But even at catch up they suck... When this first happened in mid 1964... Chevy got a Mustang beater on the road in 29 months... How long has taken Rick and Co. to recognize their mistake on the Camaro and get a car on the road?
Almost 5 freaking years!...
How long did has it taken Chrysler to get a challenger back in the showrooms?
Just over 2 years...
They started AFTER GM committed to the new Camaro and they FINISHED first...
Rick, if your corporate strategy is to just play catchup all of the time...
Could you at least be good at it!
BTW Rick IS NOT CHEAP... he has collected over $100Million... Yes MILLION... during his tenure at GM...

I suggest you look up reasons as to which why the car is being released in a few months.
Hint: Look up Oshawa car retooling, look up Ste Therese F-Body contract termination terms. The Camaro has been planned long before Ste Therese was closed, they couldn't keep it under wraps so long. Released early maybe, but this was out for a long time and there wasn't any real way to speed it up.
