Stay tuned the guy who made these is not sure he will make more, rightly concerned about infringement.

Hi Folks! I just found one of these in a 2013 with 4K on the ODO at a price I cannot shake at. Was a GM owned car..... I take it you guys like this thing. I was taken by surprise how beautiful it was in person. Great drive too, much better than the 2010-2011's I had owned.

Good luck with your future purchase. I bought mine for the color. You are familiar with multiple Camaros so have already found answers to your questions. This might be of assistance if you haven't run across it before. http://buydropstop.com/ Enjoy. I've had over 200 kids have their pictures taken in the drivers seat with their permagrins. Until it got parked in the garage I was still running into those that were unaware of the Hot Wheels Edition Camaro. Can't wait for spring!

Where do you buy that cool hat to go with the Hot Wheels?

Found it on eBay. I believe a Camaro5 member was putting up the auctions.

In May of 2013 I purchased a Hot Wheel Camaro for my son, and this is going to sound crazy, but he is only one. I wish my dad did that for me and had a cool car to give me when I was 16.

Anyway, I rarely drive it; I only have around 2500 miles on it. Most of the time it just sits in my garage. I have been having trouble keeping air in the tires. One of the tires looses air down to 6 PSI when I let it sit for 30 days. I have taken it to the dealer twice, but since I didn’t buy the tire protection plan they give me a hard time. But, with persistence, they do look at my car for free. I just gave them over $40K, it is the least they can do. They said the tire lost a bead the first time. The second time they said the wheel had a lot of burrs on it and they had to grind them down. I noticed the tire was low again and I have only driven it 5 miles since the last time I was there. We will see if they look at it again.

Is anyone else having this problem?

The air pressure changes a lot with the low profile tire, but I haven't had it drop that much. Some times when the temp goes down, the tire pressure is a few pounds low, but come back up after it in the road for a bit. I don't drive mine much either. Only 700 miles since August! Will put some miles on it this spring and summer with some planned trips. I would take it to a good tire shop, you have a leak somewhere!

Took mine in frequently until parked in garage!

Get them filled with Nitrogen. With the colder weather, the air in your tire changes density and will slowly leak out over time. Nitrogen however does not do that with the cold weather.

For example I have nitrogen in my winter tires on my truck. It gets down to -40C/F and I never have a tire pressure issue.

Most major tire shops and dealerships are able to swap the air out for nitrogen for a fairly cheap price, and it is worth every penny. I have nitrogen in the tires on my Camaro and it is sitting in the garage stored for the winter, and the tires look just the same as the day I parked it back in October.
