No "official" Camaro program but..

...as formula79 pointed out in another thread is it possible that it's just hidden within a different development plan?
You know, X-Files kind of stuff?

Oh please!
Everyone knows they are both in hiding and couldn't possibly reveal themselves to anyone. Even trusted GM officials.

I'd like to remind hoffa, JFK, elvis, the lindberg baby, the keebler elves, and whoever else GM has working on the "unofficial" 5th Gen Camaro project that without an "official" project, I will be unable to develop an "official" financial planning strategy to purchase one.

Reuss isn't lying when he says there is no Camaro program....however that doesn't mean there isn't a Camaro type car under development with a different internal code name. Remember in 66 the Camaro wasn't called Camaro untillright before it was released.

Secrecy

Plausable deniability, you can't tell what you don't know! Its always been this way why would they change now, just because we now have a forum where we can all bitch I think not

You build the SS in that development program, you have the engine, transmission, and suspension work done on the 5th gen. The Camaro program I think hides among other programs. It's there somewhere VERY hidden. We won't really know where it came from until 2008 or so when its released.

Its probably being worked on. I mean come on, the Charger is being talked about for around 05. I'd say the Camaro will be here around 06, at least before 08, with the year before being the 40th Anniversary.

The GTO will be here for its 40th. If they take too long there will probably be no reason anymore then.

Let it go already, if and I mean IF the Camaro ever happens again it will be another what 10 years.

All I am hoping for is something with a v8, looks good and doesn't have the name plate or the pricetag of a Corvette.

If the Keebler Elves are working on the F5 project, does that mean everyone will get a free package of Keebler cookies with the purchase of an F5?

I would trade the cookies the the Keebler Elf's sister: STACY KEEBLER!!!
