Perhaps a little early? 2007 NAIAS speculation!
Just over ~3 months to go, so what do you think we'll be seeing there for the Camaro? 
In light of recent rumours (un-confirmed as of yet) that Camaro production is "moving along well", and that production could begin nearly a year EARLIER than officially announced, could we expect to see a (pre-) production version in January at the NAIAS??
If the car is REALLY moving along that quickly, and GM might have it in production by the end of next year, I can't see them keeping it under wraps too much longer? 
What do you guys think??

Maybe some different models??? Perhaps a Z/28 and maybe an SS model? To start gaining interest in specific camaro models? A vert would be cool too...

It would be cool to see a convertible version of the Camaro at the show, however I'd like to see something more REAL / OFFICIAL (regardless of roof / no roof) in terms of both appearance and POWERTRAIN
. I'm sure everybody would at this point?

Check it ...
At this point, who knows? Even a couple of our resident "people in the know" seem a little stumped on this one . There hasn't been anything else said to confirm nor dispute this since .

Check out this weeks podcast... The guys called Les Jackson who claims he didn't say those things and hasn't seen production version pictures. Looks like it was just wishfull thinking / rumor mill.

CTS will be there though

) and I clicked the link to the podcast but it was a no go. Haven't had time while I'm at home either 
.At this point, I wouldn't take something "said" as official or non-official, know what I mean?
I'm sure they'd rather not have a repeat of last year's ~November (think that's when it was? ) "leak" ..... I'm sure lips are going to be buttoned as tight as possible, although it's hard 'cause even one wrong "whisper" and then "WORD" gets out on the street!? 
I wouldn't rule out the black Suburban theory, but I'm not holding my breath either. I think if we started holding our breath way back, we'd almost be dead by now!!
