Actually it is $1725...Camaro will be quite a bit lower than that. The A6 is currently $1295 on the 2015 Camaro, doubt it will be more than $200 more, even that will be a stretch.

So anyone here agree/disagree with my estimate?

Current 1SS starts at 34,500. I can't imagine that Chevrolet would tack on more than 2 grand, especially when the MSRP for a Mustang GT is 32,300, and a GT Premium for 36,300.

In fact, based on that, I'd say a 36,500 starting price for a 1SS is too high, although I do feel a 1SS should slate somewhere between a base GT and a GT premium....so HOPEFULLY Chevrolet will keep the pricing very close to where it is today.

But anyways...using the above, my configuration and guestimate on prices:

36,500 1SS
1,500 8-speed automatic
1,100 NPP exhaust

That's pretty much the only options I'd add. Maybe blacked out bowties, but that can't be much. I would also add premium audio, but that doesn't look to be available on the 1SS much to my disappointment.

Total price: $39,100.

My sales guy which I've dealt with in the past is telling me he will sell me the car at invoice, so I figure I can knock off around 2 grand for a total of $37,100.

Does this sound accurate to anyone? I'm really hoping the price only bumps $500 to $1,000 instead of the 2 grand estimate I used above, which I figure would be worst case scenario.

Im really hoping I will be out the door at 35k 1ss.

Yeah seriously, you said all new trans, its not. And wrong on the $1895, its $1725

I'm thinking around $39,700 for the 2SS. Hopefully. Soon we will know.

That puts a 1SS A8 NPP at $4,705 over a 2016 base Mustang GT auto...

Even removing the NPP still puts it at $3,600 over.

I cannot imagine GM allowing that big of a gap.

Ford didn't change pricing for the 2016 MY.

I see entry 1SS going from $34,500 (2015 price) to about $35,500 for the 2016 model year.

I think you'll also get the same price bump in the 2SS; from $38,300 to $39,300. They don't want to flirt with entry at $40K - that just looks bad when comparing.

I think an auto trans will bump another $1,500
Magnetic ride another $1,500
NPP (performance exhaust) for under $1,000
I06 - Navigation for about $1,000
white or red interior accent packages $500
premium paint around $500 as well

The add-ons will get you into high dollar territory. GM has a track record of having expensive wheel packages, so I'd shy away from those if you want to keep your payments down as low as possible. Wheels can always be done later.

I don't understand why we keep comparing apples to oranges, the scat pack it not the standard charger, we can agree that both the ss models are going to be greater than the mustang but not that much more if they want to keep customers, I would say we can compare the prices of a 1le to a scat pack but not the base model and the same go for the mustang we can't compare the base model to a gt350.

I might look @ the '16 Camaro 1SS but the closer it gets to $40,000 the less I'm going to be interested, hell when I bought my 2013 Camaro 2LT it was listed as MSRP of around $33,xxx, so I could picture GM using the highly anticipated LT1 motor as a jumping point for a much greater increase in price for the 1SS/2SS ..... I know it has advancements and tech, etc, etc., etc., but to me it's getting too expensive and I'm sure the 1SS will have a starting MSRP, my guess of $36,749 ......

Agree with you , if anything , they should drop the price , just look at it this way

No key to start =2 savings
No key to turn the ignition =2 savings
No Parking brake mechanism =2 savings

Just to mention a few

I hope they are cheaper.

A couple more things to make them cheaper:
Aluminium, new plant,same frame as caddy,smaller overall, etc..

I agree...under $40k for the 2SS. And your price is a $1400 increase over the 2015 model, noway it will be anymore than that.

I agree with you price guesses, especially in the very beginning, for us early orders. Might increase a little more later on in the year, but GM is not going to want to advertise the 2016 with a bug price increase over the 2015.
