Update...........according to our neighborhood spiritualist, whose had contact with Elvis, claims the V6 gauge fonts are painted on by under aged Chineese labor party members.

I recall reading in elementary school a autobiography by a member of a sect of weary pilgrams who escaped tyrany and landed upon the shores of some nearly obscure location.....................all of this whinning & complaining, just because they were being ridiculed ( Well, jailed & beheaded) over their complaints. It seems or at least it was their preception that things were'nt as well as they should have been for these ungrateful wayward souls ( obviously just a mistaken case of complaining over taxation with-out representation)............I can't recall if they ever complained over the prison food or not,,,,,,.I'm sure the authorities (The tyrants doing the JOB) on the subject/s OVER THERE.............believed they were getting all they (The Poor complainers) deserved, and how dare anyone ever believe.......... improvements, expectations, and individualiziam makes the world a better place.

Chevrolet is using unmatched styled accessories on the 12's, period....thats a very valid point of contention. It may very well affect the sales of the model.............Lord knows who financed the last century of goofs at GM.

What if Chevy had over anticipated the number of production model components needed for euro spec cars and decided to use those speedo's with Kilometers inplace of MPH on cars for southern North America............ simply because they needed to use them up as a cost cutting measure? I'd think plenty of consumers who walk blindly in the dark, and take solice in taking jabs at folks like the OP would be howling angerly until the sun arrose............

What if GM has a warehouse full of mismatched tire brands and decided to put a inferior tire on the front of your car, or different brand on the front and rear, or the left or the right side of these cars. How about white walls on the front left and right rear, and black walls on the others....

......as stated, and its my opinion as a consumer, that you can fool some of the people some of the times, but not everyone.............as a comparo, I can recall a time when the slab of beef on a quarter pounder at Mickey D's weighed a quarter of a pound after it was cooked. Now-a-Days we are expected to accept per the nearly invisible writing on the carton, that that definition of a quarter of a pound is the pre cooked weight, as a by product.....the burger has shunk, the bun, the condiments to cover it, the package. Yada Yada Yada.......I know, who cares, if the pre cooked weight of the patty is 40% fat.. That is until theres no meat left on the bun. No wonder school children haven't the slightest idea of what a quarter of anything looks like.................they've all evaporated, so have expectations of what the value of a quarter of consumers hard earned wages should garner them while making purchases.

Yet the prices of consumer goods continues to skyrocket..................so has the cost of automobiles including Camaro's. One reason for the decline, might just be......Consumers are tried of not getting what they're paying for. Personally, I'd like to know that I'm getting a full serving of what I'm paying for..............thats on top of actually having my appetite fulfilled. Why are we agreeing to settle for less as consumers in the market place?

I dont intend to be rude here here but 1) you need to get laid or (2) the car is what it is. 35k for raw power.

You've got to be joking friend If 35k or more spent is simply for power.........I'd marry a angry $10 hooker addicted to steriods, own a "free" skunk with a over reactive gland as a pet, keep a .25 clove of garlic pinned to my nose ring............. and put the $34,989.75 in the church offering plate.........the raw power of miracles, endless.

I'll take your 4-gauge pack if you don't want it.

,...............wow............


OK -

Fonts on a 2010-2011 SS were one type - Fonts on a 2010-2011 LS/LT were another - and when you purchased a 2SS or a 2LT - the fonts on the 4-pack gauges (which are standard on the 2SS and 2LT were the same regardless of whether it was an SS or an LT.....

We changed the fonts on the 2012 SS. The Fonts on the 2012 V6 remain the same as do the fonts on the 4-pack gauges regardless of whether it's a 2SS or a 2LT.

As an explanation to the 'cost' issue - go look in this section about the fellow who was complaining about the owners manual not having a leather cover........

Honestly?

I talk with thousands of Camaro owners during the year - and I have never once had anyone complain about the fonts on the 4-pack cluster.
