2LT IOM, IO interior, black stripes, documenting my changes

Thanks for checking in and seeing my changes.

Little background.

I placed my order for my Camaro on Feb. 17. 2010. 2LT with IOM paint, IO interior, black stripes, automatic.

This will be my daily driver except for winter months. MSRP was $30205.00 and my GM supplier cost was $29360.00. GM employee price was cheaper last year before the new employee reduced pricing took affect this Jan. 2010

I have been reading this forum for over 8 months, gaining as much information about the Camaro as I can to date. After checking one of the other threads (for model builds) I have found that my Camaro will be the only one in Michigan (for the entire 2010 build) with this option package (no RS or sunroof packages for me.)

I knew I wanted a 5th gen. Camaro when I first started helping to manufacture the Body Side Outer (rear qtr. panel) a few years ago. I work for GM on the manufacturing side of the business. Much of what my team and I did, helped to get this great looking panel to the market.

I took delivery on April 7th.

A BIG THANK – YOU to all those who have posted so much great information for me to read and use to make my decisions for my Camaro.

oh, duh, u didnt get the RS package...which means they are 19s i think? lol sry i should have kept on reading

i hope this isn't another stupid question, but since you didn't get the RS package, why is your MSRP still above 30,000?
The SIM 2LT RS that I am looking at is MSRP 30,560 just a question...

Edit: Wait, it's prolly cuz of your inferno orange interior! Right?? haha i should just delete all my posts

Thanks for taking the time to read and post to this thread. And yes you answered your own questions.

No RS package = no 20" wheel package.

As for the cost. I have the IOM paint, IO interior, automatic and the black strips, all of which were extras.

Thanks again for looking.

Beautiful job and well done. I was great to meet you and see your car in person here at the dealership. I'm looking forward to any others changes you have coming. Hope we meet again in June at the Michigan FBody gathering.

Thanks to you and your co-workers for a great job on those sexy 1/4 panels.

Absolutely love them. Dumped the suitcases, dropping 32 lbs. on the back end. Picked up one of the mufflers today to move it in my garage and forgot how heavy one of these cans were.

The MRT's look great from behind and sound even better.

These accomplished everything I was looking for them to do for me.

I can leave for work at 4:30 am and drive out of the sub-division in stealth mode and you can't even tell I changed the exhaust. Once I get on it thou, it makes the sweetest sound and lets you know why you changed out the stock suitcases.
