When did you order and when do you expect delivery? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I ordered day 1, October 13th at a dealer with an allocation of 63. I fully expect my Camaro to be in my hot little hands by March 31st at the latest.

I think it'll be interesting to see when people ordered, how many their dealer's allocation was, and when they expect to take delivery vs when it actually happens. What say you?

Ordered 11/18, Dealer has allocation of 8, I was number 7. Unlike TRM0002 I have no expectation of when my Camaro will be delivered, due to ABL bugs, supplier lawsuits, production delays, not knowing which models will be produced first (SS, LT, etc.) I will just be happy when the dealer calls me and says "come in and get your car."

I would like to see my Camaro delivered mid May, but if it's sooner, thats ok, if it's later, that's just fine too. My down payment gets greater each month...

Ya but you didn't just give up your GTO and buy an 02 Impala for the interim (and next winter)... I'm dyin' here...

I ordered it on 10/13, but I don't think that the dealership put it into the system until the 16th. I am really not getting any expectations for delivery in my mind at this point. Not so much because of ABL, etc, because I really think those things will be worked out in time to not impact the 2/16 start date. There are just too many unknowns at this point regarding how they will pull orders, what they will produce in what order, how many cars they will start out producing, how long it will take to ramp production, etc, etc, etc. Plus, I need to get rid of one car so I don't have to park the Camaro outside. I will certainly take it whenever they are ready to give it to me though.

ordered 11-14, hoping for delivery by the end of april but wouldn't be surprised if it took into may. Any later and I'll start getting annoyed.

edit after IDL... looking more like June-July time frame.

djsnoflake · 12-30-2008, 05:29 PM

I ordered like Nov 20 somethingth. I am #1 out of 7 and don't really know when to expect mine. If it comes early though, it will be sitting in the showroom until the snow melts anyways (Damn Canadian winters)

Alarick · 12-30-2008, 05:40 PM

My order was placed on on October 15th, as priority 1, and the dealership I ordered at only had an allocation of 4.

Sometime in March is when I'd like to take delivery, but I'm expecting it to be closer to mid April..

I am just curious how you ordered on 11/20 (5 weeks after ordering opened) and you are #1. Most #1 folks ordered within the first week. Just curious.

And to anyone that says they will get annoyed if they don't get their car by April, I would lighten up your expectations. Those original allocations were through 3Q. Not everyone can get their car in the first month or two. Just hate to see people set unreasonable expectations and then get all fired up at GM later.

CSams · 12-30-2008, 05:54 PM

I ordered mine on 11-28 and I was 2nd of 6 allocated. I hope to have it sometime in April.

Rodrunner · 12-30-2008, 06:02 PM

With the current circumstances surrounding Cadence Innovation, I think it makes no sense to speculate about delivery date. I'll take mine whenever it arrives, and even be glad for the extra time to anxiously anticipate it and save additional down payment dollars.

Croathlete · 12-30-2008, 06:13 PM

Ordered on 10/31...hoping (praying) to take delivery late April/early May.

TaylorRyanSS · 12-30-2008, 06:16 PM

I am going to order in like 2 weeks... I am getting white and I know it says it won't be available til july... but is that when they are going to start building them? So when should I expect to get mine?

I heard that a moose was actually the first one to order there.

Legend · 12-30-2008, 06:29 PM

I ordered on 16 Oct and got my printout from workbench finally on 31 Oct, #1 of 13 allocations.

I hope to see the Camaro late March or early April but will wait as long as I have to! I'm just happy things worked out for me to actaully buy one!
