No wonder Redzed used to f**k with your head...you could never produce any cogent argument for anything.

Maybe I'm just not in a good mood this morning and I'm being alittle hard on you, but believe, I'm trying to restrain myself.



Ya, I read your entire reply... "Bash away..."

You have a very specific idea of what you want in a car... yet, it's OK on one, but not the other.

You will not be happy with whatever GM makes. Face it.

Still don't want to answer the questions, right? That's because you can't give a good reason.... you are all over the board on a lot of things... time to back up some of your random, aimless bitching.

The self-proclaimed greatest Camaro fan in the world hasn't actually purchased a new one in well over a decade (if at all!).

Re: Will you consider the Hyundai Pony car

It's perfectly obvious the new Camaro won't please everyone...hell as "great" as the '05 Mustang is, it doesn't please every Mustang enthusiast...the only thing GM can do is build a Camaro that the greatest number of people possible like, while accomodating the Camaro enthusiast as best as possible. You can't roll everything into a single car. Chevy has to, and will, worry about pleasing a lot of people, not just "Z284ever".

Sorry Charlie.

You can't please all the people, all the time...

What is it that you want to know? I have made it a point to state when the last new Camaro I purchased was. Special ordered in April 1989. Took delivery in June 1989. You're point being? What again? Do you have one?

Because I think the current GTO should have a third seatbelt in the rear seat, I won't be happy with any new Camaro....is that what you're saying? Maybe you can run that by me again.
You do realise Camaro is different that GTO, right? Or maybe you don't?

Challenger, I already explained in a previous post. But I'm sure you'll ask me again.

As far as aimless bitching goes, you are truly the bitchmaster....you could give me lessons.

Actually, my impressions are that many aspects of the car are coming along nicely.

I only have one main concern right now, and you know what it is.

Yup. the point is, the self-proclaimed biggest Camaro fan in the world hasn't bought one in over 15 YEARS. Your most documented complaint about the 4th Gen? "It's too big"... even though the 3rd Gen is near identical in size (waiting for the whole "a few inches is a ton of size" arguement :blah: )

Because I think the current GTO should have a third seatbelt in the rear seat, I won't be happy with any new Camaro....is that what you're saying? Maybe you can run that by me again.
You do realise Camaro is different that GTO, right? Or maybe you don't?
Yup, because unless you are truley expecting the Camaro to have a rear bench seat... the new Camaro should automatically be checked off your shopping list because it's not going to have one either.... (oh, I know... Camaro isn't GTO and GTO isn't Camaro... but if not having a rear bench seat is a real reason for you not buy a GTO, then it's a real reason not to buy any car.)


Challenger, I already explained in a previous post. But I'm sure you'll ask me again.
Summary of arguement:"I think the Challenger is allowed to be bigger, but Camaro is not... even though I'd actually be driving whatever car I buy, it's OK for one ponycar to be everything I don't want in a Camaro, and I'd buy it regardless , but if one thing I want in a Camaro is even off buy an inch (re: length and/or weight.) I won't buy it." Ya........... that's fair.

As far as aimless bitching goes, you are truly the bitchmaster....you could give me lessons.
OK, I'll send you my pamphlet and rates... though I don't know that I really "bitch" about a whole lot... The retro thing, but as I've said a few times... I've given in on it, and even though it's not the way I want the car to go, I can understand why it might do so right now...

If you also have a car with a bench seat that means you don't want a Camaro as another car?
Getting back to Hyundai, I would take a look at it.
