Click here for answers to Frequently Asked Questions about the 2010 Camaro.

1 Placement of an order with a dealer is not a guarantee of production or delivery. Orders can only be placed through a participating Chevy dealer. Contact your local Chevy dealer for more details. 2 With available automatic transmission. Estimate based on GM testing. EPA estimate not yet available. 3 Always use safety belts and the correct child restraint for your child's age and size. Even in vehicles equipped with the Passenger Sensing System, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat in the appropriate infant, child or booster seat. Never place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front seat of any vehicle equipped with an active air bag. See the Owner's Manual and child safety seat instructions for more safety information. 4 The Bluetooth word mark is a registered trademark owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such mark by Chevrolet is under license. Go to gm.com/bluetooth to find out which Bluetooth phones are compatible with the vehicle. 5 Call 1-888-4ONSTAR (1-888-466-7827) or visit onstar.com for details and system limitations.

They're scheduled to start production in spring 2009? So that means it'll be around the 3rd. quarter of 2009 before someone can drive off the lot in one. Hell, I bet Transformers 2 will be in theaters before the Camaro hits the dealerships. And all this time, I thought the Camaro was supposed to go on sale in March of 2009.

I don't see why March 2009 isn't posible. They aren't having to ship these cars 1/2 way around the world like the G8.

Why so much doom and gloom?
