I told him I wanted it completely loaded (without paying $4500 for the 21 inch rims) and he said "Great. That will be somewhere around $43,500 before tax and license."

Then he tells me I have to pay another $5000 premium to be on the waiting list!?!?!?! I asked why I had to pay an additional $5000 and he said something about having to be able to keep the lights-on and pay the rent.

I must admit that as excited as I was to own this car, he took the wind right out of my sails by telling me I have to pay a $5000 premium.

I don't have a car right now because I have been waiting forever for Chevy to introduce the convertible, and I need a car. I was excited that finally in 3 months I would finally have a car, but now I am so turned off, I am thinking about passing on the Camaro altogether, and purchasing a non General Motors car.

$55,000 for a car that does not even have climate control or a navigation system!?!? My $200 iPhone has a GPS Nav system!?!?

Am I overreacting?

no!..tell the dealer to jam it!..order one and tell 'em you will a pay sticker!,,and NOT a dime more!....if the dealer says no!..find another dealer!..keep goin' until ya get a "fair" dealer!

Sounds like you either need to wait for the convertible to be out for a couple of months or go to Becky or Camaro Scotty to get one. A lot of dealers probably will try to pull the $3k-$5k over invoice BS for the first 6 months or so.

There are a few dealers out there that are willing to make deal at or below sticker price. If you go in knowledgable and not cocky I have found you can get just below sticker. Just remember these cars are in demand and the inital volumes are small. You are the consumer shop around make the best deal, and say no to deals that really aren't.

Shop around. I was searching for my ride last year and took nearly a month to find someone that was willing to sell the car at msrp, which I was willing to pay. Every dealer in WV and surrounding states that I called wanted anywhere from 3-8k over MSRP which I think is CRAZY! I even had one local dealer go into a big long story about how they are going to the auctions and buying them for 5k over MSRP so they have to sell them for 8k over... WTF ever!!! He said we have the most Camaros of any dealership east of the Mississippi. I told him I hoped he enjoyed looking at them in his lot every day cause he wasn't going to sell me one. Just keep looking and I'm sure you'll find someone willing to sell for MSRP or possibly a bit lower even. Good luck.
