This is a great accomplishment and i would like to thank all of you here at Camaro5 for helping to make this happen . I don't know who the lucky owner is, but this is truly a special moment for everyone involved. Thank you all for supporting GM and Team Camaro

We do have the greatest customers .

Now bring on Convertible VIN # 000001

Congrats to all you wonderful people working on the Camaro... You have done one heck of a job

Everyone should have signed and dated inside one of the body panels, so when someone goes to restore it in the future it will be even more special...

Speaking of the Vert, are they doing any tooling up there for it yet?

100,000 Camaros a Year
Lutz says GM must reach sales goal if concept is built
AutoWeek | Published 05/15/06, 2:59 am et

Product chief Robert Lutz thinks General Motors can sell more than 100,000 units of the Chevrolet Camaro -- and says that's the number required for GM to build a production version of the concept unveiled at the Detroit auto show.

GM is doing "intense work" on engineering for a production version and analyzing the business case, Lutz, GM's vice chairman and global vice president of product development, said in an interview with Automotive News.

He added: "Is it an approved program? No."

In January, Lutz said he expected a decision on building the sporty coupe within six months. GM executives have strongly hinted they will build the Camaro.

Lutz says GM wouldn't consider building the car unless it could sell more than 100,000 a year. He says the Camaro, a car he describes as "a little bit off to the side" of mainstream segments, would draw new customers and promote GM's product quality.

The Camaro would be aimed at the Ford Mustang, which sold 160,975 units in the United States last year. In the peak years of muscle-car coupes, the Camaro sold 200,000-plus units.

The Camaro would be part of GM's coming lineup of midpriced to premium-priced cars on a new rear-drive architecture developed by Holden. North American production of those vehicles is expected in 2008 or 2009.
