That's how you know GM got it right when all there is to complain about is the lack of an aesthetically pleasing cover for the owner's manual that stays in the glove compartment 99.9999999% of the time.

So not luxury. You would think if you spend $40,000 for a car, the Manual would come in a nice case or holder, not a plastic bag.

What about you guys?

I'm pretty sure the Camaro was designed to be a sports car with a side effect of some luxury, not a luxury car.

Mine came in a big white folder with all my loan papers in it with the dealers picture and name. The last vehicle I got with the nice cover was the 2000 Silverado I had.

Yeha that is pretty bad... All I have to complain about is the NON Manual case... I must admit, I am happy with the SPORTS CAR I bought. And yes it has Luxury. Sorry I complained, but I guess it is just I wanted EVERYTHING to be perfect.

I got a nice one off of EBay, and they are still there, $16 here is a link to the listing, or put in "2010 Camaro Owners Manual Pouch" in the search.

Hey man, no worries... I agree though, little details like that would be nice, but in the grand scheme of things, its negligible...and as shown with the cover posted above, the aftermarket always steps up where there exists a market!

blufin · 12-08-2009, 03:16 PM

mine came in a nifty little black case, not leather, but similar to the one show in one of the posts above. It didn't have CAMARO on it, but still pretty nice.

Steve Dallas · 12-08-2009, 03:20 PM

Just got mine today, salesperson didn't even give me the plastic baggie. I'm ok with that though!

Red Jewel Dan · 12-08-2009, 03:45 PM

Ok for sure that Above item will work nicely. Guess someone is lucky that GM dropped the ball on that one. Oh well I guess you cant complain when you want to be picky.

Thanks guys.

greenrail · 12-08-2009, 03:54 PM

Mine was in a bag also.

Get used to it folks. I believe Chrysler is going to put their's on a Disc soon, if they haven't done it already. (i.e. No Printed User Manual.)

To the OP. This is the dumest thing i have read for a complaint. I mean really???? you have the best muscle car out on the road today and you are complaining about the owners manual bag???? Get a life!!!!

garcmol · 12-08-2009, 04:48 PM

If anyone needs an extra ziploc bag for their manual, I think I have a box or two in the drawer at home. PM me for details! lol

Actually... it's made of rich Corinthian plastic.

Red Jewel Dan · 12-09-2009, 10:20 AM

Oh well the 2009 Mustang that a co-worker has, his came with a nice Ford logo Case. But whatever, since everyone here thinks it is stupid that this thread was even started, I will stop complaining.

And for Phoenix328... I have a life, that is how I can afford the Car and have the right to complain about whatever I want. I wasn't complaining per say, I was just merely bringing up the fact that it was lame on Chevy or GM's part to sell us a Sweet A** Car with a TACKY Plastic bag in the Glove Box.
