I would probably be ok with 370 also but I had that 400 mark in my mind. If the car is below 3600 lbs 370 is just fine. 400 is better

As far as the ignition goes, I had really hoped for push button start, but given that we knew that was out, dash mounted is really preferred. I thought a lot of manufacturers were going that route for security. Someone broke into my sons Monte Carlo and sure enough, broke the column trying to get into the ignition. A dash mounted ignition seems much better to me.

Well, keep talking about the in-dash ignition. Maybe if demand is high enough (I certainly want it) then we can convince GM to do it.
The shifter definitely looks like some generic autozone part put in there so they can drive it until the real part is finished, so I wouldn't worry about it. |

I think I am bummed about the radio look, It may limit the choices on e might have if they want an aftermarket solution, like Navigation ! (I get lost and hate to ask for directions) lets hope GM offers a NAV option. Quote:
I think it in keeping with the Retro look, simular to the mustangs, although I think the qauges are a bit deep like the mustangs, it's a feature I did not like.

Amazing! I can't believe they have a torque gauge. This car is going to be a hit!

I have an observation,
you know the icon that has an arrow that shows you which side the fuel door is on. look at the Camaro Pic. the arrow is pointing to the right, on the concept it was on the left? and we have not seen the right side of an un Camo car yet, just an observation thats all.

Looks great man!
Frankly, I don't care where the ignition is as long as this thing turns ON.

I'll say more about the interior later. I just got my wisdom teeth taken out, so I'm going to lay here on the couch and watch a movie. |
