Chevrolet Announces a Next Generation Camaro to be Bulit in USA

[35th_camaro_ss]

Hello I got this memo that was released from GM today...

Today, GM announced that production of the next-generation Camaro will move from Oshawa Assembly to Lansing, Mich. This will inevitably raise some questions and speculation about what the announcement means for the future of Camaro.

For now, we can tell you that it does mean Chevrolet is committed to the Camaro, and we are already planning for the arrival of the sixth-generation car. It does not mean we are ready to announce the timing of the next-generation, or to confirm any details about a future Camaro.

Introduced as a 2010 model year, the fifth-generation Camaro still continues to be a success thanks to fans like you -- and we are not done yet. This year alone, we launched the Camaro ZL1 coupe and convertible, the Camaro 1LE, and introduced the Camaro Hot Wheels edition. We still have more news to come, and expect the fifth-generation Camaro, built by the team in Oshawa, will continue to bring new people to the Camaro community.

Thanks for your support, and we look forward to sharing more Camaro news with you in the future.

Guess what else is built in Lansing....Cadillac ATS is assembled at the Grand River Assembly Plant.

It'll be interesting to see if it's on a modified Alpha platform.

Just watched the video you posted, I was talking to a Chevelle buddy of mine a few months ago and he said there was talk about a remake of the chevelle. Maybe made in Canada? Have you herd anything about this? I think that they should bring back the muscle cars of early years with modern technology. Don't get me wrong, I am a Die Hard Chevy fan, even when they built crap (every other car maker was too). But you have to admit that the stang and challenger look pretty tough. Have you seen the new dart? Its a neon, OMG that's wrong!
