform isn't profitable and stop selling it.

The new Camaro was featured in the july '07 Car and Driver 20 cars worth waiting for,so chill out. Car and Driver has always been favorable towards the Camaro as have the other big car mags,if you dont' believe me,pick up the book 'Camaro performance portfolio 1993-2000'. It covers most every road test from the car mags of the Camaro from the past decade and i'd say most of the reviews are in high praise of the Camaro,and any comparo it was entered into,it always wins. So do some research before you condemn CaD,it's on your side. They don't need to be bombarded by angry E-mails because some of you have short memories.

Not a memory thing. Is the camaro here?
Evidently they changed their mind. It's not worth waiting for anymore?

KatarHol 05-05-2008 12:50 PM

Why would they feature it again,they also didn't feature the ZR1 and Challenger SRT8 from that '07 issue,why would just reprint that '07 issue over? Everyone knows the Camaro is coming,not alot of people know that a new Mustang is coming in the spring. Are you scared no one will notice the first new Camaro in 8 years,c'mon,it's a big deal,and the car mags have covered it as much as they can with the limited info,what more do you want?? A little time ticker in each issue....6 months until the Camaro.....5 months until the Camaro.??? Be realistic.
