and i used to keep up with all of it all the time... what happened to me?????

I am very ashamed of myself Big Ed... between my 4 jobs to pay for the z06 and driving the z06... and spending HOURS cleaning those damn polished wheels... i can't keep up with the 5th Gen news...


Super happy of the news thought I might just get a V6 as a daily driver

Edmunds sometimes sounds like an eight year old, repeating random bits of information they heard but confusing them.

For instance, they recently gave a glowing review to the Chevrolet Impala SS, and complimented them for ridding the car of the "profound" torque steer they found in the Grand Prix GXP - most have not found torque steer in either. They then went on to describe the engineering features of the Impala SS that solved the problem, as if the Pontiac did not have each and every feature they were discussing.

Then they add silly comments to news bits. The writer thought, "muscle cars...1970's...gas," and spewed it on the webpage. Had he done research he would have found that the last gen Camaro's EPA numbers, from the Clintonian age of cheap gas, are still on par with those of the average family sedan. There's no basis to the environmental comment.

The core of the problem is that more tradtional magazines, and even less tradtional ones like edmunds are losing the monopoly on news to forums like this, and thus feel compelled to peddle their "expert" analysis.

I guess you couldn't help yourself either. Editorializing......

I'm not going to get into the whole thing but Clinton had exactly nothing to do with cheap gas other than the fact he happened to be Presindent at a time before demand so totally outstripped refinery capacity that prices spiked.

That's like calling the 80's 49ers a product of the Reagan era of west coast offense.

I guess I must have been living under a rock, because I am both surprised and delighted to see this. The Camaro has been gone too long.

Spit it out.

There's no need around here to put in the typical "we're not going to mention another board caveats" when talking about things like this.

Informationally speaking and considering the quality of thought and experience, this is the top board on the web for future vehicle information where GM is concerned.

When you're the best, there is no fear of competition.

See, I gotta read threads closer.

PacerX = knucklehead.

Actually in neither post did he mention Camaro. His C&G post quotes mine which mentions Camaro and Sigma lite. He was simply saying that the Willmington plant which I was discussing might have something other than what I assumed it could have. He has not responded about Kappa plus. For all I know he could just be using that as an example to show that we really don't know what is going there.

Yeah, this and that other little board, http://www.chirpthird.com
