R6P question

I took a beating the last time I asked this, but never got an explanation. So here it goes again.

What exactly does it mean when someone says they have a "R6P" camaro? Specifics please.

Thanks and keep please no beat downs on this question.

if you ordered prior to march something... its an early order car.

Not sure why people would give you the beat down. R6P cars got a special welcome kit. Unless you were lucky, you really didnt get anything except a car that sat in QC forever or an allocation that took months longer than it should have.

A nice group got their cars first but in the end I have no regrets on waiting till May to order. Got my car in 11 weeks.

Simply that you ordered the car before production started.

It also shows up on the window sticker and could be considered to be worth more as a collector's item.

Alot of R6P 'rs never got the welcome kit either-including me!!

What did you order and whats your last 5 of the VIN? I ordered May 23rd and got it Aug 13. I bet ours were close on the line.

you are about 1800 cars before me. Weird. Took a long time to get to you I guess. Mine was built Aug 5th. In my driveway Aug 13.

Not 100% sure since mine never arrived. I think it was a Camaro pic autographed by Sang Yup Lee and a nice thank you letter?

The pic had your name and order number on it too... and a downloadable version along with letter. I ordered in Oct and never got mine. We found out there was a deadline for dealerships to request Welcome Packages for those who didn't get them. My salseman sent the required e-mail on the last day and I did finally get mine.

I'm fairly certain this is your dealer's fault.
