The horse it out of the barn, so to speak. Shutting the door now does nothing.

If you're involved with the media, you know what the dates are.

And they know. All Gawker websites know their positions within their industries. They just don't care. Like Apex said, they practically relish in it.

Then again, you look at who follows that site and it kinda explains a lot. You are what you eat.

Jalopnik's feelings on embargoes has been publicly stated before.

That's fine.

Still doesn't make it right. That's all I'm going to say on the matter.

Amazing!!

Imagine this in just about any other color....it will be even more amazing lol.

Super aggressive, and I love it.

I can't wait to see real shots, as GM renderings almost never do any of their vehicles justice compared to the real deal.

GM seriously sucks at rendering. It's pretty embarrassing.

Regardless of what Jalopnik (most anti GM site on the internet) says, it is a legally binding "non disclosure agreement". When I have a supplier come in and talk about future products, they have to sign a non-disclosure agreement. When I go to a supplier and they show me some advanced tech, we sign a non-disclosure agreement.

The date for an embargo is there as a courtesy to allow magazines and publishers time to prepare their material for publication (which needs time) so that they can release on the same date as GM (or any OEM for that matter) and satisfy their readers.

What these less than integrity laden folks do is let the first person to violate it and then jump on and go, "hey I didn't do it".

Jalopniks comments are ridiculous.

I'm pretty sure they don't get invited to press events for that reason.

But once it's out there, I would agree, that it's a fine line between holding to your agreement and then simply pointing your readers to the guys that did actually leak the information.

Not sure I like how the front fender in front of the wheel well was done.

Pure awesomeness.

Perfect

If GM doesn't like the leaks, stop giving the info out or sue the people who violated the NDA. It's as simple as that. I doubt GM would lose out if Jalopnik didn't have the information right away. I prefer GM's press releases because I'm getting the info directly from the source.

Very nice!!!

1. To be honest I'm disappointed the Z06 doesn't have a N.A. gen v version of the LS7. Track car = N.A. and less wieght imo.
2. It should have more horsepower for a S/C D.I. V8, plenty of torque though, but Ford's S/C 5.8 makes 660+, there next supercharged v8 will probably have over 700...
3. I bet this v8 is going to be shared in the CTS V, and the Gen 6 camaro ZL1 also.

Hmmm, automatic option.....finally a z06 that I can consider.

And if they sign it they should honor it. But if you read jaloponiks opinion on the matter, they never sign anything and tell manufacturers what they're gonna do up front.

In the same piece they said Chrysler sent them an email after they change their policy with embargoed information in it without ever talking to them before hand and assuming they would honor an embargo. Jaloponik then emailed them back telling them of their position (since it was a new policy when this happened) and asked them to take them off their disrtiution list but they continued to send them embargoed info.

At that point, it's on the manufacturer.

But I agree with you on everything else.

I still will wait to see what the new generation Camaro is like, but what an exciting time for GM enthusiasts.

Right on. Its only a matter of time....6 - 9 months maybe...before we start seeing 6th gen Camaro mules running around. That's my guess anyways.
