LIFO. Some car could get stuck in the corner for a year before finally finding its way out of the lot..... Would Chevy see this? Is zack46's car sitting in a back corner?
My guess is that there is no type of method. Just build, inspect, then ship as they come. FIFO would be best from a consumer standpoint. However, GM most likely does not deal with a high volume of custom ordered camaros. Granted there is a ton of people on this forum that ordered a vehicle, but that might only account for 3% of there total sales.
