I don't have a link to this. Below is from a message to dealers from GM:
All Camaro ZL1 models produced to date are currently being held by General Motors for a quality assessment. At this moment, the duration of the hold is undetermined, and may last a few more weeks. As soon as the hold is cleared, a note will be sent to all dealers to advise that 2012 Camaro ZL1 shipments are underway.
Because of the hold, the upcoming Dealer Order Submission Process (DOSP) cycle that was to be dedicated to ZL1 is being postponed. This DOSP cycle was scheduled to start this Thursday, March 1, 2012, and continues through Tuesday, March 6, 2012. A new date for this DOSP cycle will be provided in the near future.

The purpose of this note is to provide you with an update on 2012 Camaro ZL1 production and vehicle shipment plans.

We regret to have to undertake these actions, especially given the high anticipation for the new Camaro ZL1. We ask for your patience and will continue to keep you posted on any developments regarding production and vehicle shipments from Oshawa.
Sincerely,

Wonder how this will play out. If the car was paid for in cash then there is no debtor secured interest in the car and GM could not "make" them return the car.
The reason for the hold, is probable because after the test by the two top magazines and the results of performance not being that great. maybe gm decided to drop Ls9 in Camaro in the place of current engine.
Anyone hearing any more details? I heard very unofficially that it was a "software issue" but I call BS. You don't ship a car from Texas to the Canada plant for software.
I have my VIN # and date of production... Can we get an update? I put my money down more than a year ago (10 MAR 2011). I've been as patient as I can be...
Rumored to be a bad computer part related to the MagneRide.
