I think you should, especially if a lot of your height comes from your legs because there is more than enough leg room. There will be NO room for somebody in the backseat behind you though.

Better have my ABL working...

not trying to stir up the masses....but i do need to express my unhappiness w/ hearing this news. ....and I'm beginning to think putting a hold on my order till this gets straightened out once again is in order. I DO NOT want to have ABL on doors only to have it come out later in the production run on the entire dash too. That would just PISS ME OFF!

I'm sorry for my rant. But this is one thing (besides gas cap, b-pillar, etc) that I can complain about and hope gets "completed" before production.


Come on now abl on the doors only thats a joke, Better take $500 of msrp, and hope an after market company sells the same material being used on the doors so i can add it to the dash! Lame

OK.......im pissed, that would just look random and completely hideous. Im hoping we can get this to their attention, because i honestly, and i mean honestly, not because this is a mini rant, i would not like this at all. I would rather not have Ambient lighting and just get my money back for the ABL and get aftermarket to do this. Just think about it, imagine sitting in a car at night, and your doors are just randomly glowing....that would just be stupid. After seeing the video from Dubai, i really want amy Ambient lighting and im with Tag on how i would be pissed, but i would be extremely pissed if they later ran it across the entire dash.
They should just place a roller dimmer which turns of and on and conrtols brightness. It would make this car look more complete, it would not look half-ass and it would make it functional because we have control of it, if its distracting, i can dim it, or just tunn it off.
Can someone start a poll please. I am dissapointed :( Especially after they have talked about it every reveal, and boosted it with Computer generated images all over the place

I'm also 6'4" and had to move the seat up a little bit to comfortably hit the pedals.

I mentioned the dimmer idea to Samantha when she told me and she agreed, but it looks like this is all we are getting...

Maybe we're getting a little ahead of ourselves here? We don't even know the whole story. Let's see what develops.

I agree with those who hate the "door panel only" idea. Please figure this out, I cant imagine this being complicated at all. Its all or nothing, even if there is a delay, I think everyone would prefer a complete ambient lighting system.

This would really, really suck. Maybe fbodfather can chime in and settle the masses with fact.

ok everyone -- I'm a bit tired -- long days and long nites -- so if this sounds a bit harsh -- sorry:

please stop with the speculation about ambient lighting.


We know you love it.

We love it.

We want it right -- and if it ain't right - then we don't do it or we delay it.

now - I'm going to bed --

I was at the Philly event and you won't be disappointed at all with the Camaro! Scott was great to us ! Thank you Scott...He may look tired, but he was as enthusiastic about this car as the rest of us...I'm trusting him on this, we all should too!
