No, I love the Kenetic blue the most about the car. The HW edition package is just an added bonus!

Did you get the "Camaro" mats and the Black engine cover? All three in a separate box from the car. All mine were installed a week after getting my car. Needed a fast delivery for a trip. Very happy with dealership.

I'd say it's clear that GM had you in mind when they came up with this idea!

Yes I did. But.......other than the black gill decals being forgotten, I was also missing the rubber cup holder liners. Not real impressed with their splitter install due to gaps at four locations.

They mailed the gill decals up to me and I had them installed at a local dealer, I noticed the missing cup holder liners before I left the dealership (they took them from another on the showroom for me). The TSB was done for the splitter gap at the aft edge at my local dealer, but I still have the two gaps at the front.

I'm happy with the sales lady I had and the deal I got, but the prep definitely left a bit to be desired.

My son spotted the HWSE at the Chevy Performance display at our local classic car show. It blew me (and him) away and I went to the local dealership the next day and had one dealer traded in. Funny thing is that we went to the show looking for a '70 Torino. This car snaps heads when you roll down the road, a real classic.

I was on the fence between Hot Wheels or Dusk edition. I liked both. I had a pretty sweet deal setup on a HWE SS 6-speed in Virginia... 15% off sticker plus incentives.

I really liked the Hot Wheels exterior especially the color... didn't care about the Hot Wheels badges at all. I really despised the hot wheels embroidery on the seats. If I bought one, I probably would have removed the ugly exterior badges. The wheels and interior color were ok. It's all about that beautiful exterior color and those black stripes... awesome.

I prefer the wheels and interior on my Dusk... but HWE has better color for sure.

I just like the color. I absolutely would have gotten that color if it were available.

Well I am a big toy collector, I love Transformers and HotWheels......so the natural question for me would be, why you didn't get a TF edition? I was initially looking for a yellow Bumblebee but I realized that being a G1 TF collector actually the only true Bumblebee is a Volkswagen Beetle, and that's what I bought for my wife, a yellow 2012 VW that we turned into a Bumblebee G1 replica. As far as myself I wanted a Camaro (my first american car for me being Italian and just moved to Houston) and when I saw one at the dealer and I test drove it....it was love at first sight.
God bless that blue, my favorite Camaro color by far
