I am merely one voice, representing all of the Design, Engineering, Manufacturing, Marketing, and all functions in-between, but we all share the same passion for the Camaro and it's history as all of you share. Every person on the Camaro team has worked many long days and nights (literally) over the last few years to make sure that the Camaro you are about to see (and purchase

) is the best one ever, and truly a world-class quality 21st Century Sports Car. Please know that there are some of the best and talented people located in Australia at our Holden Engineering Center, as well as here in North America, who have put their hearts and souls, blood and sweat into the car. We have been lucky enough to spend significant amounts of time with the car, to ensure we get it right for you. Now, as you become the ultimate judge and juror, it is our extreme hope that you find the car equally as impressive as we do. You are going to hear some even more exciting news about the car tomorrow morning from our Senior Leadership. This is just some icing on an awesome cake for you. So, in closing, I guess there is just one thing to say....................CAMARO IS BACK! ENJOY

Was the news you mentioned "MPG" ratings ??

Your team's hard work and dedication might make my step up to the new Camaro from my '02 Trans Am (which I have put a lot of hard work, dedication and $$$ into!). I am truly inspired by your efforts and am relieved to know that if I do decide to say goodbye to my faithful F-body that there is something available to fill its spot in my garage. Nicely done!

I stopped in to my dealer yesterday to check the status of my order. They had very little info on the delivery of my car. I am 15 on their list of orders and all they can tell me is that the preliminary order has been accepted by GM. The salesman informed me he had delivery dates for the first few cars and could call me to view them when they arrived. The thing that shocked me was, he said he had one coming in for sale to the general public in about 1.5 months. How is this even possible when there are so many preordered in the books?

If it were the "States" I would guess he's talking about the "dealer V6" but being Canada, I could only guess...
