I have no worries of buying one of these early build cars.

1) If there were issues and they fixed them properly...it makes them just as good as cars built a month later where that issue was corrected on the assembly line right? (now comparing a 2016, to say a Camaro built a year or two later...well usually those cars will be even better...at least according to most history tells us)
2) If these early build cars were gone over with a "fine tooth comb" as GM says they are, maybe its good to have a car that was looked at very closely rather than one that was built a month later that wasn't.

This is just all my own opinion, but it makes sense to me. That said, I wish I had waited a bit longer to order my car so I'd have it already.

I feel the exact same. It'll be more of a reief than it will be excitement.

I know you guys want to believe that when you special order a car it will be the first car to be built but it is probably the other way around. At least you will get exactly what you want.

Hang in there Tom, that is how I felt but the day I got in it I forgot all about it and all my excitement came back. Soon very soon
