I'm so done with waiting for this car already. The hype is going to wear off before I even get to see one in person and I'll want something different at that point....or drop an 8 cylinder and manual tranny in my 1998 Camaro Convertible R/S. So many conflicting reports. I hate this.

If you don't want it, one of us will gladly take your place in line. GM will make lots of these. They will sell very quickly. If you are 7th, then you need to take some responsibility for not being the 1st to your dealer. It could be bad luck or that you waited too long. Either way, you didn't see your dealer in time to be 1st. Deal with it. Some of us don't have money right now and have to wait till 2011 to get it, and some of us—this guy—have to drive ugly wagons that they can't stand anymore until they can afford the car they want. Some of us—me, again—have to pay for a wedding and a move up to Illinois before getting what we've been waiting to buy since 2006. Some of us have to make sacrifices. Your sacrifice can be that you waited a couple more months. Is that really so bad?
Let's say that it is so bad. You go out and get a Mustang GT and love your new American pony car. When the rest of us see you at the track, we'll be delighted to line up next to the guy who backed out of what so many of us consider a dream car for a car that seriously underperforms when compared to the competition.
This isn't directed at you, specifically. This post is directed at everyone who has complained that a month is too long when 3 years wasn't too long in 2006. What happened to being grateful that this car is coming out at all? Let's get back to that attitude.
In short, you aren't screwed until next year, but I think you should suck it up if you were because most of us will be waiting until at least next year, envious that guys who did get one between March and December will be enjoying their cars while we can't wait to dump ours.
