Happy holidays...

I guess it's a limited run of 10K to coincide with an anniversary of a marque, sporting American-designed body on a "world" chassis built offshore on a assembly line that is up and running before a NA plant is ready for such a task??? Then, very shortly after, NA plants take up the duties of creating this vehicle???

I think you (and others) are reading too much into this. Try not to take what he said literally.

(sounds like 'ol Santa may need the help of Pratt and Whitney .....) (and perhaps Boeing..........)
Maybe he can use a whole bunch of C17s to help deliver them. I know I'd want to be a crew chief on a mission like that.

Thanks for the Christmas wishes. Here's to you and all you love. Have a very Merry Christmas. That goes for everyone here.

Thanks for keeping those who serve in your thoughts.

Re: Holiday thoughts........

Red keeps it real again and again. Thanks for posting again Scott, I'm counting down the days until i get one of those 10,000 (or however many) christmas presents. Until then its back into the garage to wrench on one if it's technologically updated ancestors.

Thumbs up Re: Holiday thoughts........

This is seriously some of the best news I've heard in a long time. I'm truly excited about the possibilities as I'm an absolute diehard 4th gen Camaro fanatic (already on my 4th in four years). So I truly hope this happens in 2-3 years time...

Besides a unique style (NOT retro, I really like the process of evolution from one gen to another) that will set it apart from every other car on the road and hopefully an LS2 motor under the hood, the one thing I really hope for is a "true dual" exhaust set-up from the factory on these cars. It's time for the Camaro to go back into it's heritage with that, but I'd like to leave the 1st gen theme (appearance-wise) in its place like it should stay...

Good to see you post again Scott and happy holidays to everyone,

Mike

Re: Holiday thoughts........

Merry Christmas everyone!

I bet Red is just happy after seeing those "Charger" pics, It was just a little gift for GM's Camaro people.

Indeed. We tend to get caught up in relatively unimportant things here. I would like to see every soldier come home safely to his or her family, and I am grateful for the commitment of the members of our military.
