"Build Your Own" Camaro Convertible Configurator up on Chevy Site - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I apologize is this is a duplicate post but I couldn't find any - you can build your own convertible on the Chevrolet site.

http://www.chevrolet.com/vehicles/20...tible/build.do

FirstandFifthGen · 12-15-2010, 08:42 PM

Does anybody else have trouble with the Chevy site? I always get "error on page" messages and can't get it to function properly.

Will the site let you put different colors on ragtop body's?

NewGen · 12-15-2010, 08:45 PM

i didnt get the error on page

pogiskier · 12-15-2010, 08:48 PM

cool it worhed for me

NewGen · 12-15-2010, 08:49 PM

damn they are pricey

camaro2lt · 12-15-2010, 09:01 PM

look at the atenna in the back

Bonanza7 · 12-15-2010, 09:14 PM

They are WAY overpriced. Thousands more than a new Mustang ragtop, similarly equiped. Sorry to say, they are going to lose a lot of sales over that alone. I was thinking of getting one. Not now. Might have to look at a Ford.

I'm pretty sure they've close to "sold out" with the pre orders for the first 20,000 units they are releasing for 2011

dcfan22 · 12-15-2010, 09:24 PM

I for one am glad they cost more than the mustang. Maybe people who drive the Vert Camaro will be in a class by themselves instead of being one of many driving the same car. Just my two cents - -

meb885 · 12-15-2010, 09:33 PM

anybody notice when you add ground FX on the convertible they are body colored, not the typical gray....

2010 SSRS · 12-15-2010, 09:34 PM

$44,750 for the one I built, glad I'm not a Vert fan.

Oopsie on the part of the Chevy website?

Looks pretty good though. I'm plenty happy with my 1LT coupe, but man would the convertible have looked sharp with ABM paint and white rally stripes. Considering all the "WTF?"'s that cancellation decision earned on sites like this, I'm certain they would've earned a few bucks making it an extra-cost color option - ABM looks every bit as good as IOM and RJT in my opinion. Oh well.

And yeah it's pricey, but price comes with quality. Still not a bad deal for what you get.

Bonanza7 · 12-15-2010, 10:01 PM

To a lot of people, a large price difference matters. I am sure the died in the wool Camaro guys will buy at any price. But soon, those guys have their cars, and GM then needs to compete for the rest of the audience. To them, a Camaro, good looking, but no longer unique, will have a hard time competing against a much cheaper, and high quality, Mustang.

BWProductions · 12-15-2010, 10:34 PM

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT TOO!! THE SITE KEEPS GIVING AN ERROR!

Plus that antenna has to go!!

FirstandFifthGen · 12-15-2010, 10:41 PM

I had to download to Microsoft Internet Explorer 8...all worked fine then.

BWProductions · 12-15-2010, 10:41 PM

I'm on an iMac, Nevermind I used Firefox and it worked!!

This is what I am hoping to purchase!

LittleRockCGM · 12-16-2010, 07:22 AM

Over 5000.00 difference between 2SS/RS Coupe vs. 2SS/RS Convertible loaded identical.

I built my car but in a convertible. It was $4500 more. The camaros are starting to get expensive.. I'd have to agree..

My car was about my limit.. I know new cars are expensive, but I wish they were cheaper.. I wish my 2ss/rs was about $30K new, and a convert about $32K..

Jimbabwe · 12-17-2010, 10:11 AM

Have to say that a CGM with a black top and stripes would look sweet!

outlaw2 · 12-17-2010, 10:58 AM

WHAT!...No White top to go with the white and orange striped paint and orange interior...waited this long for Black and Beige...Glad I bought the coupe. Black feels like HELL in the Nevada summer sun and Beige don't belong on anything but Sand...just a tad bit dissapointed in choices and price$$$ I can see these dealers in Northern Nevada ASKING $49,000+, they were asking 45,000 for a 2SS so I supported someone elses local economy and saved 6 grand

SuperH · 12-17-2010, 11:44 AM

Wow. I'm glad I talked myself out of it!

As I would have ordered: $50,445. And, it's not even an automatic...

Revo1 · 12-17-2010, 01:48 PM

Oh snap! It's actually arrived...

PB3 · 12-17-2010, 01:55 PM

Wow, 5k for the wheels!

LAWMAN · 12-17-2010, 02:11 PM

yep,glad im not a 100% vert fan,....i sure would not be able to afford the one i built,

Cam#7 · 12-17-2010, 02:23 PM

I don't see a way to change the convertible top from black to beige? A dark red with beige interior and top is always classic looking in other convertibles.
