syr74 you need to remember the database they are getting the numbers from doesn’t' track every Camaro built. I have been told it only takes into account only car sold in the US and even then it doesn’t capture all of them, as which I can attest to since mine is not listed in it and I am a US sale. As of the same date The Viz was handing out vin numbers in the 52K range which is not bad for a car that came out in the middle of the model year. So 52K plus cars in 7 months is not bad.

But you do have a point on the V-6 sales and like the rest of us I hope they do increase after those of us that are preordering V-8's die down. I know I saw bulletin from GM somewhere on here talking about this exact point they had said something to the effect that in order for the dealers to order V-8's for the lot it could only be if they kept the 60 (V-6) -40 (V-8) ratio.

I got my LS yesterday, and am loving it. It's everything I could have hoped for except one thing. It's governed at 190km/h, which I hit in 5th. That's pretty quick and it feels pretty quiet and solid still at that speed. It's kinda sad because I know it could go so, so much quicker.
