Did you know the Camaro came out in 1969?

More media that needs a little more knowledge, or at least some fact-checking:

Some choice lines:

The Chevrolet Camaro, ... first introduced in 1969

Chrysler's Crossfire... runaway hit

Also lumping the new "44%" bigger RAV4 to "smaller cars".

Ugh.

This is so bad. It is the right angle ont he auto show. concepts are much closer to reality than ever before. yet he misses all the best examples. The Challenger, Camaro and Volvo C30 are going to be in dealerships in the next 2 years.

The Kia Soul and Mitsu concept will probably never be built.

And I think the Mazda kabura will come out before the Reflex.

Even the Urge as crazy as it is has mroe interest from Nissan to be built than the Kia or Mitsu.

Also there are more interestig tidbits like the Ford Superchief design...it might see production. even if the vehicle itself wit the wild engine may not.

mass media sucks.

The Kabura is showing the 2008 RX-7 I believe.

They have no clue...

The yonly missed it by three years. What the big deal?

As much of a biased retard as I am I'd make a better automotive journalist than some of these fools. It takes about 0.03 seconds to find out the original Camaro intro date online. I honestly think some journalists are still not up to speed wiht the differance between CY/MY.

The Chevrolet Camaro, ... first introduced in 1969

*chuckles*

Sometimes, I don't understand how this type of error can happen.

BTW, folks, it was the Monte Carlo that debuted in September 1969 as a 1970 model.

Not that I'd know...lol.
