If one dealer says that they don't know anything or says that every Camaro they are getting will go to their people, go to the next one. We often go into our dealership and fill them in on stuff that they don't know, especially about the Camaro...since we are enthusiasts and they aren't. This is your car and you are spending your hard earned money on it...buy from someone that wants your business and not just the closest dealer to you. Even if you have to go a bit out of your way to get it...think about the drive home!!!

My dealer did not know much about it, but he was cool. He asked what my source was and I said GM Camaro team at Indy bash. He said OK, be here Monday morning the 13th and we'll get it done, MSRP.

My dealer informed me that there are only certain dealerships who were given permission to do this, so all of you that are getting the "We had no idea about the 13th" from ya'lls dealers, that may be the reason why...just something to consider

sounds like your dealer is trying to make it sound like he is the only one who can order them

If you fully intened on buying a new Camaro, ORDER ONE no matter what your dealer tells you they are going to get or not get. How do you know what GM is basing the allocation on?

Cool, thanks. I assume that GM thinks that the bulk sold will be the V6?

I guess gas prices will play a large factor too. Are those LED tail lights?
