Chevrolet News:Just Launched Chevrolet SS Already Threatened with Extinction
Maybe I'll get lucky and the next Camaro will be drop-dead gorgeous enough that I can ignore the fact that it's the only offering from GM that might interest me. And maybe, Buick will sculpt a Riviera so slick that I'll be able to ignore the fact that it will be automatic-only. Or maybe the SS/PPV will survive on Alpha and offer a wagon I have to have. And how about a small alpha from Chevy below the Camaro that is a ball to drive into a corner. Show me something like that with an MSRP between 30 and 50K.

The way I see it is that they flubbed every decision they made on Zeta - that is when they actually made a decision instead of tripping over their own thinking. There never was a cohesive. logical, or firm plan for an exceptional platform they spent a billion dollars developing. Everything was over-thought and under-implemented. And always oh-so-late.

Chevrolet News:Chevrolet SS Marketing Manager Says Higher Performance Versions Are Possible
Like I've said before, GM has no idea how to market a car like this - or even who the target market is. If they did, it wouldn't be tied in with NASCAR, and a manual would have been an option.

Decision-making really isn't GM's strong suit.

The Final Bummer?
Bottom line is they should have done it over a decade ago. If they had a clue, they'd do it now when it doesn't require any development money and scoop up a few thousand more sales out of Zeta production. But they don't, and haven't, and even when they did, it ended up that they didn't. All BS all the time for many years in a row. So yeah, the final bummer.
