I'm soo sorry please continue to post silly emotion based message so that everyone can not only see that you don't like something but are willing to stoop down and start calling names because others don't agree.

It's just a car and some like love it and some won't and others will be on the fence posting over and over isn't worth the electricity usage because nobody is going to change their minds because someone else says they do or don't like it.

If you don't like the car don't buy it it's ok believe me.

But by all means please carry on with the cause...

 

I actually like his photoshopped radio and HVAC controls better than what GM is vomiting on us.


Stick a 09 CTS gauge cluster and steering wheel on there.

 

I was just at the Detroit Auto Show a couple days ago. I sat in a new production G8, and tried out the integrated e-brake. I'm... not all on fire about it. It's a little TOO well integrated in there, IMO. If a person wasn't very familiar with the car, say my wife for example - they might have a problem finding it in an emergency. I could get used to it I guess though... and overall the G8's interior was pretty nice. But so far I see no reason to dislike the new Camaro's e-brake.

 

Apology accepted. Now go after these guys if you will, since you're on a crusade.

 

Hmm, that's pretty strange IMO. Those would look wildly out of place on a Camaro. And while you are sure entitled to post away... 'vomiting' is a pretty strong word to use. If you hate it that much... maybe the car's not for you. You don't see me hating on the C6... even though I don't plan to ever buy a Vette.

 

We'll see. I still intend on checking it out though. Who knows if the 5th gen will last long enough for them to release a Z/28. What with CAFE, death of Zeta, turmoil with the CAW in Oshawa and all.

I've been really thinking about a Z06. It's really more money than I want to spend, but what the heck, for the cost of the two 5th gens I was considering buying....there you go. That, or an LSx 3rd gen conversion.....

 

well then we really disagree there. I HATED my 98s ebrake. This thing seems just as long and just as unergonomic. It could have at least been installed drivers side. Hopefully it wont be hooked to the ABS this time either.


The Z06 is really impressive and always turns my head. Just well executed all the way around. Looks power performance and even cargo space. That might be what you really want if youre willing to pay for the lighter car. I like the Camaro because it has looks I like and you can put two people in the back once in a while and still load up bags for a vacation or groceries.

 

That only comes in LT trim.

 

Ok. To each his own I guess. If I had an emergency though - where everything's going to He** and I only have a second or two left to grab a handle to save my life - I want a prominent lever sitting there that I can grab without even looking at it, for example in the dark or if a window has already been shattered and junk is flying around everywhere. YMMV

 

so if youre in an emergency situation, you dont want it right next to you on the drivers side?

 

Of Course! How about an LTZ Camaro

To include: burnished genuine Brazil Rain Forest walnut trim... Billet brass (simulated GOLD) plated instrument rings... Large heated and cooled console Perrier water bottle holder... dual seat vibrators and scent generators... and a large centrally located instant MPG gauge in the LTZ

 

I think it's coming together very nicely. Can't wait.

 

Umm - not really. People get pushed and moved around in emergency situations. I might be leaning real hard on that area and not be able to lift it quickly. I drive alone a LOT (to work). Chances are, I'd be able to reach over another whole five inches and pull the lever up on the other console side, without any conflicts or resistance.

 

So...that's it then? You've already written it off? Zeta, and the Camaro.
Nice.

 

You brought up an emergency situation. So if I were in one, I would much perfer a well placed ergonomic Ebrake rather than a long cumbersome lever pass side 5 inches farther as you put it. Yeah youd might be able to reach 5 inches farther but it would be more of a hassle in the scenario you put up to prove your point.
