That's BS. I hope GM gets the parts and doesn't delay the Camaro because of those **** heads.

well this just highlights a flaw in their supply system, hopefully when they restructure they will also revamp their logistical system.
Oh well the new camaro is ugly anyway

Of course something like this would happen just right before production. GM has almost two weeks to take care of this before Jan 12. Though with courts and filing lawsuits, they can't make it in time, unless Candice decides to throw the parts over to GM
