From what I remember from a recent thread posted by a dealer - allocation for 2012s will be available to dealers in May. Production of the 2011s will end in July, and 2012s will start production shortly thereafter.

2012 production starts July 18th. 2011 production started June 7, 2010. We should hear about the 2012 details in May. Right now I'm sure they're busy building and selling convertibles; so 2012 details are probably not a top priority unless sales start falling off.

I remember seeing somewhere that GM's going to change the interior styling and use LED tail lights, maybe different mirror design too. I think I read this on this forum a while ago but not really sure.

Here we go...

It was never stated that they were changing the mirrors or the tail lights. They spotted the mirrors and tail lights in Germany and are speculated to be for the foriegn market. The car was then again spotted in Arizona (somewhere around there) with a few other test mules. They MIGHT be for the American market (i hope not) but it never said anywhere that they were or were not a 100%. As many will agree the dumbo mirrors and sunglass tail lights are pretty much awful on the car, for the most part. As for the interior they have rumored of MINOR interior styling changes but it hasn't been confirmed as of yet either. Only time will tell FOR SURE what's all changing but we cant say they will or will not at this moment. Hope this wasn't taken as a direct attack at you because it wasnt, just wanted to clear things up.

Well it's at least months since I read it that's why I said I'm not really sure. I'm sure you still remember those threads that I'm talking about.

Well, minor or major changes, they are all rumors right now

I doubt there will be any major changes. It just came out, and is selling very well. They aren't going to mess with a good thing. Also, look at gm's history with camaros. Basically, each gen gets a ten year run with a minor update 1/2 way through. I know there is talk of a 6 gen in 2016, but I don't expect to see that until 2020.

I would say whatever the changes may be it would not be more radical than the zl1 I would imagine.
