Yes i have seen this as a total disdain for that model. I am sure that there are GM models we may all want to forget as well. We know they exist at Ford, look at some of the Mustangs' built around 73ish - 76ish... What were they thinking.....

GM has made what appears to be a fantastic product in the Camaro that appeals to a wide demographic or car enthusiasts and not just traditional pony/muscle/chevy car owners. This car needs to be bought by lots of people so that they can see that yes domestic manufacturers can make a quality product and not just a cheaper one.

While I won’t let people sway me from buying a car I really want if there were two that were close and the community of one were asshats and other wasn’t well it could impact. Again not saying anyone here is an asshat.

Do you mean assclown?

asshat is just as, if not more funny than assclown.

There is only one thing that is essential for the "Big 3" to Survive.......GOOD PRODUCTS! Not message boards, or others opinions........just good products PERIOD!

Thank You GM for the awesome designs lately and the much improved build quality.

And without the great build quality and cars people want, why should they survive..........you reap what you sow.

I've owned Ameican cars most all my life but I have bought, fixed up and sold some ricers; However, truth be said, I'm not loyal to to any one particular brand or model which is seen in my Garage/driveway. Two 94 Mustangs, an 89 Dodge Ramcharger, a 79 Pontiac Trans Am, BMW K1200LT and Honda 250 Motorcycles... (My Daughter drives 1 Mustang and the Honda 250). Price, design, and drivetrain is what I look for (a Good deal). I was not to impressed with to many the models of cars put out after 90! Those old lines from the '60s-80's had just about disappeared. In 2005, when Ford brought out the retro Mustang, I once again got the enthusaism to want a new car until I saw a drawing of the now 2010 Camaro in 2006 and so waited to see what GM would come out with and I was very impressed with what I saw, not with just the HP, but the overall design, the many articles I've read on the handling and so that is why I ordered it. Now sorry if any one gets offended by any of my lack of loyalty to their brand, but that's me.... a enthusiast of mechanical engineering and design!

been makin my way through life with a 92 Jeep Cherokee, 05 Ford F-150 FX4, 07 VW Jetta Wolfsburg...and the '10 is on order. I buy what I like, what suits me at my current state of life, and what I perceive to be a value... I'd say I stick to my americans, or my germans... no asian vehicles.
