Yes, we all got turns to drive the convertible.

Can't compare it to a 4th gen really, different animals. It's closer to the new GTOs with the upright seating position.

Janet framed it best... for a Corvette owner, this car will make for a really fun daily driver.

Everyone there except for Janet are Fcar owners. Janet has a C6 Z06.

The 67 pace car was actually restored by one of the participants. GM purchased it from him for their Heritage Collection.

But how did they know to write essays, and did they know they might be picked for a 5th gen Camaro focus group?

Default There were

posts on Camaro Web sites asking folks if they were interested. I've met a few of the people and they are really, really interested in the 5th Gen. ChrisL and JasonD are very knowledgeable about Camaro's and they keep us well informed on CamaroZ28.com. Also the SSOA site at Chirpthird and 5th gen .org also have good info.

As a member of the SSOA. I'll hit them first, Camaro Z28 2nd and then the 5th Gen site. I've found that those 3 will usually have and new and breaking information.
