Crazy deals on some GM cars right now, i.e Stingray and Camaro, etc.

whats the exact problem with it?
Btw, a vette should be purchased in manual trim unless the circumstances are exigent (i.e. lost a leg in iraq, migrating arthritis, polymyalgia rheumatica, elevated ESR, etc),
if you look back at vette resale values, all manual variants are fetching 4-5k above equivalent automatic used models.

Small percentage of automatics are experiencing this issue, but as normal, the owners are vocal. I would be too if my automatic was acting up.
i keep buying GM cars because they aren't perfect (what brand is?) , but are largely reliable, fun, and a great value. I also have a great dealership and service department. They always put me in a new Silveradonor Tahoe loaner too when car is in for service.

Agree with @QUIKAG. It used to be that I would not allow my wife in anything other than a Honda product. Then I bought first one CTS-V, then another, and my mind opened up. Last year the wife's Pilot needed replaced and she wanted a Buick Enclave.....and I didn't flinch. I didn't pay MSRP, obviously, but it's a reasonably reliable ride with some known issues that can be avoided.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still a Honda fanboy with a NSX and RLX in the driveway....but I'm no longer afraid to go domestic, or at least GM. PS their snafu with the Stingray's AT is a rare drivetrain screwup. Typically GM's drivetrains are solid and reliable. I've always joked that GM needed to look to Honda for interior build quality, and Honda needed to look to GM for drivetrain reliability.

I read some article, (was it Jalopnik?) a couple weeks ago about huge discounts on Camaro's. And another one about the average incentive on full size pickups being $8k right now across all brands.
First sign the economy is headed south again. Pent up demand is gone and huge incentives needed to move built up inventory. Factory slowdowns will follow among other things. But aside from the 2.9% growth rate published by the feds for third quarter growth, (which will be revised downward after the election) I think things are slowing down and not speeding up.
I'd buy a car right now, and in fact I have, but if I felt my job was on the margin, no way I'd pull the trigger right now.
