So we all know and are pretty bummed about the ABL.

but when the MSRP price came out.... didn't it include ABL!?!?!!?!?!?

With the new post that came out with ABL being an option
further down the road, would we be able to get it for free if
we wanted it? and would we have the option of just gettin that
300 back or put to another option???? just a thought.

let me know what you think cause i think it should be free
if our car was supposed to have it but doesnt, instead of having to
pay another fee!

You want a sticky for this? Seriously?
Sounds like someone's been living under a rock.
Look around this site and you will find loads of info.

Dude, if you got the 2LT or 2SS, you're getting ABL.

In the doors.

I've brought this up before and many on here including some of the mods and I believe the admin also have said that GM should offer some type of a discount since ABl was included in the dash when we first placed the order. However I don't see any decisions being publicly made about this until you do start seeing ABL on the dash in future Camaro's which I think is a big possibility. However I don't think we will be getting anything for free nor would I imagine we would be getting the HUD for free either even if it was included in the 2SS package of the future and was exactly the same price.. However I do agree with you this issue should not be dusted under a rug and forgotten. nor should those who paid for a full ABL (or at least believing that is what they were going to get when ordering since it was in the dealer workbook) and feel they got duped, then some discount should apply. However it has been brought up before that by GM having ABL in the doors only they can get away with saying it was included so that argument has no merit, even though we all know that it does since they did have a picture of the interior with full ABL on their official website and a startup video as well for some time. However GM could also state those were concepts and can point out the HUD was also included int hose video's and picture. However the only difference between the two is that the HUD was something postponed early on since we were informed of it last year, and it took GM many many months before they told us that ABL was only going to be on the doors.. This is why I agree with you that at the very least, GM should do something about this if they do plan to have it in the future if it is something simple to install, which I have to believe would be..

If you are sick of hearing about the ABL, just don't respond.

...or this will turn into every other ABL thread....

The fact is GM's been up front about this, it would have been nice if they had the lighting change worked out earlier, but it's understandable that they delayed the anouncement in hopes of developing a better solution. Full disclosure of what factory ambient lighting would and would not include was made before a single pre-ordered car was built and anyone unhappy with their purchase can simply change their order or if it's somehow ruined the car cancel their order. The only people that have any room for a serious complaint are those who agreed to a non-refundable deposit, that would be more of a problem with the dealer (for having very unfriendly policies) and themselves (for agreeing to crappy terms and giving money to such a place). That's not to say there's no reason to be disappointed that GM didn't come through stronger on the ambient lighting as I for one am definately disappointed. As for pricing, I can see why those ordering the top trims would see themselves as due a small discount, but this is a small decrease in the value of the 2LT/2SS trims its not a big enough change it inherently mandates a price reduction. Dealing with stuff like this is simply the downside of pre-ordering a car before it's actually in production.

I think some people just can't let things go.
