The truth finally comes out about CGM!!!! And it sure makes sense. Although I'm sure some might still try to come up with some kinda conspiracy theory, lol.

There's multiple lines at the plant but I believe they share a paint system. This is the same reason that they will not be offering white til june/july as a different white is already being used on the malibu (I think, or maybe it's the impala as well) until then.

Question for fbodfather, is the plan to have CGM ready by March 16th? Or will there be a constraint on it in the beginning?

If you disagree he will beat you with a 2x4.

Silver Ice is an Impala color, as is Victory Red, and some of the others. They have no problem shooting a Camaro or two through the paint shop for these colors.

The pre-pre-pre production, "IVER" cars were hand painted...but it was a terrible thing. Many of the cars you see running the auto show circuits in fact came from the plant. They've been all "auto-showed up" to look pretty.

Afaik, the only constraint on colors is white. Cyber Gray should be up and ready for production, no problem.

THERE IS NO PLAN TO CONSTRAIN ANY COLOR EXCEPT SUMMIT WHITE, WHICH WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY AFTER START UP.

.........Another exciting episode of .....

"whatever happened to Shunt?"

.............is about to reveal itself..................


like the smelly underside of a slug...............




**screeching violins!!!!!***



**sudden silence**

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

You see -- when Shunt was kidnapped, it started an Avalanche of happenings and occurences that we are only now beginning to comprehend.......



........................and (!!!!)


**sound of audience flinching in their seats**



.............it involves WHY Cyber Gray Metallic is not appearing (as of yet) on any 2010 Camaro...............................



(oh the Humanity of it all)



I'll let some of you fill in the blanks.........



.......but need I remind you that:


YOU



DO



NOT



want


to mention.....


**whispering**

the 'Headlights"

.
.
.
.
.


.......to " Fbod-you-know-who "..........


*rolling kettledrums*


Be listening tomorrow as the many members of the Camaro5 family attempt to 'piece together':


>WHY Shunt was kidnapped

>WHO kidnapped him...........

>WHERE he was hidden.........

>WHEN it was discovered that he was missing...........

>HOW he managed to entangle himself in the CGM conspiracy..........

>And WHO it was on the Grassy Knoll at the GM Tech Center..............







*kettle drum roll goes here*



And another thing............................................. .......................

















........what about the Plea of little "Suzie Lou??"


*insert woman's scream here*




........and now a word from our sponsors...........
