So I guess they’re still going ahead and make the Camaro with this platform. Very interesting stuff Jimmy. Thanks for the heads up and sharing it with us.

I don't follow a lot of GM stuff so it was interesting to see them mention Holden. Thanks to our Aussie friends I know what they're talking about.

I hear that the GM plant that is suppose to build the Camaro won't start retooling until November. And it will take at least 6 months to retool. These thing usually take longer than estimated. So looks like they'll be way behind the Challenger's release date!

They should've flipped the Canucks off, sent the cars to another plant, and named it the "Camero" or something lol. The contract only said they couldn't call it Camaro!

Hrmph. Who cares, the Challenger will be out soon and that's REALLY OLD NEWS BTW

Old news....they are going ahead with the platform. It was just crap with the CAFE standards and trying to make a statement.
