If all aspects of this car was made for it, great. If so given the world we are in, then why wouldn't they say so in the marketing materials so that all of the semi-fat and full on fat soy boys would feel even more hard over the car they are looking to buy? I want to believe that E85 is trouble free. Why don't they just make every car "flex fuel?"

There is much discussion of this already. I've stated this before on here, though: you can get flex fuel options for impalas, trucks and SUV's. The cost for the option on the trucks is $100. So do you think that for only a $100 charge, GM has to replace all of the gaskets and fuel lines, etc. to make the flex fuel truck safe to handle it? And if I heard my tuner correctly, the E85 capability for flex fuel was already in the computer for the Camaro. They all have the capability to run it. But I agree that if YOU don't feel safe running it, then don't run it. Because if anything does go bad on your car, you'll blame the E85 and be upset with all of us. Keep your car stock please.
