General Motors says it is delaying production of the Chevrolet Camaro by one month, but it won’t offer any explanation for the delay. The start of production had been slated for February 16 at the company’s Oshawa, Ontario, facility, but a Chevrolet spokesman said today that the date has been pushed back to March 16.
“It’s due to a variety of factors that I’m not going to get into, but it’s nothing to be concerned about,” Rhadigan said in an interview, according to Automotive News. “We’re still going to build every one we can, and we’re excited to get them out.”

As we’ve previously reported, GM has already received more than 10,000 orders for the Camaro.

“It’ll take a few months for us to build all 10,000 of those sold orders,” Rhadigan said in the interview.

Last month, GM announced it was suing a bankrupt supplier in order to gain access to the parts and equipment needed to produce the Camaro on time. Rhadigan didn’t say whether the delay was related to the supplier difficulty.
