BWProductions · 01-22-2011, 08:18 PM

shawn18 · 01-22-2011, 08:19 PM

I cant believe the Hendrick car sold for more. Its a good thing I didnt have the money for that or you would see me in Indy in a few months!!

ketel0ne · 01-22-2011, 08:23 PM

1st of 50 made.

fisherssmoke · 01-22-2011, 09:36 PM

2 more to match Corvette's 5 consecutive years at Indy, looking forward to May

WS6ADDICT · 01-22-2011, 09:43 PM

Supplier of the vert tops shoulda spit out 4,000 ORANGE tops, then GM shoulda put orange houndstooth in it & sent 1 to every dealer. Instant collectible.
Would be a whole lot better lookin than the 2002 collector Trans Am I've got stuffed away. ( If I wanted black wheels on it, I woulda PUT black wheels on it!!) (lol)

Yeah, it was the first of 50 Indy Parade cars (or whatever they're called) and there will be 500 total Indy Pace Car replicas

Do the 50 parade cars count towards the 500?

And do they all come with yellow tail lights?

Looking forward to seeing it outside on the track.

The idea all along was to do last years car (orange coupe) and this years car as a set, a kinda his and hers deal.

We all really liked the idea of having the stripes come off of the hood and onto the IP (something never done before on a production car), to make this work, they needed to move in board from the expected historic Camaro location (The Driver side stripe is cropped as it is by the gauges).....plus we were able to fit the mail slot into the entire stripe width, verse having it half in/half out.....like what happens when u extend the rally stripes on a V8. Many iterations were shown to management, it came down to what u see here today, and just having the same stripe start from the upper fascia and end at the deck lid cut line. In the end, leadership felt that our Camaro's design was so strong, that there was no reason to tip toe around Mustang & Charger......plus many people were already making their own versions of the stock Rally stripes in orange and putting them on white coupes.

After the Auction today....only 499 left.......

Yep... that was it... as long as you could find a dealer without the dreaded market adjustment..

Thanks for the info... you guys really knocked this one out of the park...

Hopefully you got the dash stripes painted on the replicas too this go around...

The car is badass. However for that rare model they should have gone with painted stripes and close all the gaps in the stripes like on this photoshop pic I did...
