I have read that thread. The description doesn't make me happy. At least not the exterior/interior. I am giddy like a school girl about the performance upgrades.

Quote:

Inside, the 1LE package incorporates the ZL1’s flat-bottom steering wheel, trimmed in sueded-microfiber and designed for easier heel-and-toe driving on the racetrack. The quick-acting, short-throw shifter from the ZL1 is also trimmed in sueded microfiber.

The ZL1 after complaints made this an option. I hope this is an option. This is what it looks like in a ZL1.

This looks like a teenage girl drives it. I am not sure I can live with the seude.

This interior from the press release I like and it doesn't look like the one up top.

Just my $0.02, but since the paint and interior colors from the Dusk Edition Camaro from SEMA are now available for 2013, what are the odds that the wheels from that Camaro are the new 20" style?

Just a guess/speculation on my part, but would make some sense, no?

My thoughts exactly. I haven't paid for those things yet for my 1LT, and the leather wrap isn't that big of a deal but the PDIM and remote start being standard now kinda irks me. That's a few hundred bucks right there.

The '12 has things standard or new that the '10 and '11 don't have as well (like the spoiler and tinted rear lenses all the way down to the LS trim, power seats on both sides in the 1LT, the leather trimmed dash, etc.) so I can't complain too loudly. It's all good.

Would be nice to be offered a loyalty discount to upgrade things for existing owners, where possible (like the previously mentioned PDIM, remote start, MyLink radio, etc.).

So you expect car companies to not improve their cars every year? Sorry but that makes zero sense! Every year they need to be making improvements to stay competitive!

I think my trade in should be good considering it only has 4k miles on it so far.

I like your thinking. Might just have to do the same thing.

Hi Becky,

We have been talkin alot lately about the Pedders suspension Street XA kit and my 2012 2ss was built yesterday.. now today I see this:

GPS Navigation option available on all LT, SS and ZL1 models with MyLink1.. I am a sucker for technology and want this in my car... is it possible???

Thanks,
Tim

Could very well be possible. Maybe they intended it to be an option? Still hard to believe they would change the stock wheels to something different.

...but change could be good...

Um, no, I don't expect car companies to not improve things. Did you read my whole post or did you just stop after the first paragraph? Way to paraphrase to support your opinion though. Kudos.

About when would the first deliveries take place? I guess what I am getting at is do you think it would be possible to get a 2013 to me before Camaro5Fest?

I think the dual mode exhaust will be an option. How did Chevy screw you?
Every new model gets an upgrade, that how they keep selling cars.

LOL.. yeah I'd still have my 1st Camaro if they didn't keep upgrading...

Some people will never be happy. That means every electronic company screws you too with how rapidly technology advances....

Curious to see the new wheels.
I want a set of those black 10-spoke wheels that come on the ZL1s.

TuLe · 04-09-2012, 02:14 AM

no sight of green?

Bumblebee2012 · 04-09-2012, 09:38 AM

I want my money back on my 2012 2SS TF3 edition. It's useless junk now! May as well be a rusty Cavalier in the garage :-( (jk)

I am sure somebody else saw these wheels in the Camaro display at SEMA last year but could be a clue.

PYROLYSIS · 04-09-2012, 08:19 PM

It would be cool if they made these available for 2013.

ThatGirlFriday · 04-12-2012, 08:59 PM

OMG THOSE wheels rock and i hate 99 percent of wheels.
