I to have ordered a 2LT, manual trans and I have been at 3000 for about 5 weeks. I placed my order on Oct 13th, it was "pushed" to the plant on April
2nd. Still no movement. Any dealer that I talked to knows nothing about any problems with the trans.

they dont know because they dont go on Camaro 5 and GM has not really told the dealers, but they did address it in a podcast on camaroz28.com and an engineer told us a while back.
They will begin building these in about 2 weeks for sure, but this week might be a trial week. Hopefully we start seeing these cars get built

Talking

I'm on a business trip this week. My dealer called my cell phone and said that my car "is being built now"I asked him what "now" meant and he said this week. He had talked to the regoinal manager and he said GM is not giving out TPWs but that when my car went to 3400 it meant they are building it very soon (this week). My salesman said he will look on Wed or Thur for an invoice and give me an update.

That is great news Bull, lets hope to see a vin soon, and hopefully no QC hold! There might not be QC hold because im sure they have been testing the new spec parts, maybe they were waiting for test cars to pass a certian milage. So lets hope to see one delivered, i wonder who willhave the first delivered M6V6!

I'm pretty sure there will be a QC hold. At least until they can run some miles up on the first handful of line-produced V6M6's.

You would think that they would build extra CTF cars for this testing instead of doing the testing on production cars. And they should have done this testing before they even thought about using the new parts in production cars.

I personally think they are doing the testing on V6 manuals, they clearly have the parts for it. Lets hope we seem some vins this week and hopefully one delivered next week.
Called my dealer, im still at 3000 with June 1st build. Dont want to sound selfish but i think that GTO72 and others who have had bumped TPWs be bumped back to this week if they are being built. But i guess not. Atleast if my car gets built first week of June, i should see it about a week later if there is no QC hold

i was told that my car iom 1LT/RS 6 SPDM was to be built on may 18-21 witha delivery in early to mid june. i went today and the looked for 5 min and came back and said there was ni change and it looked like another month - 2 months before i see my car.meanwhile they had 7 allocations mine was #4 and they got a floor car...sold 5g over list , a car from citi stadium 5g over list and they bought allocation #6 and sold it 4500 over list.i got a real bad feeling and may cancel my order.this is no way to treat people who now own part of gm and are keeping food on their plates.

Theres a couple of things you have to do.
First- Dont panic
second, did you see the workbench for yourself?
If your car had a TPW of May 18th, and theres no change as you suggested, then you will see a vin this week, and if your lucky, and dont get stuck at QC, you might see your car within 2-3 weeks.
Say hypothtically that there is no QC hold on the new V6 M6 batch of cars, then your car will be delivered within 1-2 weeks.
If you have stripes ordered, it might take a couple of days more.
There are two things i can advise you to do, the first is to go to your dealer and check your Workbench for yourself. Look for your event code, and TPW.
The next, well first of all, did you and the dealer agree that your car will be sold at MSRP? If you did, did you get it in writing?
Many dealers have sold the demo cars for quite a bit over MSRP, which is not fair, but thats there buisness, but they are still holding onto their agreements of selling the sold units at MSRP. There are those who are selling all their cars above MSRP and there are those who are selling all at MSRP, like Camaro Scotty.
So hopefully this helps you out. I hope everything works out for you!

More progress!! Just found out that I went to 3400 last week. My dealer said that he sent me an e-mail, but I didn't get it. It is possible that my TPW of this week might hold up. I'll just keep checking the VIN list every day!
