Party at the plant?

Is there any big gathering around the Camaro plant the day the first one roll out from the factory? Like a countdown with a big celibration party, rockbands, hot-dog stands, bbq, baloons in the air and GM performance selling t-shirts telling "hey, itīs the hey days". Big crowds of enthusiast from all ower the world. Maybe F-body father has anything on this? I would love to be there, do the tour in the factory and see it all come together.

Why did you call out Scott on two different occasions and then ignore both of his replies, and now fire another shot?

The car is being built at Oshawa. Settle down.

That will ultimately be up to GM Canada... but I suspect there could perhaps be a number of individuals within the U.S. parent company who might be somewhat "influential" with respect to this decision... definitely an occasion to celebrate!!

Oh... and zrater... I'm callin'
... plant conversion started Nov.30. A couple of my buddies work at the plant... 'nuff said.
Perhaps you could be a bit more specific about what is still "undecided"? Your comment is somewhat ambiguous.
And.. I'd really be interested in knowing which "local" shop said that to you. Feel free to PM me with that name if you'd be more comfortable doing that. I'd like to give them a call.

Best regardSS,

Elie

This is one time I wish I was Canadian

I hope they offer tours - I'd take a 4 day weekend, drive up in my Camaro, and just take it all in.

The term overkill comes to mind here.

[QUOTE=guionM;5155232]The term overkill comes to mind here.


Yeah, I admit I was little bit carried away her, but non the less, -this is a historical moment. Just imagine this a few years back when there where no Camaros (no Challengers, Charger and no cool Mustangs for that sake) on the horizon. From my point of view, living in Sweden (Europa) the big three finaly use their proud herritage and build cool cars again. Thatīs grate and I hope they will continue on that path, not try to build European or Japanese kind of cars, but their own -American style. I was total blown away by the Camaro concept, better than I could ever hope for. In fact, Iīm a bit jealus at you living on the North American continent to be a part of all this, hell, I wanna be there too! Baseball, appelpie and Camaros, -the world need this And recpect to GM making this possible, so far they have made a exellent job that truly deservs a party (in any form) that day when the first one rolls out.
