2010 Camaro color and model popularity as of Jan 16, 2010 (from spasticsquirrel) - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just a few days ago Bob Lutz of GM was quoted as saying the V-8's were, contrary to GM's predictions, "80% of sales."

The latest Spastic Squirrel numbers show V-8's are 62%.

There seems to be a disconnect here too.

OUR72GTO · 01-16-2010, 08:27 PM

It was almost 80 % of pre orders but is slipping as the cars approach 100,000 units.

Bob was right the last time some one told him.

glad I have an IBM 1SS, a rare bird indeed

i bought aqua blue because it closely matches my company colors, glad to see it's the rare one and discontinued, what luck

LLntaz · 01-19-2010, 12:59 PM

Seeing those numbers makes me REALLY happy I ordered my Aqua Blue metallic with the RS/SS package with the V8 motor

NOT TO mention the fact that the aqua blue is discontinued booyahhhh!!! already a classic and mine was delivered in Aug 09...

I'm just glad I have my car. It's #1 of 1 for 2010 camaros owned by me. Thats unique enough.

rays1417 · 01-19-2010, 01:08 PM

I might have a rare one. 2LT Aqua Blue Manual Tran. Two things I don't understand, 1) I had a 68 that was almost the same color as the one I now have. Then I think it was one of the most popular colors and now it is one of the least ordered. 2) Why would you discontinue a color with in the first 8 months it was offered?

Total 180 of ABM LS has been ever created. Woot I am the pround owner of 1!

AHZUMSS · 01-19-2010, 01:13 PM

+1

Thanks for the information

Roughly 5300 units 2SS's w/o RS pkg

Nice break down ~ Thanks.

I guess what it's really telling me is if something were to happen to my car I can get another one just like it.

Some how it wouldn't be the same

formuladan · 01-19-2010, 01:30 PM

Hmmmm...... 119 Camaro's just like mine now. Was better back in the day when it was like 1 of 8 nationwide. I'm still one of a kind in South Carolina through. No wonder everyone always knows where I am all the time.

I believe the difference in numbers may be attributed to the difference between the number of cars produced versus the number of cars delivered. Dealer stock and those in transit....

There is one in my town too. LS ABM Manual. I was thinking that would be a rare car.

Scrappy Doo · 01-19-2010, 01:37 PM

So I gotta ask, with IBM only selling a couple more cars than ABM, How did they pick which one got the axe?
