You did a pretty good job with your estimates Rookie, just a little low on the shifter and quite low on the coil-over Pedder's shocks/springs.

This is an awesome package. I've ridden in it, and it's pretty darn fast. Handles great, too.

DkknightX: Matt Berger's name would not be on the other cars, only this one. It's his prototype. That badge on the dash would just give the car specs and car number.

Thanks man! Didn't know that. I thought it would be kind of strange to have all that badging.

I believe they are moving the original back tires to the front and putting two new larger ones on the rear.

LOL, that's funny!

Oh, by the way, Berger does NOT rhyme with hamburger. I sounds like Ber-jer.

I'm curious, many have said they don't like the wheels. Why? They're high dollar Forgeline Wheels, very nice, with custom made (by Forgeline) center caps.

To me its not really worth it. I can see other people finding value in it, but for me I think I would pass. To me it looks like all the stuff anyone else will do....just not that original. It looks like they said well if ________ customizer is going to have badges, paint work, wheels and a supercharger we should do those things too. Just my opinion.

Are those SS emblems on the fender the same as the ones on the front and rear from the factory? I would like to do something like that to mine, as many others have done here on the forum. I think I would like to have them be slightly larger than the factory emblems.

I'm sure there are people here that find this Camaro to be something special and to each is own. But to me it's just not that appealing. The wheels DEFINITELY have to go. They are ugly... But the rest seems to be on point w/ everyone else here as far as mods. Again nothing special. MHO.

The SS emblems on the fenders are not the same ones as on the rear and in the grille. They are custom made for Berger.

Got to love a Chevy dealer stepping up to the plate. I'd love to have one of those in my SIM color- just not quite do-able on the cash front- I like not having payments.

So many dealers have been bashed for the ethics they have shown in selling the Camaro for high dollar- atleast this one is giving you something for it. I know I didn't allow my dealer to put their name on my car- but this one would certainly go on.

And the Rookie did a nice break down showing you that your not overpaying. Might not like some of the features, but they are NOT over priced.
