I have asked ALL the moderators for an explanation and am waiting to hear back. I am assuming it was an error on someone's part but let's wait to hear back from them.

I asked them as well. Haven't heard back either. I would think that these cars in the Gen Auto Shippers yard would be more than "Captured Fleet" GM would want any information for revisions long before now. They don't need thousands out there for testing. A new Camaro was seen in Lindsay lately, and that is about 50 miles from Oshawa. It is probably what we call a company car but who knows. Bosses and others get to take this stuff out for drives. I'm not sure about how these arrangements are made, but preproduction vehicles do get out on the road.

Just got back from Dinner and got on the computer, went to get on the Camaro5 Website and I got a reply that "I am BANNED" and it went on to say "And you know Why" and when the BAN would be lifted "NEVER"

Sounds like PMS to me Mark.........

I received the same banned for life B.S. message from Pro-Touring.com after letting a few idiots have it one day a year or so ago. PMS is quite the norm for many over there as well. Just clicked in the other day and was able to get back in for some odd reason.

What they are doing is creating 2 V6 cars for each dealer. These will not be considered dealer stock but "loaners" to the dealerships from GM. GM wants at least one car at each dealership so customers can test drive them. If GM had made these cars dealer stock, most dealers would have sold them quickly to make a buck. This way, they can't sell them because they are not theirs to sell.

Mark recently advised me that his ability to post at Camaro 5 was restored - without any reason or notice.

SYC got this issue public - so it is a good outcome.

We do influence the hobby and many are watching.
