that coming from you makes me feel warm and fuzzy. Seems so far away though.

Would be nice if it corresponded with the transformers movie...

FALL 2006. That would be crazy, anticipation is at a very high point right now. With the new Mustang as is and no refresh for 2 years, if the body still resembles the concept at least 90 % and drivetrain, fuel economy are there. The new Camaro would sell extremely good right now 2006. It would shock the hell out of FORD and devastate dodge's musclecar like attempt with the current charger RT/ Srt. GM please release it soon!! I can't wait until 2008.

Re: clarification on production year! damn motortrend

They are just taking a shot into the dark, like alot of magazine are. The reason is because now, enthusiasts are starting to know more about future products than they are...and they are the "experts." In addition to that, we are now all starting to become more educated on what is going one, and that allows us all to see how dumb some of these writers are. They make bogus statements and continually claim to have multiple sources telling them stuff (sometime going far enough to put bad info on their front cover). Because of this enthusiasts, are more likely to spread the inside word to their friends and associates (even if they only know each other through computers).
Within the last year we have all developed on anti-magazine sentiment. Their info old because of publishing time and as of late...has become less reliable. These magazine are painting them selves caustic-yellow, as in caustic yellow journalism. Rival sensationalist magazines shouting "Camaro won't be for sell until 2010/2009/2008/2007/2006"...Just so long as their info is more outrageous than the competition's...I'd be way more likely to share the excitement with a fellow enthusiast, than with an editor, and I know I'm not the only one that feels this way.

You know what we've all learned?...subliminally...without being told?..
Ignore the review...just ask the man who has one.
