Ummm no. It depends on who's in front of you at your dealer and how many cars your dealer is getting. Larger dealers get more than smaller ones. Unless you ordered from some massive dealer (which I don't think exists in CFL) you won't be getting your car til probably June or so (wild guess).

could that involve finding a way to utilize that couple inches of space between the accessories and the radiator? Might I suggest some sort of second radiator for internal cooling of a 'super' air charge?

If they are testing them with less than two weeks to production (when the pics were taken & only one week today) what changes can they make in time for production?
On going durability tests, crash tests, magazine tests, future development, etc. It won't change anything for production this year but who knows whats in store for 2012 or 2013 models.

After all this time, it is an awesome feeling to be talking about production of the Camaro in combination with those two bolded words!

Now, I thought production wasn't supposed to start till March 16? If that's the case, where do you suspect those to be going?

Its hard to tell, but I don't see too many imperial blue metallic camaro's in there. That's pretty sweet!!

Basically, they are for General Motors. Please go back and read through the threads, the question has been asked and answered a few times

DG, I hate to argue with you and with some others on here, but those cars are not all CTF cars. They may indeed be for General Motors since they own the plant and the cars technically until they get to the dealers. I am telling you those cars are heading to dealers and should be starting to move out next week. Mark my words.

The car in VANCOUVER was # 248. It was made over 4 weeks ago. At 250 a week for 5 weeks there may well be as many as 1500 cars out the door. I Know they laid off a lot of employees, but what will they learn from them this late in the game. They will get better feed back from us with a lot more miles put on.

Are you Scott's Boss, where do you get your information from? You are not arguing with us but calling Scott out on what he told us...
All I know is he said this about ALL the cars

Some will be used for displays - -some will be used for training sessions (product training--)

Most will be returned to Detroit -- gone over with a fine tooth comb -- retrofitted with the latest and greatest 'stuff' -- and then sent to the GM Auction where dealers may bid on them as "used Divisional company vehicles"....so many of them will reach happy owners.

Others may be used for testing at Milford when they return to Detroit -- and some may be used for 'other' purposes....
