I have not been around much because I've been watching gas hit ridiculus numbers and with fat cat oil boss's saying it will never go under $100 it made think (I still do in a way) that I simply can't afford to pay for the gas for this car.

GM, you did a GREAT job bringing the beast that I fell in love with in Transformers the movie to almost reality. The minor things that are different are just that, minor and the spirit of the car is still there even to production. People really need to give you all a a round of applause because this is as near concept as could be expected.

Like most, we still don't have details so what can we really suggest? One main complaint, and I understanding you were working hard to get it right, is that you did lose at least one customer due to the wait (my brother) and probably lost more due to the LONG wait.

NOTE: But he got a lease, so who knows...lol, wink

Anyway, I have much respect for you all (I love Lutz) and your company has really been doing great lately while still in danger sadly because of the rise in fuel prices + the horrid economy.

With all that said, I hope you realize that weight is the enemy and your lovely Camaro can not be a gas hog if you want it to sell in the numbers to make all your hard work worth it. I for one refused to consider a V6 Camaro, but now because of gas...I might be out of the picture completely while I still hold out hope for the V6 as sad as I am to admit I probably can't afford the V8 beast I wanted.

Is there even a solution...did the Camaro just end up coming out at the wrong time?

Anyway, I don't want to rain on the joy that I know so many of you have right now. It's almost hear (the details) and I hope you all enjoy it greatly.

I'm just bummed that I just don't see this car in my future...basically, I feel like the gas prices has nurtured my sports car nuts...
