Just saw CNBC report about the camaro launch on TV

Hey, just wanted to say i just saw a segment about the launching of the camaro today. They had a panel of 6 news people all talking about it. I just caught about half of it, they had alot of good things to say, one guy said every person he talks to about it is in love with the car and thinks it was a great move by GM, The other guy said he wants a red one with white stripes for himself. The lady seamed very positive about it. There was one tool on the penal that kept being negative about the car, saying they shouldnt be building it since they received tax payers dollars. And everyone kinda tore him up, the one guy was like "IT GETS 29 MILES PER GALLON". Then they asked him what he drove, he said he takes the Metro and has a Hyandai minivan for the family. The one guy says "I'm Sure you do..." and laughs, everyone else on the panel laughs at him, made the guy look like an asshole on national television..segment ends.... Overall really good press they mentioned the new mileage numbers for both the V6(29 mpg) and V8(25 mpg) multiple times, however the caption at the bottom of the screen still read 26 mpg and 23mpg...kinda annoyed me.

I wish it would show up online so i could post it, in some of the other ones they misquoted gas milage, even in the one i saw the captions were wrong, but atleast they said 29 mpg in the interview. Seams like their is alot of misinformation
