TAG - Sounds like you should follow the guy and be the first cop to pull over a new Camaro. I'm sure there's something on that car that doesn't quite meet all of the laws in TX.

Wow Tag that pisses me off to hear that. You shouldve pulled him over. Did he know that you were a Cop, most people respect Cops a nd would definitly answer questions. hats just sad. Who cares anyway, when you pull him over and he ask "Sir is there a reason why you pulled me over?" You can give a very mean cold shoulder back

Wow! I'd be pissed too...and GM wonders why they can't sell cars! Well, maybe if you take some control of dealerships then you could!

I'm still going to try and go tomorrow...just need confirmation on time and address (for my GPS!).

Thanks!

No wonder they are going(are) bankrupt. Hopefully I can get some more info and actually get in the car tomorrow.

Thanks for the heads up.

It's straight up yellow...no stripes.

The car belongs to GM and is being driven by the SA area GM rep. I believe his name is Gary. He was at Ancira twice and I ran across him over at Ken Batchelor Cadillac off IH 10 at Huebner.


It'll be nice for you guys to run out and check out the car. Hopefully, there won't be any reps or service guys around or they will GIVE YOU THE COLD SHOULDER just like they did to me.

Yes...that's right. I am freakin' pissed off just thinking about it. I was looking at the car. 4 guys including the GM guy come walking back to the car. I jokingly asks who's got the keys. All 4 of them BLOW ME OFF. No smiles, no laughs...nothing.

I ask who's car it was. NO answer. It's like I'm freakin' pulling teeth! I finally give them a heads up for what I do in my spare time...Modding on Camaro5 for ALMOST 3 YEARS...which is a website dedicated to THIS CAR...the one YOU ARE GETTING IN!

GOD does it tick me off. I also mention Scott, John, Cheryl...and FINALLY....the DRIVER speaks up saying it's Garys car and they were headed to lunch. I PULLED for the info of where it would be the next day and they told me out of town at some other dealer.

Man was I ticked off then and I'm ticked off now. POOR, POOR, POOR customer relations. VERY POOR.

GM gives you this car FOR THE PUBLIC to see...to drool over...and to ask questions about. And what do you do? BLOW PEOPLE OFF.

This actually correlates to a message on the Corvette forum last week in which a member posted a cell phone pic of a yellow Camaro on the highway in San Antonio.

I too say you should have followed him and ruined his day. You're above that. Good man. Must not have been in your patrol car.
