All I can say is that for what its worth - when a dealer tells you they already have 60 solid orders for a car of this type in the middle of a recession - that has to be a good sign.

There will be a lot of variation from area to area around the country depending on local job situations

Clearly we all hype ourselves up in these sort of communities - but taking a step back and looking at the value offered by the Camaro - it does give a massive amount of value for money and is a distinctive car in a time of windtunnel designed lookalikes.

The Transformers angle is interesting and good marketing for "cool dad" factor - but really just acts as an opportunity to get the look of the car in front of non enhusiasts to get them looking at next level of details.

I believe that the biggest success factor for GM will be to get cranking on reliable high volume production and have a good active number of these on the roads to stimulate interest.

- and on that basis they should prioritize build of all the IOM and Yellow ones since they will be most visible
