Ok this makes sense. To me I think every online community has really strange fanboys. Remember how a lot of people reacted here to the MY2014 refresh

The Pill's antics are well known here to many. I know a little of him from being on here for the past year.

That said, get the car for the car, not the community. And besides, sure the Pill is toxic, but i'm sure there are just as many good Ford folks as there are GM. Don't generalize because of that tool.

Anyway - I think the Camaro is worth waiting for so...that's what i'm doing.

Interest is definitely starting to fade mostly due to the lack of new info and the non-stop dead horse beating here. At this point we've got one big pile of glue...

Well said. The Mustang and Camaro are both on my list to check out when my lease runs out. That being said, I have a long history with Camaro and have not been impressed by the lack of technology offered by the 6th gen Mustang. Hence why I joined here and lurk around there.

I lost most of my interest due to lack of interest from GM to keep us at least a bit informed, I don't ask much.. at least a word about the camaro... because at this point EVERY we know about the camaro besides de chassis and its weight is pure speculation... if this keep the same for my birthday (on march) Ill get a 2015 mustang or a Charger, or even a WRX, life is short to waste your life waiting like an Akita in a train station...

What does it matter if they would show the car off now or in two months? It'll still come out at the same time and you won't drive it any sooner if they showed it off today.

I understand you can say "I could decide whether I like the way it looks now", but you could just wait a couple months and decide on your car then and there.

Everything i dont like about blind brand loyalty i can find in huge amount on that specific forum coming from that guy and his fan club.
He has an array of facts that he uses very selectively to make arguments. Its disappointing that most of the stuff those guys think they know about the LS/LT platforms or GM is what they read over there. For example, did you know the aftermarket support for Coyote/SBF is WAY WAY WAY bigger than the LS market? ...that must be why there are so many LS to Coyote conversion kits available for so many platforms. I've never seen a forum, even a GM forum, so obsessed with the Z28 and 1LE package.

Unlike a lot of people, I actually like what they did with the 2015 Mustang. I think the Alpha Camaro will force an engine refresh for it, which is what I would hold out for now. It's like they don't understand that competition is what drives both sides to improve, and all they want is validation for their purchase decision at the expense of bashing the "other" side.
