Anybody planning to head down to the Edmonton Motor show this weekend? Sounds like they are supposed to have lots of retro cars, as well as all the new line ups and lots of concepts, I'm planning to go, don't know 100% if I will yet or not but am definitely hoping to go check out the 09 Ram and the 08 Challenger.

okay guys you heard it here first!!!!

I have confirmed with my General Motors Rep, (the guy who sells me my inventory) all the stuff that I was finding out from other sorces, and this guys brother is a engineer with GM and is actually involved in the tooling of the plant out east.

The car is going to start production sometime in september THIS YEAR, which means 2008 availibility as a 2009 model year vehicle. the reason i was dissapointed about the one at the car show is i wanted to see the motor and how the intereior looked without seeing it on my computer screen or a glossy mag page. to get back on track they have yet to have a rolling engine in car! when the used to build the last generation firebird/commy they were expensive, good news pricing very similar to the mustang as the old one was closer to the vette. the hold up off production was when the last ones where built gm struck a deal with the canadian gov't that those/these cars would only be built in canada, they stopped making them, they weren;t selling cause too much $$$$$$, and GM in there wisdom thought the land the plant was on would be worth more without the building so they started tearing it down, now had to find new place to build the car, and tool it, well that's almost done.

but, big but,...... UAW (the uniuon the the people who build the car belong to) all I can say is that if they decide to strike, which what a good time to strick with all the buzz around this car right when production is about to start, could seriouslt affect the launch of this vehicle. I already have HUGE $$$ deposits to hold my first order, as the dealer I am at back in the day was a performance dealer we expection a good chunk of allotment.

well, i guess you heard it here first, a good GM rant on snow and mud!!

 

[Summitric]

THANKS JEREMY, ITS GREAT TO HAVE THAT INSIDE INFO... YOU CAN RANT ANYTIME, AND GIVE US SOME INSIDE INFO WHENEVER YOU WANT.... WHAT'S ON SNOWANDMUD, STAYS ON SNOWANDMUD..... LOL ---- NOW IF WE CAN GET THE DODGE GUYS TO TELL US WHEN THE NEW 'CUDA IS GONNA COME OUT????

I am a die hard Chevy/GM guy, I was disappointed with the Camaro even if it was a concept car what are they waiting for?. I thought Chrysler did a good job with the Challenger but should had the Orange colored model for the show. Joeys Place had a nice display of cars and trucks downstairs, wish I hadn't sold some of the cars and trucks I had when i was younger.

 

[SLEDBUNNYRACING]

Ain't that the truth

wish I hadn't sold some of the cars and trucks I had when i was younger.
