Both subscribe to the forecasts that my company provides (I used to handle the subscription when I was at GM) so just going through the forecast tells them pretty much what they need to know about the others expected launch timing and some of the powertrain / technology content.

Again, yes and no. I handle the powertrain side of the forecast. Others handle the vehicle side of the forecast. Since I have history with GM, I sometimes get involved in conversations with the vehicle forecasters about what may or may not be happening in the GM vehicle portfolio. The forecast as it stands today shows Alpha 2, but we’re talking a lot about maybe changing that to VSS-R. No clear decision at this point.

I'm guessing they will skip Alpha2, Alpha is already a world class chassis and VSSR will give more options as far as hybrid/electric.

My sources tell me that GM is waiting to see if the Mach E Mustang is selling before they release the C7 E-Maro.

My 16 2SS is my keeper, especially with the new 2020 Silverado in the driveway.

I once had a car I was selling, I never did sell it until I got smart and advertised it.

My source works at Milford - says they have not seen or heard anything new on Camaro in over a year. They would be seeing it 24 months prior to any production.
Says its on the drawing boards, but in order for it to come around, the OTHER Alpha platform vehicles will have to run their sales cycle. The CT4 and CT5 were both retooled for 2020 (kind of like a Alpha 1.5), so GM is not going to retool it for 4-5 years. Those models will pace the Alpha platform as they WAY outsell the Camaro (the only three vehicles currently on the Alpha are the CT4, CT5 and Camaro) His mindset is that if the 6th gen stays in production, it will make it to the 7th. If GM pulls the plug short notice on the 6th Gen and keeps making the Cadillacs - that will be the death roll
