So, I'll preface with a - yes, I'm a bit of a conspiracy theorist.
I find it very odd that after waiting for months for my preorder 2SS...now, suddenly I've been told (less than a week after GM's filing) that it is being shipped...
So- even my dealer doesn't understand why it has been held up for so long. Why cars are DONE and NOT being shipped. Why have you guys seen car after car behind GM fences?

It finally hit me this week after they declared bankruptcy – I bet my friends I would get the call this week…and I did. I think GM planned on bankruptcy all along. I think they didn't release the cars so they didn’t forfeit the money - they probably didn't even have to pay the suppliers for the parts that are in the cars built prior to Monday (the government will.)

Now - before you think ill of me - my family has worked for GM forever, I worked there for 8 years; I only drive GM cars - no matter how frustrating that can be sometimes...so I'm not trying to knock GM. I'm just mad to think that my car and my order have been used as some sort of pawn in some sort of game. I was at 3400 (Broadcast which usually means it was already built) over a month ago - why four days after Ch. 11 is it now being shipped? Are any of you getting calls now? Hitting 4200 (Shipped)?
I would very much appreciate your feedback.
