Fbodfather - Scott Settlemire Talks About Camaro Progress On Corvette Forum - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

camaro5 · 12-06-2008, 01:22 AM

There was a false rumor on Corvette Forum, because someone gave a sincere Corvette enthusiast bad info about the Camaro SS not being available until August.

I found Scott's reply encouraging in general.

In fact we've built some SSs as well as V6s as part of our early saleable pilots (for captured test fleet -- marketing -- autoshow -- advertisting cars as well as for powertrain and various departments thru-out GM)

Not sure where Montvale got his information -- but trust me, the Camaro is on target - and we're very pleased with how the car is progressing.

Are there some issues? There will ALWAYS be issues with a brand new vehicle startup. (there are with model year changeovers!)

That said -- issues are being resolved very quickly by the great team that works on this car........the Camaro team is PASSIONATE about great cars and trucks........

I saw that and even challenged the info and was heartened by Scott’s response.

Boy, Scott must be on just about every GM-related car forum that exists. Thats cool.

That ~other~ forum used to be a pretty good mix of information and enthusiasm. Key words are "used to be."

Now, it's -----different------

But, that's irrelevant to this thread.

I like GM vehicles. I want a new SS Camaro.

Is it February, yet?

Goodnight.

No....Scott just has lots of "eyes" - and they report RIGHT to the suburbans for action!

Silly boys - discuss the Camaro's on the Camaro forums, and vettes on the vettes..... It's SO MUCH EASIER!
