Windshield Wipers
okay, so in my fourth gen, when you turn the wipers on, they raise about three inches, and then they go about their work. They dont go below the 3 inch raised mark while they are on, delay or hi/low. then when you turn the off, the go to rest at the 3 inch mark, then slide down basically out of sight. i REALLY like this. its all about little details for me.
i know the tens have the new style that uses wind to hold it down against the windshield when they are on...but, do they do the whole slide thing outta sight thing? and, where are the washer sprayers at?

the washer nozzles are on the hood on the corners of the "hump", "cowl", "power bulge", whatever ya wanna call it. But they are out of the way and unnoticable. Not sure how the wipers work though but I do like the way they work on the 4th gen.

Look at some of the pics with the hood open and look on the hood itself and you can see the hoses going to them. They are pretty well hidden though. Now if we could only get GM to pay attention to detail like this with other small, minor things like... I dunno, wheel weights on brake calipers and rubbing battery wires....

Oh, you didnt get the e-mail???? If you pre-ordered your not getting your car. The money you put down was bail out money and it was just a survey to see if anybody would order one. And paint is expensive! The only reason the price of the Camaro is so low is cause they saved all that money by NOT painting the 4"x5" antenna! Well, that and they switched to GEICO...

yeah, i understand not painting it, i also understand the lack of any kind of badge on the passenger side dash. it kept the cost down, and after all, these are high performance cars, its important for the passenger to keep their eyes on the road!
