How rare is you Camaro in Canada? - Page 6 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Natureboy · 03-29-2014, 10:24 AM

I have never seen another 2010 or new SS with the colour of mine around here. When I bought it there were only 2 in Canada which the dealer showed me on his special GM dealer site one was in Ottawa and the one I was about to buy. He also showed me the aqua blue metallic was then discontinued.

Even when I took my car to Calgary at Davenport Motorsports for the supercharger package they had never seen the colour and they work on 100's of cars and have seen 1000's in Canada.

Not that this is definitive proof but only time I have ever seen the aqua blue I have here was on a V6 car.

I still have other Camaro owners and non-Camaro owners asking me how I got that colour because they never see another one. Lots of red, yellow, black but never aqua blue.

This was a big reason why I didn't trade in for a 2013 ZL1 last year and just took it in for the performance upgrades.

There aren't many in Canada but your dealer was shooting you a line. I've had mine since June '09. I remember there was at least one V6 in T.O and a 2SS in London, ON but it was converted into a Trans Am.

Ah ok. Well then he must have been visiting the house over near me then because I have seen one a couple of times parked at a house on Duncan. If not...does that mean there is THREE of them here?

There is a "track" at the bottom of Supertest, but it is a small dirt oval. As for a full blown race track, I don't think there is enough interest to build one here.

63 North to site is a track somedays .
