I saw a red camaro at the local dealership this morning on the way to work.

So I had a crappy day and decided that I would stop by and look at them on the way home. I had no intention of buying one in this economy, but what do you know, they had a black ss that just came off the truck. Long story short, I drove a new black ss home an hour later.

I was so excited I tinkled myself a little on the way home...

Last camaro I owned was a 1985 IROC Z. Before that a 1978...

5k is normal right now if u want it right now off the lot many many dealers are selling over msrp. I mean no waiting u get to take it home thats priceless. In Ontario Canada its illegal to sell over sticker so what they are doing is putting 100 miles on them then selling them as a used car so they price them whatever they want and most are asking 10k+ over sticker. There are guys here who ordered back in oct are still at 1100 bet many of them are at the point they would pay the premium and get it over with. Its your money do what u want with it. One more thing sorry gota do this

The economy must not be that bad for you, if you can afford to pay 5K over sticker.

Congrats on your Camaro man!!

My wife and I did the same thing you did, but 3 weeks ago....walked into our dealer to look and left with one The only difference is we paid MSRP and not a penny more. Man I wish GM would try and regulate this. I know each dealer has the right to do what they want with pricing but...ugh


Anyways, enjoy that beauty!!! It is a fine machine
