    Why is it that some after market company, with an adorable name, can produce a product a whole year before the car manufacturer gets around to it?

    Its going to have just as many leaks as the factory model..

    I'd rather spend the money on a Trans Am version with t-tops, in black though.

    I'd be interested in a convertible, but only a hardtop.

    Come to think of it, at Camaro + 18k I think I'd rather have a Z4.

    Logic defies this. You are paying $18K to have the top removed and weight added at the same time.

    I can't really find anyway to justify spending the money on an aftermarket conversion like this. If this were the Challenger, which will have no convertible version, I can kind of see it. But why pay close to $55k for a custom convertible conversion when you can wait a year and get one straight from the factory with better thought-out engineering?

    @500wishes: I guess; at least until the real Camaro convertible comes out, at which point you just realize that you paid $55k for a sawzall job with inferior dynamics, huge amounts of cowl shake, and absolutely, positively no resale value.

    This may be an unusual post for me, but I will not be bashing GM for this decision. No, I applaud GM for this decision. I think it's great!
    Why is this a great decision? Because this is what the market wants: another high-powered convertible to compete with the Mustang. Lots of people will gladly fork over their hard-earned money for one of these. No government incentives are needed to sell it; and no goofy battery pack/weak engine drivetrain is included.
    GM will make money selling these because it is what the consumers want, not what the political hacks in Washington D.C want.

    Am I to understand that they have production mules up and running on public roads, but they're still a year and a half from market? And it's not even a new model, just a drop top? What's "new" about GM? Looks like the same old poor management and retarded product cycle to me.

    /George W. Bush Presidential Debate-style sigh


    ...can we just do away with this silly model year crap that makes no sense? For example: why exactly is a Volt a 2011 model if it will be released in 2010? Shouldn't it be the 2010 Volt? It's on sale in 2010, which is before 2011. If it doesn't go on sale until 2011, then it would make sense that it's a 2011 model, but if it's on sale in 2010, it really should be 2010.

    I assume you mean that this will be a 2011 model year car released in second quarter of next year, but wouldn't that be Q2 2010? or did I lose a year somewhere.

    Is that Q2 '11 prediction including the minimal three year hype they have to make or does that mean the real estimate is Q2 '14?
