Wonderful News on my 1SS Convertible - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just got off the phone with my dealer today re: my 2011 1SS Convertible. The GM regional rep called him and said that even though my order was placed in time that they cannot get to it for model year 2011. Would it be ok to switch it to 2012? Of coarse my dealer said yes. For my troubles Chevy is mailing me a $500 off coupon to use towards my purchase along with some other goodies from the dealer. They also told the dealer that due to his and my troubles they are expediting my order to the front and told him that they are not counting my order against his allocation this year. What wonderful customer service from Chevy and my dealer for keeping me informed. So instead of a September/October Delivery for my car I am looking at the second week of August which happens to be when my birthday is.
I am stoked today!!! Let the permagrin begin!!

Another plus is if you trade/sell your car in the next 2-4 years it will be worth more being one model year newer. Everything else being equil of course.

Not planning on selling or trading it anytime soon. I have had lots of muscle cars but this is the first new one. My last Camaro was a 69 SS Vert. And that was way back in 87. 25 years between Camaro's is way too long. Although my 95 Firebird convertible was great over the last 14 summers. TPW of 7/25 so I should have it by the 3rd week of August which also happens to be the week I turn 42. Happy Birthday to me and thanks honey!!

I am so excited. Like Christmas every morning. My baby is born in 3 weeks and hope to have it in 6. Already ordered a new license plate frame, car cover, and splash guards. Trying to talk the boss into the auxiliary gauges. Maybe this winter when it's put to bed for the winter. Damn the permagrin has started and I don't have the car yet. Have a photo shoot set with my new car and my old 69 SS convertible later this summer. Should be fun.
