Unhappy Cyber Gray Metallic Delayed

This just in, the 2010 Camaro in Cyber Gray Metallic (the color I ordered mine in, and the second most popular color according to our poll conducted for Chevrolet, has been delayed slightly.

The issue is the final builds of the Impala of the Dark Tarnished Silver color (which is to be replaced by Cyber Gray Metallic). Impala has to complete the build of their remaining Dark Tarnished Silver orders and the Impala Oshawa plant has to be shut down before they can switch over to Cyber Gray Metallic. From what I am told, the Impala build schedule for Cyber Gray Metallic starts in late April which is assumed that is when the 2010 Camaros in Cyber Gray will also start.

Am I bummed? A little bit. Not a ton. I would rather wait and get the color that I want and to me, it will be worth the wait. I am sure some people will sigh and say something to the effect of "another delay". Can't blame them but AFAIK, it is only one color.

Ok, that Dark Tarnished Silver is a pretty nice color and wouldn't mind if my SS/RS took a bath in that... (nothing like starting a fresh rumour :-)

Thanks for the confirmation guys.

that sucks, they tease us with it on the Pace Car and then this...

what am I whining about? I'm not getting one unless something happens to one of my other vehicles around then... And I've pretty much decided that I'm not buying a new car unless it uses direct injection. And I would not buy a Camaro without a V8 (unless maybe it had a forced induction V6.)

you wouldnt buy a new car unless it was D.I.( v6 camaro) and you wouldnt buy anything unless it was a v8( ss camaro) or a v6( v6 camaro)??????i think your a little confused, because i sure as hell am.

Something along the same lines....Malibu ( I think ) is going to the same color a little later and they want / have to convert them at the same time. But that's been planned for some time.

he said he wants direct injection. thats why theres the v6 model. then he said he wants a v8. that would be the ss model. then he said he wants a forced induction v6. throw a blower on a d.i. v6 camaro and call it a day. or buy the ss. who makes a d.i. v8 sports car in the same range as the camaro?

He wasn't necessarily talking about the Camaro...just new cars in general and I believe he meant from the factory. Sure he could throw a blower on the V6, but then he would have to spend thousands more and void his warranty. The Gen V V8 engines are supposed to have Direct Injection, but I believe they are currently on hold due to lack of funding

GAH, another delay. I wonder...... maybe GM knew that the earliest (theorically) would be March because they don't seem to mind adding delays here and there.
