no, but it will not have an global release like the mustang, so the 6 gen will have to wait a couple of years to go international and I will do it gradually like the 5 gen did... this WILL hurt camaro sales
Thanks for the schooling.

It surprise me nobody ever knew about Ben Collings reviewing about the 2011 camaro and the HPE650, my father had the chance to get a lap in the HPE650, and Ben Collins told my father that car was a gratefully surprise for him and the ss being a briliant machine on it own way. so congrats to GM and Hennesey performance :P

Not if the plans I heard about were still in place.

it's been known for 6 months that the 15 is a mid year production only and not the full length.... my guess is after mid year

I'm assuming global sales. Just look at the rear bumper of a 5 gen. It's made for a European tag.

And the leaked headlight appears to be EU certified. All good signs for at least a European launch.

Garfin is a nice guy, and one of the 12, had the pleasure of meeting him in Indy years ago.

Anyone recall when and where the 5th gen was revealed?

Seems like a good bet somewhere between late March and June for end of orders.

I asked my dealer what the last ordering date for 2015 was....he did some checking with corp and told me a week later it was June 30th.

That's right... and in August of 08 they did a hands-on reveal of the car for the public in Indy and covered here on C5.
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showpo...6&postcount=10

I'm not saying they'll do the same with this gen, just putting it in perspective for those who think it should be shown like the rest of the lineup.

I hope BIG RED 3 is right... show it at Camarofest

BTW... Number 3, that's an unusual name....Number 3.... where did you get it?
