That's okay...I'll need the extra couple of months to save up for options


Yeah, I assume March-April, once production starts in mid february 2009.

It felt like they weren't ready.

This is the first time any prospective buyers are seeing the actual car and you're not going to do any type of walk-around? Pop the hood, let us see in the trunk, start it up, rev the engine, HELL, DO SOMETHING!! Stop talking about other cars, we don't care. We want to know everything and anything about the Camaro. PERIOD! Where's the Q&A?

I just hope that now that it has been reveled we will start getting more info and the info we get will be accurate.

Sorry, I'm just very disapointed in the entire webcast. We know nothing more than we did before it went live. The spec sheet is cool, and it gives some great info, but I was expecting alot of the "big questions" to be answered durring the webcast.

Did you see the video on the GM site of the reveal of the Beat, it was a lot more fun, and the scenery was much better too.....

I think if you go to the same site as today and flip through some of the other videos it was on there somewhere, there were a number of different concept reveal videos on there....

Well, the US version is filming later this month, so maybe

Yes, that reveal was a letdown... but i'm still pumped! I can't wait to see the Convertable SS!

And no surprise here, Chevy Canada has no new info on the Camaro. They might have something in the next month.

i thought production started in october, and the camaro got to the show rooms in late feb early march? so if we are looking at the same amount of time, then the car won't get to the show rooms till late june early july.... not that it bothers me that much, but damn....... that is almost 1 year out.
