Camaro convertible coming in Q1 2011, but no Camaro sedan or Regal GNX

General Motors recently had a Q and A session over at FastLane blog, and there were some interesting tidbits.

Specifically, CEO Fritz Henderson was asked if GM would build a credible contender to the BMW 3 series, like what GM had previously in the G8. Henderson responded, "[We] do not see a [four door] Camaro in our future. We will continue to look for performance opportunities across our lineup, including in sedans."

The good news concerns the convertible version of the Camaro, of which one participant said "Been patiently waiting for Camaro Convertible. Best guesses are 2012 model in 1st quarter of 2011. With surging popularity of this model is there any chance of GM considering a push for earlier release?" To which Henderson replies, "Good guess and no."

And surprisingly one person asked about a possible GNX version of the new back from the dead Buick Regal, to which Henderson responded "Think you will like what you see in the future Regal alternatives, but do not look for GNX." Bummer.
