I can't get over the quality jump we've made over just 5 years ago!!
The master jigs alone would blow your mind !! Picture a full-sized billet aluminum 2010 Camaro!! I have never seen anything like it!! I hope GM releases pictures of it, because the enthusiasts would freak over it.
It will be cool building these cars , after years of assembling "bread & butter" cars !!!

Judging by the quality you've seen of the stamped panels, would you say the fit and finish of the body is going to be near perfect? That's one thing I'm hoping for is near zero gap tollerance on body panel fitment, to the point you almost can't find a seam anywhere on the car.
