MATTE??

I have Armoralled it a few times in the past, none recent, now I just roll a lint brush and use rubbing alcohol to get the remaining particles and this happens maybe twice a month? I'm pretty sure that the alcohol would have disolved the Armoral by now though and I still get a pretty heavy dosage of sun glare...

Matte= Not Shiney and wet looking.

Armoral has Matte Finish products.

I honestly have no idea why that would be happening if you don't Armoral it.

Do you mean you get a slight reflection of the dash itself on the windshield sometimes? (If so that's not a glare since glare would mean a blinding reflection of light.) I know I had that happen on occasion. But nothing so bad as to complain about it.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned these yet:

1. Definately Heads Up display as in the 'vettes and the 04 grand prix's(at least my friend's did)

2. *Option to have 3 or 5 pt. harness instead of seat belt

I requested HUD in post #39. I didn't check, but I'm pretty sure I wasn't the first.

Pretty safe to assume that features we had on the 4th gens will be there on the 5th gen.

Except for T-tops (I know, not interior).

I was going through and pricing options and building a Corbvette on the Chevy website. What I want for the new Camaro is the ability to build it how I want it and not necessarily have to get an entire package of options just to get the one option I want. I absolutely hate this about GMs current system.

For example, if I were to buy a Corvette I would really just want the 1LT package, but I also want a HUD, but the HUD is only available with the 3LT package that is $5000 more. GM needs to have more of an a-la-carte option offering.

Having a car built option by option is very expensive. Try building a Toyota Corolla and you'll see that. $109 for a freakin' cargo net. $99 for a cheap-*** $5 pinstripe down the side.

I think that is a little different becasue, at least for the cargo net, it is a "dealer installed option" and they really rape ypu on that stuff as a way to make back some of themoney they lose negotiating the price of the car.

Little story - When I bought my wife's Civic recently we went to a dealer that had the lowest price bar-none of any dealer... it turned out to be about $500 UNDER invoice. Well, when we began arranging the details of purchasing it the price all of the sudden was $1,500 more than what he quoted me. When asked why he replied that they install certain accessories right as the car gets off the truck... I asked if he could sell me a Civic right off the truck without the accessories, and he said no. So i went to another dealership.

As for the Camaro, I am not saying they should have ALL options offered a-la-carte. I understand the logistics behind that would be difficult, but some of the more expensive options should come on their own such as the navigation system and HUD. I don't see why that would be so difficult.

I can agree with that then. The idea of all options being separate is insane, but certain ones being separate isn't.

I'd like paddle-shifters to be an individual option. And... there is no way in hell I'm getting stuck with heated seats in some package deal.

Exactly. For $5000 more than the 1LT package witht he Vette you get:

- Audio system: Bose premium seven-speaker system w/ 6-disc Changer
- Head-Up Display
- Memory Package: includes two-position presets for drivers such as six-way power driver seat, telescoping steering wheel and outside mirror positions
- Auto-dimming rearview mirror
- Mirrors, outside: power, heated, include driver-side auto-dimming feature, body-color
- Heated Seats
- Steering column: power telescoping, includes manual Tilt-Wheel
- Steering wheel: includes mounted audio controls
- Universal Home Remote transmitter

IMO charge $500-1000 for the HUD and I am happy.
