First off this was the first time I talked to him on the phone and not in PM's and emails.
Two words great guy!

Now the reason I was going to post this in the Transformers section since the reason I spoke to him is I am going with my wife ( a big fan too) to see Bumblebee at the Autoshow in Boston! Finally!

We talked for a few min. about what to expect at the show and the people there he has representing GM. For a guy that was up most of the day and night dealing with the press and the people that got in early he was still excited and told me about all the great stuff thats going to be there! Including Bumblebee

(He also told me about Bumblebee's "stunt double" the one that we heard about that got in an incident with a Decepticon and he gave me a figure on how much parts from Cybertron cost to fix him! really big time OUCH!! Thank god I dont have that repair bill)
Only bad part was he told me he was not going to be there But he assured me like I said the people there and the presenter of Bumblebee are fans and excited about the products they have there to show us. So with that I am charging up my Camera and looking forward to taking alot of pictures. Will post them when I get back. Just cross my fingers that I can get a good shot for my own memories!

And ohh..the reason why its not in the TF section..Not sure if this has been said anywhere but Scott let me know..and told me to tell you guys that hes going to be revealing some very very important info very soon. So just stay tuned. I was excited when he told me But not sure if I can say just yet

Cool!

Yup, Scott is a great guy, and the best thing about him is he's really just a Camaro enthusiast like the rest of us here, and will stop and talk cars with anyone at anytime.

:thumbsup:

I'll be hitting the Boston auto show this weekend too. I was hoping the convertible concept would be there, but BB is cool too. (I have already seen the silver one twice and BB once, just can't seem to catch the vert

)

Im hoping for at least engine options info. All the rest I can live without. The last time I checked Chevy Nation's site; the only thing remotely that grabbed my attention was the designer interview (then proceeded to be jealous of that guy because he got that job and not me).

I'm willing to guess that if he told you what this mystery info was

Then we can expect to see it very soon, like within a few days, You know? I don't think he would've spilled the beans about something that was going to be released January :lol:

So what's the announcement?

Ok so its been a few days and no BIG news. If he told you then it can't be a huge secret. Not unless you took him to a bar and fed him a bottle of jack before he started talking?!
If anyone knows this big news let's hear it!

I said soon...not days..I figure with his job soon sometimes means a little wait. Heck I emailed him to see if it was OK to say what he said to me and its been 3 days..and hes jumping across the country working so I can guess its hard to get to a computer.
But also I think hes gotta get the OK from GM and a few others before everything is set to make the announcement.

I'd expect any announcements to be made at the Detroit show, or a day or two before.

I've heard it will be VERY close.

I'd guess 95% like the concept.

The fuel filler will be in the side of the rear fender, not on top.

The windshield wipers will actually work.

The mirrors will be more like the ones on the 4th gen cars.

I've heard there are second thoughts about the console gauges. Personally, I don't like the idea of having the take my eyes off the road to check my oil pressure while my foot is in the gas.

Minor stuff like that.

I think we will all be happy.
