Reality check: plenty of dealerships tried (and still try) to mark the 370Z up. Its the exact same for the Camaro - look around, and you will find plenty of OTHER dealerships who arent marking up. My dealer called me back in October saying they would be selling them at MSRP no questions asked.

I think there junk basically all gm cars are anymore, them and a lot of fords as well. We had so many problems back in 1996 with all 3 fords that we bought one right after we bought it. We went to the honda dealer bought a brand new civic and that thing ran like you would never believe, never any problems at all. That is why I stick to imports.

New Fords are NICE. They have improved greatly. GM still in the crapper.

Sounds scientific, and you've done all your research.

I'm sold, imports 4 life.

Sounds like GM has stumbled upon a cost effective way of painting Camaro's - paint each exterior body part seperately before assembly using different vats of paint. Am I missing something here?

6'4 and 200lbs you dont fit in a camaro but

No, the cheap plastic takes up a lot of space.
