A little LS love

Originally, I was just going to post a few pictures of the ABM LS and show a little love to the LS.

But reading the Home Page today, it turns out this might be the rarest of all Camaros.

1,688 LSs built so far

ABM has the lowest volume at 4.96%

If that holds, that would mean the lowest color penetration of the least produced model. About 85 in the world using simple math. So this might just be the rarest of them all as the color is no longer available.

So here is a link to the gallery and a few pictures to share.

An automatic by the way.................and drives like a dream. Also not a CTF car, this one is a regular production unit.

Thanks for posting these, Number 3. I just don't understand why GM is pulling the plug on ABM so quickly, especially since no medium/light blue is currently available to take its place. This really puts many of us in a quandry who would like to order/take delievery in the spring.

I really think GM jumped the gun on this one....the produced ABM's haven't been on the streets that long yet, and many of the "second wave" of potential buyers are going to be people motivated after seeing how great this color is in person.....and when they find out its not available, how many sales will be lost?

The enthusiasm for this color is unmatched when you look at the post counts on the ABM thread vs the others....translation-Sales of ABM were bound to go way up. Too bad GM didn't allow that to happen.

Thanks again for posting the pics!

Looks just like the LS I drove 2 weeks ago....
Maybe I am old School but I like the looks of the 18" tire size better than the 20" or bigger.. mainly because those others the tire sidewalls look out of purportion to the rims...
