The new "replacement" camaro is here and deal is done

Ok, after having all the problems I had with my 2012 ss that was delivered in February, the new 2012 is here. They delivered it today, an exact copy of the problem car, minus the problems I hope. And they even wrote a check for the mods that were done to the old car so I can do them to the new car. Direct trade, not a dime to me. 2800 miles on the old car. Now, 25 miles. Just have to do the mods again, but with the cash to do it, that is just fun for me. i had my doubts, so did a lot of you.......But the deal is done. This is a big shout out to Champion Chevrolet for standing behind their product.

Here are the pics. Identical, except mods.. The painted bowties are already on. Need an appointment for the tint and the exhaust.

stripes have been replaced 4 times, the rear axle replaced, the drivers door and fender repainted, a hole in the dash from the factory.....etc... No longer a new car. This is all with less than 1500k on the car.

Was this a lemon law buy back or was it a great dealer wanting to satisfy his customer?

I think if it a lemon law buy back they are not allowed to resell the car, it has to be scrapped.

It was voluntary. I had straight pipes, 95% tint, lloyd mats. Still have other mods in boxes. Knew the car was getting replaced, so paused on the mods until the new one was here. Gonna do the skip shift when I go to get the mufflers taken out, probably easier with the pit.

Champion always fixed any issues I have had with two cars I've bought from them. Hopefully you don't have any problems with the new ride. I'll be waiting to see you out there.
