I got mine from Powers Swain Chevy back on June 12th. I know of 3 others on here that have their orders on the way or that have picked them up. There is a Black SS on the way that will be here by October that a guy backed out on and just last week I saw a V6 Red with white stripes. What did you order? I know they only had 8 allocations so Im guessing if you ordered in May that you were somewhere in the late 20s or 30s. They said they had like 35 or 40 orders right now and GM made them stop taking them. Ours was the first one they got in. A 2SS Rally Yellow with Black Rally Stripes and painted engine cover. You may be waiting for until at least November or something like that unless they get additional allocations. I would call your salesman to see if you could take over the order for the black SS. We had an order in and a guy backed out on the Yellow one so we took it. I know for a fact they are getting the black one in soon. They let us transfer all our paperwork to the Yellow one and didn't charge anything over MSRP.

Especially if they only had 8 allocations. At the time I didn't know this and they sure didn't give that information.

Brian might I suggest cars.com or autotrader. I was getting tired of waiting on my order since februayr and I emailed several possibilities i found and while alot of them were idiots or BS I did get two msrp offers of existing cars thats closely matched what i was looking for. As of right now they had everything I wanted except sunroof and i am still waiting on my order or to find one with sunroof. I would suggest you might try doing the same.
Edit I should mention I search entire US not just locally, as i would be willing to fly out for my perfect car if its found, you might not be wanting to deal with all that. |

Ordered May 18th from Joe Alcoke in New Bern @ MSRP. Still no movement. I have been assured that they have proper allocations. Who knows. All the guys I've spoken with have been very nice. Sat there on Saturday for an hour BS'ing with them. Talk with a salesman at Kurtis here in Morehead and he could offer no more promise than Alcoke.

I ordered at msrp also, but was just thinking my salesman told me august and if it's going to be august I thought that my status should be moving by now.

I feel your pain. I was told basically the same thing. However I had been lurking on this site since March and knew better.

Someone once said "Knowledge is power". Well I have just enough to be dangerous!
Side note. Saw a car in Swansboro at Stephenson's (2ss/rs, no other options) priced at $44,900. When I told the guy it was worth at most $38,000, he got up and walk out. He also said that they wouldn't sell any Camaro at MSRP. Keep the faith! Andy

Hey Brian2SS/RS, Things may be moving faster for them now or they may have gotten more allocations by now. Im not sure since I stopped keeping track of all that stuff once I got mine. I can tell you that most orders within allocation move to 3000 status within 3 to 4 weeks so there is nothing to worry about so far. After that about 2 to 4 more weeks for 3800 and typically 2 to 4 more for shipping unless something freakish happens and it gets there sooner. I would call Gary Brown, he is the manager there and is very upfront and nice, and ask him how many they are allocated and what number you are on the list. Who is your salesman? Powers Swain is a great dealership but unfortunately the salesman aren't well informed for the most part. All the other local dealers are jacking the price up at least 5k over sticker around Fayetteville and Raleigh. I can tell you that my old order was placed around March 16th and was still at 1100 when we cancelled and bought the Yellow one off the lot on June 12th. We were number 18 then, but I know they had 8 original spots not counting any additional allocations granted. Hope I am helping a little.

Oh yeah, if you see Sandi2010 or stikSS, they too also ordered from Powers Swain and might be able to help you out better than me. I know Sandi2010 is waiting for her car right now. We are trying to have a little get together for the area Camaros so if we do you should come on out.
