London's First SS Arrival! Pics Added! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Riderover40 · 06-04-2009, 12:19 PM

So today I am going to be expecting that I will get an email saying my Workbench update shows built, a VIN, and expected delivery. I do get an email from my salesman...... says "call me" ! I'm thinking something's up, watch my Baby Blue get bayed for QC.....I make the call. Sean asks if I am sitting down, "Yep I am !" SO he goes on to say "Your car is getting on or is on a truck today for delivery !" WoW !

I am in London Canada and Oshawa is only 2-1/2 hours away.......is it possible! He goes on to tell me the company shipping has one holdover so tomorrow or Monday I could see it arrive. That's cool cause it is almost earlier then my expectations ! Best thing I could do is go down to the dealership and get the paperwork out of the way....off I go........ I meet and greet, many handshakes cause it is possible that my Camaro SS is wiht the first V8 arrivals in London and my dealership is the first with an SS !!

I finished my business and back to work I go ..... pulling onto the street and Sean waves me back, asks me to pull across the road into their lot. I do, he gets in, he points.... he is pointing to a car carrier, a car carrier loaded with Chevys......WOW! .... loaded with 3 Camaros none the less and one of them is Aqua Blue Metallic ! Yep, an ABM SS beauty ready to off load ! It couldn't have been better, I am there with camera phone in hand and the experience of a lifetime !! Watched it unload, was the first to sit in it, first to turn her over and rev her up !! Awesome Awesome Awesome....

I felt like a kid !!

So all I need is the bank nod, the plates, the PDI, and she's mine for hand off...... likely tomorrow !! ...... What a day !!

More pics after dealer handoff ~~

I literally could not read the op.

Heh, here I thought you meant London, England and that we were about to get an official Top Gear review.

Riderover40 · 06-04-2009, 03:31 PM

Pics added! Better and more pics after dealer hand off ! This color is not justified in the camera lens !!

BackinBlackSS/RS · 06-04-2009, 03:33 PM

KJS · 06-04-2009, 03:35 PM

Congratz and good luck!

It WOULD be interesting to see what Top Gear has to say about it....provided he can keep words like "colonials" out of it.

Hell yea. I gotta say I'm a little disappointed. :-P I expected the same or something similar. Got me all excited..

ABM is so nice. Envy!!

*Camaro_Corvette* · 06-04-2009, 05:22 PM

Very cool!

jr_hoyt · 06-04-2009, 05:31 PM

1) CONGRATULATIONS!!!
2) This is the first pic of Aqua Blue, only because I never looked at the official pics post (because I never considered it for my own). All the miscellaneous pics I've seen online made the color look really baby bluish, which IMO would need to be off set with some white racing stripes or something. HOWEVER, I must say that she looks good. Now I'm kind of excited to see one in person!
3) Congratulations, again!
