    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?

    The more I see of the Camaro, the less I like it. The Mustang 'vert is out now, I'd rather just have that.

    Converting was to much of a challenge , so they decided to dodge it.

    So, any wobble-o-matic Charger or (you never know) Camaro 'vert we see jiggling past, its cowl all a-quiver... was almost certainly "created" by a "master craftsman" with a sawzall and a mig welder, and a shitload of bondo.

    @theeastbaykid: The roads around here used to be blessed by the Austin Montego. This was a shoddily constructed machine at the best of times, with next to no structural rigidity. This didn't stop several goons from having a go at convertiblizing them>



    Note also that it is a 4 door, front wheel drive car, so any "strength" is borne solely by that little bit of floor. No word if any of the doors still open.

    And so the Mustang remains the chick car of choice. Thankfully.
