Why would you want any? 91 octane or higher (up to Sunoco Ultra 94). Anything higher or added is a waste IMO. Your PCM will adjust to what it wants anyways.

Thank You!!!!!! Yes I have a workbench order number and the event history says "accepted". I was just a little concerned reading all the posts from those excited about their letters and pictures.

Put $1000 down on one at the dealership i work at in Canada, got my confirmation number, i just haven't decided on all the options yet, I need pictures, please help!!! They were pretty pissed when i asked for employee discount saying "forget it! we're only allowed 5 of these cars!!"

-Gonna be a 2SS
-6 speed Hurst throw
-Hoping for black leather interior with SS embroidery
- I want yellow with the ralley stripes i believe, but the sales department and parts department don't have any pictures of the stripes yet, and can't tell me the difference in the stripe options! i want black stripes like the grey ones on the red car there, i just don't know which ones to tell them!
-I'm scared to go with the chrome 21's because I work in the service department and I've seen more OEM chrome wheels come back looking for warranty than i can remember.

Smile I order my Camaro Today

I just got back from the dealer from placing my order today and I'm #6 of 22 alocated but #2 of the LT.
The delaler is E-mailing me the GM order tomorrow he said.
It's there a web site to track the orders from GM or get notification of the progress.

I ordered:
LT2 RS IOM
sun roof
Hurst Short shift
Black Leather
engine color match cover

I wanted polished finished Wheels but was told by the inventory manager that if I order the RS with the 20" wheels I can't do the polished finish so I didn't is that correct?

Thanks to all for all the well needed info to order.
