Default All These Secrets

Wow, GM is really keeping us 15 C7 buyers in the dark.

Carbon Fiber Package, have a price but no picture of what it looks like.

Transparent Film, no idea what it covers and is it really discontinued

What does the new Orange really look like

Biggest secret, WHEN WILL THESE CARS BE SHIPPED !!!!

Must be nice knowing the answers but now telling anyone.

Well that's what you get for buying a first month of a second model year of a seventh generation vehicle...what else did you expect

Just kidding man...I know its tough but try to relax a little and know that once you get it you will realize that the wait was worth it

There was a video with an explanation. It had the plant manager speaking about Nashville. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. But here it is. Seems like a good enough reason to me.
