MSRP is MSRP. The agreement I got from my dealer was MSRP, That's the sticker price when they receive it. If there is an adjustment to be made, GM will make the adjustment, not the dealer. Therefore MSRP would be lower when the dealer gets the car. I didn't sign at ANY price other than MSRP. I will pay what the sticker says.

I don't think they are keeping their mouths shut about ABL any more than they have about CGM paint. If you've stayed up on the threads you know Scott explained that as a no problem. Maybe ABL has no problem. Maybe they want to wait to reveal it like an ace in the hole.

What people are forgetting here is with or without ABL, with or without CGM, with or without turn signals, we are getting a damn nice car. ABL had a very small influence on me ordering a new Camaro. I hope it happens and hope it's awsome, and I think it will be. I am certainly not going to cancel my order for the hottest new car out of the BIG 3 in decades over whether or not it has one particular option.

If it only had the ammenities my '68 had, with the new style and drive train I would still be all over it. I have no issues other than the wait and wondering when I get to drive it and need to change my shorts.

No. CGM has been clearly explained (waiting on the Impala to finish up their current color so they can get the paint buckets switched over).

Rodrunner · 02-07-2009, 09:05 PM

^^^That is correct.

That's my point, there is no problem with CGM. Other than we haven't seen it, why do people think there is a problem with ABL. Rumors? Maybe they are waiting for the right "shock and awe" moment.

I don't see people panicing because we haven't seen a test drive review on the SS. Doe's that mean they are not going to have an SS? HELL NO! That's the ONLY thing that would make me cancel. Not to say I wouldn't consider a V6, nice power, I just hate the sound. I want that V8 rumble along with the beautiful styling. Now that's a perfect marriage.

It's been confirmed several times that ABL is still being worked on and that there's a chance that it doesn't get finished. Scott said that ABL is one of the reasons for the delay as well. It's not like they're not done formulating the CGM color or something. And just today the Daytona 500 pace car was unveiled which includes cgm.

I went to da Chicago autoshow to see my future Camaro and they told me that only the doors are gonna be with the ABL. And maybe in later production it will be on the dash..WTF??

Zeus95 · 02-18-2009, 07:23 AM

As long as they do the upgrade for free once they have the kinks worked out, I'm cool !
Its really not that big of a deal if its just the doors. Just my 2cents.

Everyone says that, but it's highly unlikely.
