Well here come all the convertible reviews. Too bad most don't seem to like the Camaro much to begin with. Like I said on our trip to Florida it's just simply awesome.

I wish Chevy hadn't given MotorTrend an early-build.....I know it's tough to wait....but the leaking roof was not good press at all.

Those rags' couldn't hit water if they fell out of boat. They also don't know their arse from a hole in the ground. If we're talking about the leak - that's one thing. It's like a broken record with them, though. Whatever - that's why I rarely buy their bias issues.

Generally press cars are well sorted. I am also surprised this happened.

You read where it was leaking? Is that a susceptible area on the top? I've never owned, much less been in a convertible anything...believe it or not...

I don't remember everything I read, but it almost sounded like, when the writer opened the door, the deluge came. It almost sounds like maybe the weatherstripping got pinched or something.

When I had my '95, I had a little drip, that only would happen when I was parked on my driveway. The dealership couldn't duplicate it at first, when it occured to me they weren't duplicating the conditions. After they found a driveway, it happened and they determined the channel in the weatherstrip was blocked. They adjusted the weatherstrip, and that was the end of that for the remainder of the five years I had the car. My '02 never had that problem in the 6 years I had it. Perhaps, this channel was pinched, or blocked, or something of the sort

Talk about bad timing I'm sure it'll be sorted out though. They wet test the cars at the factory, so I'm sure this isn't going to be an issue
