well i am currently take the time to call every Chevy dealership in the state of WA and OH . so far i have started in WA since that is where i am right now. I received some good info from a sales manager that said he had been at a meeting recently and said the coupe is expected to be on the lots second quarter (aprox. April thru June), and the vert will be after that starting end June begin July. I also heard from another manager that they will start taking orders in November for the Spring. this same guy also told me that the plan is to have 80% V8's and 20% V6's. the V6 option will be the same 3.6L that is in the CTS and he said all V8's that roll out next year will be the LS2, but to expect the LS3 the next year. (sigh a whole year longer ) This guy also kept right on going and told me that GM just retrademarked the name Chevelle !! and he believes that the departing of the Monte that we just may hear rumors or see a new Chevelle . well pitch in what ya think cuz this is will be interesting!! ok now hear are some dealers names to go to in WA (i'm not even close to done but its a start for now...)

Chances are I will be living in Austin at 'The Release' so I will definitely be checking into these Austin and San Antonio dealerships if they will sell at MSRP.
If we grouped by state and sent 4 or 5 buyers there way I am sure they would like to thank us somehow for that. Sooooo.... Tag, ChevyLee, Lets go down to Gunn Chevrolet together. See if we can't get a 3 for the price of 2 or something like that. Alright, thats a little extreme, but if we do go in and all three say "We would like to order 3 Camaros. What deal will you give us." Something good HAS to come from that. |

Actally, let's make that Ancira Winton Chevrolet. Seriously. I bought 3 at $200 over cost and one for $100 over cost from them. If I called the service manager telling him I was coming back to buy a 5th, he'd be happy and surely give me a good deal. But, if I called saying I had 3 or 4 buyers, they could probably give us a really good deal...probably. So, we'd need everyone we could get. This sounds like a freaking GREAT idea!!! Could you imagine? All 4 or 5 of us place orders at the same time to take delivery at the same time?!?! I'd LOVE to make this happen! I'll even wait a little longer to make sure it COULD happen for all the members who wanted to order at the same time.

If it's cheaper to buy it down in TX and drive it back to the bay I will DEFINITELY be out there. Just gotta figure out pricing and/or how much the dealers will charge here. I would tow it back as to not put too many miles on it right off the bat though.

Shit Tag,
If we have Bay Area people talking about coming down to pick one up. We could get a good crowd. 10-15 people from a few states. Does a dealer have a limit on how many they get? I have heard that before, but does the same apply if we are all special ordering them? Can you imagine two big rig car haulers pulling in all loaded with special ordered Camaros just for the guys on this site. it would be nuts We just made a car dealerships day. |

I sent a message to a couple local dealers inquiring about their stance on dealer markup.
I've only heard back from one so far- Bennett Chevrolet 6721 Black Horse Pike Egg Harbor Township, NJ 08234 This was my response from them regarding Dealer Markup- Thanks for your request in regards the 2009 Camaro. It is our policy to limit our pricing on "hot" products to the actual MSRP. We do have a small waiting list. $500.00 deposit required. Cars will be offered in order of Deposit. So, I had to ask about that deposit (I know a lot of people don't think we should put down a deposit, but I had to ask). My followup eMail was this- Thank you very much for the information. I do have a couple questions now though. 1- Does this deposit hold whatever vehicle arrives on the lot? Or does it guarantee the ability to order to my own specifications? (I personally wish to order my Camaro.) 2- Is this deposit refundable if, when details are released, the buyer decides to wait a bit longer to purchase? Or, God forbid, they decide they are unhappy with the production model and don't wish to purchase at all? Thank you again, And, lastly, their response to that- The deposit secures your place in the allocation process, The Camaro would be ordered to your specifications baring any factory restrictions. The deposit is 100% refundable, we will not hold you to the car if it’s not as expected. Thanks again for your interest. |

I don't know how many of you guys on this forum live in, or around, Michigan, but I work at a Chevrolet dealer here, and we're committed to selling the Camaro at MSRP when it comes in.
Same story as you've heard before, you're buying a place in line, and the ability to order the car to your specifications, barring any factory restrictions. Our deposit is a refundable $1000, which, obviously, goes toward the purchase price of the car. Paul Smith Classic Chrevrolet 2929 Burlingame Ave Wyoming, MI 49509 (616) 249-2102 |
