It's true. The production Chevy Camaro will debut at Indy, but not at the Indy 500 race in a couple of weeks. Rather, General Motors has informed various Camaro fanboy circles that production Camaros will be in attendance at the Indy '08, Back at the Brickyard (http://indycamaro.com/Indy08/showindex.htm) event from September 19-21. The Back at the Brickyard is an event attended by thousands of Camaro and Firebird fans, so it's appropriate that the production Camaro be welcomed into the world by friends. On hand will be a number of different Camaro models sporting the full engine lineup and, of course, all the different colors. Everyone thought GM would wait until the 2009 North American International Auto Show in Detroit to debut its new rear-wheel-drive coupe bearing the iconic Camaro name, but we're hardly disappointed the car will be unveiled more than three months earlier. We may just have to make a special trip to Indianapolis for this one.

Before you plan your trip to the Brickyard, we feel compelled to note that GM has not issued a formal press release confirming all of this, so it's possible some forum members are pulling everyone's leg right now. Thanks for the tip, Tommy!

Stilll....regardless if it was posted....it is still some super exciting info!

General Motors has announced that it will unveil its 2010 Chevrolet Camaro at the Indy 08, Back at the Brickyard Event. However, don't look for the new Camaro at next weekend's Indy 500 — the Indy 08 event actually takes place at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway in September.And GM will bringing more than [...]

im so pissed I can't go

...and the news flashes pour in! :) I merged them all in with this one. You will notice them above...

Awesome, it is about time it is "official". I got tired of hinting at this one.

This is where we will be doing our CamaroZ28.Com member Summit as well. :cz28:

Interesting that this article seems to indicate that the SS model will be top dog.

I wish those releases said something about GM Pace cars being there as well. Need to get the word out to all the pace car owners anyway we can.

Hasn't been confirmed, everything out there of the sort is speculation.

Wow this is so exciting and ironic.........Sept. 19 is my birthday.........this one will be extra special this year.

I was just going to say... Any way to push it ahead 2 days to the 17th? It'd be a great 24th birthday present for me ^_^ A great belated one at any rate.

i may have to make the trip for this...

ill be there....nice having indy only a few hours away..

So obviously we'll be able to see the cars, but will we be able to touch them and hopefully even SIT in them?

Anyone see this update on Autoblog?:

"UPDATE: We've contacted GM to inquire about the validity of this story, and they tell us that the production Camaro will not debut at this event. It will actually debut BEFORE then at a place TBD. Hmmm... what event takes place before September that would be an appropriate place to debut an iconic muscle car? If you'd all like to meet us at the Coney Island restaurant on Woodward Ave. the Thursday before the Dream Cruise, we'll buy you a coney."

Hmmm ... I wonder if dinner last night was covered by the non-disclosure agreement. ;)

This is a true statement. It was confirmed by the Camarol team tonight at the focus group dinner. And no, GM has not finalized when and where it will be yet, but it will be before the Indy event.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm betting on the Woodward Dreamcruise too.

I'm betting on the Woodward Dreamcruise too.

I have no real idea on where or when such a thing might occur. I'm willing to bet that Indy will be the touch and feel event rather than a drive by whoosh elsewhere.

Go to the show thread for some clarification;
