IMHO, Cadillac is king at GM. Corvette is a very, very close second. That has been blatantly obvious long before Pontiac and Oldsmobile (with their great histories) were kicked to the curb like a red-headed stepchild.

With that said; The enthusiast, engineer, bean counter collaboration at GM that allowed the Alpha platform to be developed and then shared between CTS, ATS and Camaro, and then built in the same facility was sheer genius.

Holy Sh*t! the first time that you jack your Gen6 Camaro off of the ground exhibits the amazing rigidity of the frame. Then you drive it....WOW!

The development of the Alpha platform and further development of Alpha II, with stated plans to continue to share the love with Camaro gives me confidence that our beloved Camaro will live on. There has been no talk of ceasing production (other than shift reduction) Lansing Grand River.

FWIW; my thoughts and prayers to the families affected by GM's and Ford's cutbacks.

A final thought; IMHO, Z28 will be back. 1-2 years after the DOHC, monster HP, small displacement/block NA C8's are introduced. It will be light... and it will be fast.
