I thought production didn't start until Marh 16? after if got pushed back and all. I'm curious if that was from the pre-production Camaros or if they are running "practice cars" on the assembly line?

I can't open the link at work, but I'm sure those are pics of the PRE-production Camaros that we've been seeing so many pictures of recently.

If you're referring to the week they're shutting down the plant to slow down production, that only effects the Impala line, and is happening in March.

i'd think the flagship vehicles at gm would be the top of the line vettes and CTS-V's

those are the two GM cars that get all the fancy new and expensive technology.

True.
But the new Camaro SS certainly qualifies as the 'performance/value flagship' at least, it's a lot of car for under $31k.

The Impala is commonly referred to Chevrolet's flagship sedan. I think thats what he meant.

Flagship meaning "most luxurious and dersirable" sedan wise, as well as being a big seller
