You have a collector's item!!!! From the factory, a bona-fide "one of the first to be produced" SS Camaro!!! Assumiing everything works "as advertised", and you maintain this car immaculately, in 10+ years, your car will BE UNIQUE. Unique even among camaros. It already looks and drives awesome, the reviews bear that out. Whether or not this car is super popular, or not produced in a few years, having an ORIGINAL SS CAMARO with weights over the calipers makes your car special! I gotta believe that "later fixed versions" of the camaro just won't be as special to those core Camaro enthusiasts or collectors. I hope some people are smart enough to not mess with this, and you will truly have a rare excellent car...
Just my two cents...

While anything can happen, I highly doubt the collectibility of the Gen5 Camaro and certianly not in as few as 10 years. More like 20 or 30, at a minimum.
I'm glad to see GM admit there was an issue and they are working to correct
it versus remaining silent on the subject. In the end, as long as the car manages to stop effectively, I don't see it as a big deal anyway. Much ado about nothing.
