Release Date Information

[ProCamaross]

I talked to my local Chevy dealer & they explained it clear.
The Indy show is in Sept. (I think)
This is what happens:

1 At the Indy Show they have the official
Chevrolet Camaro no changes will be made
Its Final.

2. Production is in Oct. depending on how
fast they get the Cars off the assembly lines
They will trickle down from state to state. to
dealerships.

3. So In conclusion The Camaro will be available
at a safe date end of 2008 begining of 2010
Thats what they can safely say due to it being
so far away from production. but depending on
which states get the vehicle first sales will be varied
so what ever state you live in you might get the vehicle first
and others later.

GM DATE: End of 2008 Early 2009
Production Date: October.
Expected Date October 2008 to the GM DATE
States may Vary.

That's pretty close to what we already know.
Don't expect to be driving the Camaro off the dealer lot till late Feb, early March.

From the dealer stories we've been hearing the last year, yours is one of the rare ones to be in the same neighborhood of information. Hoping this spreads Nationally.

The poll is not needed. The info is not new, but its nice hearing it again

That's pretty much about it. But, I think the first sale of a Camaro could be in late Jan or early Feb. We'd been told that they are supposed to be hitting the dealerships at the end of 08 by Lutz in an interview......but.....that was a loooooong time ago. Things can change. So, I'm predicting Feb.

October is a pilot build they will give to managers and engineers to final test. Any glaring issues can be addressed.

Monday Feb.16th is the scheduled start of production Camaros. Dealers will see cars coming in late Feb., early March depending on distance from Oshawa.

I've posted this here a few times and fbodfather never said nope -nope -nope

My local dealer was told to expect Camaros in March.

There's 296 days 'till Feb. 16. I put a countdown gadget on my desktop.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Circle Monday, February 16, 2009 on your calendar as the date the new 2010 Camaros will start heading down the production line at the Oshawa plant in Ontario.

In actuality, this means it will more than likely be mid-March before you'll be able to put your hands on one at a dealership. That puts Camaro availability about a year behind that of its nearest rival, the Dodge Challenger.

A few GM higher ups have stated that the General will start making Camaros in late 2008. That's true, but, a little misleading. Salable, pilot build, Camaros will be the cars rolling down the line in late 2008. This run of cars will be given to engineers, execs and managers to drive for some fast feedback on any last minute changes that might need to be made to the car or the production process. This production run will not be available to the general public to buy.

For those seeking a convertible Camaro, you'll have to wait until Monday, December 7, 2009 — a little bit late for the 2009 convertible season in northern climates. Look for them to start showing up at dealers in late December or early January depending on where you are in the United States.

It's also worth mentioning that these dates are valid as of today. If the Camaro program should hit a snag in its final testing regimens, delays of several days to a few weeks or months are always possible, but unlikely.

GM executives have publicly said Chevy expects to sell over 100,000 Camaros per year with pricing for the V6 model starting in the $20,000 range.

How in the world did they end up w/ a finalized date?

[camaro5]

I dunno...My local dealer was told by their zone office to expect Camaros on their lot in March. So Feb.16 sounds about right. No?

I'll bet the honorable fbodfather would know!?!
