I was watching Fox 4 News and there was this car in the preview with ABL on the cup holders. Didn't get the chance to see the report, wondering if that was another car or the Camaro.

LDG, just click on one of the small fingernails and it should load quickly and then display a PLAY button. I just checked and it seems to be working.

Thanks HIGHMILAGE! This is great first access since I can't attend until Sunday.

I'm goin Thursday night and i'm not leavin till I sit in one!

1LS, 2LT, 2SS, and a little overview. We had the Camaro covered! (And gave Camaro5 a little shout at the intro!)

You guys are really lucky -- you'll soon be owners of a very nicely integrated car that has a lock on safety, MPG, interior quality... oh, and torque...

Thanks for the helpful PMs and advice. I can't wait to put one through its paces! Maybe we can organize a Houston photoshoot.

Nice seeing you at the show tonight. Good luck with your Camaro.

I can't see the videos from work. I am guessing that they have them blocked.

SO, is there at least one that we will be able to sit in then? How many total? 3 or 4 ??

EDIT: Nevermind, I just found my answers in another thread.

If you can't make it the CarGuy from WBAP will be covering:

"Special CarGuy coverage of the DALLAS AUTO SHOW!

I will be live from the floor of the 28th Annual Dallas Auto Show five times in the next 48 hours. I previewed the show yesterday morning during the Press event and can tell you that it is SPECTACULAR. Even if you are not in the market for a car, this show is a must-see for the whole family.

Join me tonight (Thursday) on TXA 21 First in Prime News. I will be on live shortly after the 7 PM headlines, and again shortly after the 8 PM beginning of hour two.
Then in the morning, I'll be live on the CBS 11 news at 5:50 AM and 6:50 AM with Ginger Allen and Scott Sams.
Saturday, I will be doing the CarGuy Show on WBAP live from the Dallas Auto Show from 9 to 11 AM. I will be joined by the CarGal, and we'll talk to Drew Campbell, the President of the New Car Dealers Association of Metropolitan Dallas. Kevin will be in studio."

Yeah it was nice visting with you. Everyone should know I was the first to sit in the red one at the Dallas show

Those cars were . gorgeous, especially the LS7... I WANT THOSE WHEELS DANGIT! I literally stood there until my feet hurt. Then I walked around and looked at all the other cars before coming back for more standing and staring. I almost felt like I was at a funeral seeing the car for the last time--had a hard time leaving! I cannot wait to get my IOM with CG stripes! If you haven't seen the car in person and you get a chance to go to a show, DO IT. People have said pictures do not do it justice and I am here to confirm that it is 100% the truth. I could not believe how much better the RJT looked in person. I will say the midnight silver was disappointing. They just look to me like they are not clean--like they have brake dust on them. I wish the RS package included the polished wheels. Since I'm griping, the only other complaint I have is the non-painted shark fin. Man, I wish they would paint that! I would pay $200 more to get a painted one! However, these are certainly not deal breakers and this is probably the least amount of complaints I have ever had for any car! I can hardly wait. I can see myself now...

I've went back and forth with the Midnight Silver to Polished ones and I think I'm going to go ahead and get the Midnight Silver and keep looking for after market. I'm not wanting to spend a fortune on them but would like different ones. I also loved the ones on the LS7. Be sure and post some pics when you get yours.
