Price guess in Canada. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Well, while I am waiting for the price to be announced, I thought I would try to do some calculations with some figures gleaned off the Chevrolet Canada website in the build section.
First, I decided to compare the Caddy CTS to the CTSV. The base price of a CTS is $42,240.00. Base price of a CTS-V is $72,720.00 for a difference of $30,480.00.
So, If you take the base price on a 2LT Camaro of 30,480, and add the difference you come up with $63,115.00.

The second comparison I did involved taking a base price of a 2SS of $44,100.00, and add options from the Corvette and Camaro option list such as magnetic suspension ($2900.00), Performance brake package (575.00), dual mode exhaust (1,555.00), Performance wheel/tire combo (2500.00),
ground effects (1895.00), RS package (1,380.00), short shifter (440.00), interior stitching (455.00), spoiler (760.00) I come up with 56,559. Now this total does not include the LSA supercharged engine upgrade,gauges,or hood, all of which I could not find applicable pricing.

To be safe, I figure the engine upgrade for at least 7,000.00, and the aluminum/carbon hood for 1500.00. The gauges 380.00. Don't ask me where I got these prices they just seem reasonable to me. So this way the total comes to $65,439.00.

Taking the two above prices and averaging them I come up with an approximation of $64,277 Canadian for a 2012 ZL1.
For our neighbors to the south, This would be roughly $58,000 to $60,000 depending on any dollar exchange fluctuations.

So my predictions are $64000.00 CDN or $59000.00 US.

My guess for the ZL1 would have been ~$65K Canadian + taxes and dealer fees of course.

That's based on the taking the price of a fully loaded 2SS with RS package, short throw shifter, stripes, cargo net, floor mats and polished wheels ($44,230.00 CDN) and adding the basic Callaway package ($17,995.00 USD x 1.02216 = $18,393.00 CDN) for a total of $62,623.00. Then add on another $2,500.00 for the magnetic suspension and you get a grand total of $65,000 + taxes.

That price is going PO a lot of Canadians, but we should be used to getting bent over and ridden hard by Canadian car dealers.

I would say your bang on......I figured roughly 65k....Still getting one lolz

70k out the door , Plus $250 for custom plate

If you see a yellow ZL1 drivin around Toronto with PONYEATR plates ...That will be me

Ill forgo stripe,If it comes with the polished Carbonfiber slots and no polished wheels for me ...make mine black!

If I can walk out the dealership door for less than 70 grand, I will be amazed.

Does Canada do the gas guzzler tax?

Hmmm.....To tell you the truth don't know....but, we get taxed on the tax thats on the tax

People from Ontario are known to be dumber than the rest of Canada.They just voted in Mcguinty again. Other than being a chronic liar,he loves to tax the hell outta us!

djsnoflake · 10-13-2011, 09:52 PM

Yeah, I kinda fiigured the 20% "You live in Canada so pay more" premium we get would be enough, but why not screw us some more!

TJ91 · 10-13-2011, 09:54 PM

65k sticker is my guess

No lube, just spit and push. But hopefully GM says they love you after!!

I'm hoping that I can use our family employee discount for the ZL1 when we order. Saved beaucoup bucks when we got the SS.
