REALLY? I find that hilarious, considering I left my job @ GM Design 2 months ago

Think about this...
1) MCE (Mid-Cycle Enhancements) aka "Facelifts" come a few years before brand new models.
2) GM still needs to market the new "C7" Corvette when they decide to release it. So far that is speculated to be around 2013-2014. They will not come out with both the next-gen Corvette and next-gen Camaro at the same time, as to give the Corvette the proper limelight.
3) ***** CLASSIFIED *****
4) ***** CLASSIFIED *****

As much as I'd love to share other details with you, I am contractually obligated not to do so. But just know that these vehicles take YEARS of development. And YEARS of sales to re-coup the hundreds of millions of investment dollars. Frankly, throwing away a Zeta-based Camaro after only 5 years just makes no business sense.

Hows that logic for ya? I'll PM you the address for that Klondike Bar LOL

Either way, I'm in no rush for a 6th-gen Camaro. The 5th-gen is still whoopin ass in the market place, and I'm still LOVING mine!
