Shitting an egg. Um wow bro. I am very excited as well but better to keep those type of analogy's in the chicken coop house so not as to look like a Kentucky fried doff.

i just did it and i noticed some things i want on my camaro that the R/T gets but we dont, like the fobs you keep in your pocket and you can start the car without putting the key in the ignition and it unlocks the door for you when you walk up to the car.

Wow I had no idea companies like Dodge were implementing that tech into their vehicles, that is awesome. Maybe GM will start this in a year or so

. I hope GM puts a "build your Camaro" think on their site on like the 13th so I can spend hours on that even if thee are no prices yet hehe!

headpunter · 10-05-2008, 12:05 AM

Sterling · 10-05-2008, 12:07 AM

kanys · 10-05-2008, 10:52 AM

^^wow that is great news, maybe it may not be too much to hope for this to be an option at launch!

bigwayne3000 · 10-05-2008, 11:03 AM

where are you guys building these cars at and getting "possible" pricing?

shroomjohn · 10-05-2008, 11:36 AM

ON dodges website you can build chally now.

Sizzox · 10-05-2008, 11:44 AM

Yeah i built mine it was about 32,500

jojohn33 · 10-05-2008, 04:02 PM

had a 93 corvette that unlocked the doors when you got close to it......not sure why that feature is not in most cars these days cause I always loved that when I had my hands full I dind't have to drop stuff to get my keys out and unlock the door. Its something that has been around for a long time and now with the push button start its all great not having to dig keys out of your pocket. lazy maybe cool yes

stovt001 · 10-05-2008, 04:26 PM

That feature was ruled out for the Camaro, sadly.

The only thing I'm concerned about is that since the SS is the top performance trim and performs closer to the SRT8 and GT500 than the RT and GT, it will be priced to compete with those trims. We've been told that the Camaro will be priced to be competitive with the Mustang and Challenger, but they never said which Mustang and Challenger.

Apples to apples; SS = GT = R/T

Says who? The SS has the performance and features to compete with the GT500 and SRT8.

TurboTA89 · 10-05-2008, 05:29 PM

I asked Scott this question at Indy. He said it would be priced comparable to the GT.

Wow first post and it is a winner. That is good enough for me!

Good job getting such a direct answer from Scott.

And Welcome!

Camaro68 · 10-05-2008, 10:10 PM

that s what he (Scott) said to me at the Camaro nationals,
about the price to be set around the GT Mustang

Welcome to the site

srtclg1007 · 10-05-2008, 10:35 PM

The Challenger R/T has some pretty sweet features. I love the push button start..... I hope GM has some really sweet options that we havent heard about. Hopefully we'll know some more on the 10th.

I hope its 30 base but I doubt it.

right now the SS is the top of the line for the camaro with no confirmation on a z28 model and nothing in the near future. So that makes the SS top of the line for the camaro. So with similar power as the gt500 and srt8 it looks to be matched with them. Anywayz we will wait for pricing to see whether it is apples to apples or apples to oranges.
