Voices Should Be Heard

wellll...........everyone's entitled to their opinion.

You too!

But..........


A couple of things stand out:


>one magazine testing the Camaro and Mustang and Challenger said something along the lines of "The Mustang is invisible........"


I drove a Silver SS thru Manhattan on Good Friday -- it stops traffic -- people stop in a cross-walk to take pictures with their cell-phones. Children yell "Bumblebee!!!"

TAXI drivers were stopping to take pictures................


So -- I'm sorry you feel that way -- but I've been all over the country -- and judging by the crowds the Camaro pulls in every autoshow -- coupled with the comments I hear as I drive them -- I feel pretty good about the car -- and I also realize that we won't appeal to everyone.


You mentioned that you were at the New York autoshow -- what, pray tell, did you have in mind for a display?

In addition to "two cars on carpeting" (they were there so you and many others could get in and out of them.........

We had an RS on a turntable with a presenter --

We had a podium whereby you could 'build' your own Camaro -- and have the picture sent to your email address.......

We had Bumblebee on Display -- both in Camaro and 18 foot autobot form -- with the ability to get a free picture taken with both Camaro and autobot --

....oh yes - and then there was the OTHER Camaro next to the Transformers display -- so you could look at a production Camaro while waiting to get your picture taken.


What did you have in mind to improve the exhibit? (we ARE trying to save money, you know.........) "

gtahvit, I can't believe you shut down that thread when the thread creator clearly just stated his opinions in a professional way. fbodfather was reaching out to him for input/feedback and you shut the thread down. Why impede potential progress by "locking up" opportunities for GM to potentially showcase the Camaro in a more effective, fun way? Let everybody respond before you pull the trigger, please. If the guy likes crappy "Rice," so be it, but if he had input on the New York Auto Show's presentation of the Camaro, give him an opportunity to state an intelligent response. If it went further south, at least you gave him a chance. Let's try to keep the bias toned down a little here and be open-minded about constructive criticism as well as objectivity. That really annoyed me, I have to say.
