I have rarely questioned my choice in careers (high school English teacher) but would gladly trade with you just for the nice little perk you have there! Enjoy the car and post more pictures of it as you hit the road with it. One suggestion would be to get a better camera though, either that or I have to get lasik surgery.

Scott:

Awesome, just pure awesome. Out of curiosity, do you have any more interior pictures (and to that extent, are you allowed to post them)? This summer is likely the summer of Camaro for me. I made a promise to myself that I intend to keep, and I'm eager to see more actual, even if preproduction/CTF, 2013 interior photos!

it's a blackberry - the problem with the lens is that we must put a 'GM Seal" over the lens when we enter Design Studio or any area that has 'proprietary' information or products - and it leaves a residue that I haven't been able to clean off.............that's why things are 'fuzzy'........

while "Bro Zeke" was (as my nephew put it: "The ultimate in bada##ery" --) Mr. Bond has a very upscale appearance. Interestingly - I was parked at a Starbucks yesterday evening (I'm addicted to their Black iced tea) - and a BMW Convert -- all in black - pulled in. The driver and several others started to check Mr. Bond out - and they all commented on how stunning the appearance of the Camaro is - and the polished wheels on the ZL1 add another dimension to the Camaro. (they do....)

So - i think "Mr. Bond" is a good name........... (....altho I'm still loving 'nighthawk'....)

Beautiful car, but the My Link and the touch screen do not do it for me. Traditional display systems (radio, Nav, DVD) become outdated so fast they should never be standard equipment. I think I read the 7" touch screen will be standard in 2013, is that correct?

Mr Bond seems right. His performance is fictional.

What? you thought nobody was going to bust your chops.

I'm glad to hear it wasn't my eyes!!! After a week of grading essays everything is a little foggy right now! Thanks for the post...I'm still scheming on how I can trade my 2010 for the 2013 convertible...without getting raped on the trade or ending up divorced over another new Camaro.

I use Acrysol Body Solvent to remove glues and adhesives. I got a can at a Buick dealership many years ago. Don't use stuff like that on a plastic lens, only glass. You can also use Goo Gone. And maybe nail polish remover. Good luck.
