Yes,been in my garage since Monday.

Mine is black. My son ordered the car and I am glad he didn't order it that way because I hear it would have held up the order. I can't imagine anyone would want to swap for a black one if they paid the 800 up-charge for the carbon fiber one. I will likely place an order for one. But if they do, let me know...

Mine is black, still hoping for delivery this week yet.

Mine is EFC ,i might want to swap it if it's more grey than black.I'll see the car is coming soon!!

Hopefully will have some news about the 2012 MY ZL1's as far as the options ordered, color's etc. along with the final amount produced.

My guess is that will be around 1,000 to 1,100 being made
Yellow will be the least favorite color with perhaps 60 made
Black will be the most popular due to dealers buying that color 200 made

Transmission being a slight nod to automatic at about 55%
Due to constraints longer on the painted carbon hood
Painted carbon hood about 250
Exposed carbon hood about 750
Black rims about 65% and polished rims 35%

So a yellow manual painted carbon fiber hood with poilshed rims
would be a rare combo
Along with the CRT color being the next rarest color due to its late
introduction to the camaro line.

I ordered black, and my order has flip-flopped back and forth for a while now. Holding steady at 3400 for a week now ...

That made no sense to me ...

I wanted the ecf but when ordering the computer rejected the option causr of constraints. Anyhow ordered without to make sure i would get the order. Now my car is sitting in gm holding plant waoting to come home. Not to mention that holdong yard is closer to my house then my dealer.
